This was our first VRBO and we were extremely happy with our experience. Toronto is our family meeting place between Ottawa and Michigan. We a great long weekend and enjoyed this lovley house. Our combined five children felt very much at home and we were all able to relax and enjoy each other's company. So much better than a hotel for this occasion. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was well equiped and everything was as described in the listing. The train ride into the city was easy. We appreciated the off street parking. We had a fabulous meal at Wallima. There is some terrific restaurants within walking distance as well as a spectacular bakery. We would definately stay here again.

We had a magical holiday week in Toronto at Lissa's house from 12/22-12/29. The house was spotless, comfortable and well equipped. LIssa even decorated the house for Christmas and encouraged us to do whatever we needed to make it feel like home over holidays! Lissa met us to give us the keys and get us oriented and made us feel very welcome. .The location is great and the neighborhood is very safe. We used the subway to get in and out of the city, it was so close and convenient. Winter in Toronto is wonderful - don't be scared away by the weather - there is so much to do! We highly recommend staying at this house.

We are 6 friends that rented the house for a week. Everything was perfect for our stay. The house was decorated beautifully and was well stocked with everything we could need. The location was close to the subway (which made getting into the downtown area very easy) and had a couple of grocery stores nearby as well as great restaurants etc. Lissa, the hostess made every effort to accomodate our arrival time and was very hospitable. All in all, the house was perfect for our stay, we had a great time, and the cost and confort was far better than staying in a hotel.

Myself and five of my colleagues rented the house for five nights during our stay in Toronto for a conference. I have to say that our decision to rent the house rather than pay for a hotel was a very good one. For one, Lissa, the owner, was very hospitable. The house is very nicely maintained with all of the accessories one would need. In addition, the house is in a nice area of Toronto with plenty of restaurants and open areas about. It is only a few miles from the convention center and just a few blocks from the subway. I would certainly rent this property again during a future visit to Toronto.

I had an excellent time at this beautiful Toronto home. I recommend this property and will stay there again when I return! It is located in a great area, walking distance from shops, restaurants and night life. The house was tastefully decorated and well equipped to make my stay comfortable and allow me to feel totally at home. The owner was very helpful with any questions and information.

We rented this house for a week while in Toronto for our a family wedding, it was perfect for our needs. The house is very spacious, posh decor and well stocked with linens, towels, kitchen wares, etc. The property is within a short walking distance from cafes, restaurants, bars, grocery stores and the subway. It takes about 10 minutes to access the heart of Toronto. Lissa's hospitality was outstanding and made us feel at home. We would rent this house again without a doubt.

We travelled to Toronto in May from the UK and stayed at a fantastic place. The house was very spacious, elegantly decorated and in a perfect location. The house was well provisioned which made our stay more enjoyable. It was within easy walking distance of all amenities and attractions. The subway station was less than a 5 minutes walk away and in 10 minutes can take you to the heart of downtown Toronto. We would definitely love to come back to stay when we return to Toronto and we would HIGHLY recommend this property.

Thanks once again for getting me those tickets for Dark Side of the Moon at the Phoenix, it was a very memorable performance by this amazing band of musicians. They are doing "Thriller" this Thursday I believe. I would have no hesitation in recommending your house to friends and family, say a big thanks to your neighbour who was very helpful and welcoming. Thanks to Stuart for coming over too. I really liked the street, it was very relaxed and homely.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was extremely well equipped for our young family for both sleeping accommodations as well as meal prep. The location was ideal with the subway system walking distance away and easy access to groceries/restaurants. We also appreciated the on site parking and nearby playground. We would definitely look into staying again on our next trip to Toronto.
