Firstly, I feel terrible that I am only just getting my review on here for this B&B as I stayed here in April 2009!! Sorry Ted.
I had a fabulous time here. I stayed in Room Three with the exposed brick wall, and from my window I could see the CN Tower and the bright lights of Toronto. The bed was very comfy and the room nice and clean. The resident cat OC was friendly but not intrusive, and the computer downstairs was really handy for catching up with emails and family.
Ted made me the most amazing breakfasts every day! I never knew what to expect, but each meal was wonderful and certainly set me up for my travels :O) Ted was a star on my last day and drove me to the train station for no extra charge, which was greatly appreciated as I was a woman travelling alone.
The neighbourhood was a little intimidating at first, but only because I was on my own and not sure of my directions. It was my first ever solo trip, but I found a great bar nearby one night (The Ben Wicks) where the landlord dragged me out of my corner and made me talk to him about England! The location was actually great – I did a LOT of walking and didn’t use a taxi once (except on arrival from the airport). it was an easy straight forward 15 minute walk to Yonge Street.
I can’t thank Ted enough for his hospitality, his wonderful food and his homely and comfortable place! If I ever make it back to Toronto, and I hope I do, this place is first on my list!
