Pros: The place is located in a quiet neighbourhood, location is good and not far from downtown. There are many restaurants close by and business in general. The location was clean. We did not meet the owner. You receive the code on the same day of your arrival close to check-in time. Then, ensure you have data. We travelled from Europe to Canada and were ready to enter the place at 15h30, but we had to wait until 16hrs. Plan your arrival so you do not have to wait like us... nobody wants to do sightseeing with luggage.
Cons: The place is a house basement that was adapted. Therefore, there are only 2 small windows with some paper blinds that you can't open. The unit had a humidifier, which is located in front of one bed. The humidifier has a bright light and makes a constant noise. At night can be a little uncomfortable for the one sleeping in front of it. The place is ok if you travel with family (younger kids). Otherwise, you do not have privacy. Maybe a screen or curtain could help.. I guess it depends with who are you traveling with. The couch is not suitable for sleeping. Ensure that if you are 4 people, 2 people need to sleep in each bed provided. Otherwise, the sofa/bed is very uncomfortable. Suggestion: to provide glasses to drink water..we had 4 cups, but better to have cups and glasses. Overall ok, but for the same price, we had found places much more comfortable, nicer.

Enjoyed stay.
Pros: Excellent location. It's very roomy and spacious. Spotlessly clean. Safe security. Most kitchen items needed were supplied.
Cons: Lack of touches, eg There is only 1 bed pillow each. (Very flat) No sofa cushions, so not so comfortable on your back when sitting down. Only 1 mug was provided for tea/coffee. We were 2 people staying and had to get disposable coffee cups. There was no control over when and what temperature air conditioner was. Extremely dirty windows to look out of. Could do with clothes dryer rack or line for small items.

Pros: I had the whole apartment for myself as a solo traveler, 2 bedrooms, a private bathroom and a kitchenette. It was very clean and spacious. The location is 2 min walk from the streetcars. Area feels safe to walk around in. The 7/11 is a 2 min walk, coffee roaster 2 min walk. Value for money! Will certainly stay there again. Great location in terms of accessible to almost anywhere. Owner is very responsive! Thank you for that. Kensington Market is walkable and has great food. The shower had all amenities needed and towels provided. VALUE FOR MONEY! You cant go wrong staying here.
Cons: Its not that I didn't like these things, its things to be aware of. The address given by owner is 163 and thats what you book but you are only given instructions at 16:00 sharp and your address changes to number 161.. side door. Depending which apartment you booked. Code given seems to never work first time, it happened to me and from reviews it happens to almost all customers. Very steep step down to basement apartment and the light comes on a bit to late for you to see where you must be. Noise travels through the vents, normal levels but be aware of them before you book. Smell also travels through the vents, had a burnt garlic smell the second night, i did not use the kitchenette... the beds are super hard, the couch is super hard. There were stains on some of the towels but I just didn't use them. Going outside using the stairs you are in darkness until your hand touches the outside door doorknob.

Pros: Amazing location within walking distance of lots of fun activities. Close access to public transit. Very accommodating host in a wonderful neighborhood.
Cons: Upstairs neighbors were a bit noisy, but it happens. That didn't deter from us enjoying our stay. We definitely plan to return next year if the opportunity presents itself!
