Boasting garden views, A Stunning Chalet Style Home features accommodation with patio, around 6.7 km from Aviva Centre. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The homestay has family rooms.

At first, there's little rules you have to follow but those are for keeping the place organized and tiny, so it'll be fair for the next guests and of course the owner, you'll get use to it, not a big deal. Location is very convenient. 8 mins walk to the bus station, and basically from that, you can access the whole Toronto area (multiple choices: streetcar, bus and subway). Owner and other guests are very welcoming (shout out to Catherine and Wendy). The owner, Mr.Pradeep and his brother Mr.Praveen provided extremely useful information about Toronto, makes the trip easier and better. For example, Mr. Pradeep told me about the casino shuttle to Niagara Falls, saved me a lots of time and money; Mr. Pradeep took me for a walk to get to know about the surrounding environment and I had the first snow slide in my life, It was a whole new experience for me. As a visitor who travel by myself, they're really helpful. My room, Lotus Room, it has a huge french window providing a nice and comfort sunlight. It also has a huge smart TV that you can watch Prime video and Netflix. Everything has been cleanse before my arrival. I got a washroom and a bathroom, if you're a male, considering about other female guests, you might have to take toilet and shower in separated rooms. There's also an opened kitchen with various of cooking tools and a personal fridge that you can make your own meal. Definitely worth the price, the staff, facilities, location and the cleanliness is top-notch. *Recommend visiting here in summer season so that you can have more outdoor activities at attractions. Still, during the winter, you still got Quebec Carnival and Winterlude in Ottawa, and you'll get a complete different view of Toronto from summer.

    - Great host! Dana is amazing. Except from great recommendations, she helped us with check in/out times and was very present and helpful. - Luxurious and brilliantly designed room. The house is also beautiful and historic (it does require some consideration and is definitely not a place for a bachelors party…) - Perfect cleanliness - Great shower and bath (we used only the former) - Good Wi-Fi, big screen TV and comfortable bed. - The house is close to downtown with easy tram access
