Guest Reviews
- Stephen (9/5): - We liked the use of the kitchen area which was well stocked with everything we needed. Coffee was good. Loved the freebies. Loved sitting up in the dining area and looking out the window. Everything was well thought out and comfortable including of course our room.
- Penney (8/5): - The beds in the top room were 2 queens, very comfortable. Snacks, coffee, cream, and toiletries are all provided. A lot of little touches with instructions. Fans were available if it was too hot, and extra blankets if it was too cool. Umbrellas available at the door if needed. I was able to use the available parking spot, which was convenient.
- Sandra (7/5): -
- Claverie (9/5): - Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Le logement était spacieux et agréable. La literie était excellente. La cuisine et le salon commun étaient un vrai plus. La situation près du centre ville est idéale pour partir visiter à pied mais est également proche d'une station de métro, des arrêts de bus ou de tramway. La rue est calme et située à 5 minutes d'un super quartier animé où retenti la vie et l'énergie de Toronto !
- Paul (10/5): Boven verwachting! Zo laat je een gast zich welkom voelen in een stad! - perfecte locatie om toronto te bezoeken, dichtbij uitgaan -en eetgelegenheden maar ook de bezienswaardigheden zijn goed te bereiken. Alles was tot in de puntjes geregeld door de eigenaresse, lieve gratis snacks tot oplaadsnoertje voor je mobiel met canadese stekker tot badslippers en watjes in de badkamer. Kamer voor drie personen bestaat eigenlijk uit twee kamers, super comfortabel. Je eigen badkamer is dan op de gang, maar dat is geen enkel probleem. helemaal niets!
- Sophie (9/5): - Bon emplacement pour visiter la ville, proche du métro collège. Lla chambre en duplex et très bien, spacieuse, pleine de produits personnels (shampooing ', apres-shampooing, gel douche, coton-tige,..panier de bienvenue, accès à une cuisine. Petit frigo dans la chambre. Lits confortables. Margie répond très vite aux messages. Vraiment que du positif.
- Agustina (10/5): -
- Carlos (10/5): - Dios les bendiga, el lugas esta muy limpio, se siente como estar en casa, y esta muy centrico
- Marso27 (9/5): - Ubicación. Fue como estar en casa Calle cerrada por reparación, pero se podía entrar en sentido contrario
- Stephanie (9/5): - Die Lage ist ideal, vieles es fußläufig erreichbar und die Metro ist auch sehr nahe.
Sehr nett fanden wir die Snacks zur Begrüßung! Zimmer im Untergeschoß ist relativ kalt (aber es gibt einen kleinen Heizstrahler) und die Deckenhöhe ist relativ nieder.
- LUCIO (10/5): Eccezionale!! - Tutto
- Matthew (10/5): - Excellent location, rooms were clean and there were ample tea/coffee provisions etc. Low ceilings in the downstairs room will be annoying for tall guests
- Leanne (10/5): -
- sophie (8/5): Logement propre et bien situé avec quelques bémols - Logement bien situé et propre Aucun contact visuel avec la propriétaire
Salle de bain privée mais pas dans la chambre
Problème d isolation phonique
Dans la foire au question est indiqué qu on peut se stationner dans la rue ce que l on a fait et 45 dollars d amende. Merci Toronto pour l accueil du tourisme ! Et pour la mauvaise information.
- Caroline (10/5): - L'appartement était vraiment bien situé, et l'accueil était vraiment exceptionnel.
- James (8/5): Perfectly utilitarian place to stay at an affordable price - I liked that I was just steps away from Yonge Street. It was convenient to come and go. I appreciated the autonomy the space provided, I didn't actually talk to anyone in the 2 days I stayed there, which was perfectly fine. I liked the privacy and space I was afforded. It was nice that there was a little binder of coupons and attractions nearby, felt like a very personal touch. I'd genuinely consider staying here again for another trip, or possibly on a family excursion. All of these are minor quibbles, but I felt merited mentioning.
- I'm a tall person and the room wasn't the most tall person friendly. It was easily navigable, but I always had to be mindful of my surroundings. I would have appreciated knowing that in advance.
- I'd have loved if there was a fan in the room. There wasn't much in the way of climate control in the basement space. As it was the basement suite, I was apprehensive of opening the windows. Not to be super paranoid about security, but being in a busy downtown area and unfamiliar with the neighbourhood, it was something I was mindful of.
- I was a bit surprised that the TV barely had any stations. I sat down to watch the Jays game only to find there was no Sportsnet.
- Emily (8/5): I enjoyed my stay overall. - The host was very helpful when I contacted her. The bed was comfortable, and I was really glad I could open the window. I don’t like it when the windows won’t open. It would’ve been nice to find some food there to make breakfast. I didn’t realize I needed to bring my own, and it wouldn’t have been very convenient to do that.
- Matthijs (9/5): -
- Genevieve (9/5): Close to transit, tidy and comfortable - Close to transit, liked that both beds were separate alcoves. Shower was great! Host was very quick at responding to queries. The single bed mattress needed a smaller comforter. It was too big and kept getting caught on the bed.
- Fiona (8/5): In a nice quiet street - Although close to the centre of Toronto, the property is in a quiet residential street with no traffic noise.
Close to public transport and walking distance to restaurants and shops.
It was very convenient to be able to use the washing machine and dryer in the basement. The "external private bathroom" required crossing the landing and unlocking the bathroom door with a key to get in and out, which was a bit inconvenient.
- tadashi (8/5): - 清掃が行き届いていて、とても快適に休むことができました。周辺もダウンタウン付近ですがとても静かなので、ぐっすり眠ることができます。ウェルカムミールも美味しかったです。 腰掛けて使うテーブルが小さいので、使いづらい印象がありました。
- Jens-Philip (8/5): -
- Elis (9/5): Indico e voltaria mais vezes. - Fomos muito bem recebidos. Limpeza impecável. Cafe, chá e alguns snacks de presente foram ótimos. Haviam muitas informações sobre passeios e dicas disponíveis. Local calmo, próximo ao metrô e de fácil acesso a pé para vários lugares. Ficamos no quarto do sub-solo e me senti um pouco claustrofóbica no início. Mas depois vimos que tem janela e ele é bem arejado.
- cyril (8/5): -
- Stefan (9/5): - Ruhige Lage in der lauten Stadt.
- Stella Maris (10/5): -
- Chris (10/5): Easy - Great location
- Susan (7/5): - Location Poor wifi connection
- Danae Wendolyn (10/5): - It was super easy and clear the communication with Margie. The room was perfect , we had enough space to opened two big luggages (there is no elevator, only stairs). We had a very clean room and bathroom . Bathroom included all, towels and ammenities. Furthermore, we could grap a cup of coffee anytime for free and Margie was so kind to leave us some snacks and water for free in our room. Excelent service! Finally the location is directly in the centre, walkable main attractions in Toronto.
- BML (7/5): Endroit idéal pour visiter Toronto à pieds ! - Excellent emplacement dans Toronto et le sentiment de pouvoir se sentir comme à la maison dans une rue calme et arborée :-))
Les petites attentions à l’arrivée avec une corbeille
De courtoisie ! Chambre en sous sol assez exiguë pour 2 … peu de charme ne correspondant pas du tout à photo sur booking …aucune vue …obligation de baisser la tête par endroit pour ne pas se cogner au plafond …literie très moyenne … dommage car beaucoup d’attente au vue des commentaires et des photos mises en avant !
- Grazia Martire (8/5): - Very comfy bed, amazing shower, perfect location, good communication 👍🏼 Bathroom a bit dated, despite room available in the room, no wardrobe.
- Adam (8/5): Worth it given the location - Location was great, price was competitive, room was great. Loved the loft, fireplace, brick, big bathroom. Due to the building's age, noises carry. Could hear everything else happening in the house, though I wore earplugs to sleep so not a huge deal. Room was clean, but bathroom showed it's age. Lots of yellow in shower, some signs of mold mildew.
- Stefanie (9/5): Perfect place to stay for a Toronto sightseeing trip - Best located Townhouse right in the city !
Very clean und Margie a lovely host.
- Frédérique (10/5): Emplacement au top - L'emplacement du logement est idéal pour visiter Toronto à pied. La rue est calme et la chambre est bien équipée et confortable. Les échanges avec Maggie étaient réguliers et constructifs.
- Stella (8/5): - Great location, easy walkabilty
- Walter (7/5): -
- jthomasgregory1 (10/5): Perfect place in a perfect spot! - The room was huge. The bed was amazing. Perfect location. I LOVE this place. I will definitely be back. Thank you!! Nothing!
- Francois-Alexandre (8/5): -
- Suzie (9/5): - Lovely space with two huge comfy beds and great bathroom. Excellent location on a lovely street close to shops and great places to eat. WiFi was a bit slow but Margie reset and sorted it out.
- Patrick (8/5): - Lage direkt in der Innenstadt
- Randall (10/5): Little jewel in the College Park area. - Great communication! Margie is a wonderful host. Super clean. Nice basket of goodies. Great shower! Bed was very comfortable. Easy check-in and check-out. Nice and quiet. Close to TTC. A+++ Can't really think of anything!
- Eve (10/5): Great, appreciate all Margie’s help! - Great location, so handy to be in the city
- Corinne (9/5): Très contents - L'emplacement de la maison de Margie est idéal pour visiter Toronto. Notre chambre était spacieuse et les équipements à disposition dans la maison vraiment nombreux et très pratique. Comme je suis handicapée, nous avons moins apprécié les escaliers pour accéder à la chambre mais c'est ainsi dans les maisons typiques de centre ville.
- Nicole (8/5): - L’emplacement est absolument top, près de tout mais dans un calme absolu. La chambre était très bien aménagée et décorée avec soin. Dommage qu’elle soit au sous-sol. En fait c’est un garage semi-enterré transformé en chambre
- Ines (9/5): Wir würden wieder kommen - Margie ist eine super nette Gastgeberin.
Die Lage ist perfekt. Ein kleines Townhouse im Zentrum. Es ist alles fußläufig erreichbar.
- Christopher (10/5): -
- jennifer (6/5): Stay was ok but did not suit my needs. - Short walk to a supermarket, free use of laundry facilities, nice and quiet. I found there were more flights of stairs than expected, and not I had not expected to go up stairs and need the key to use the private bathroom. I should have done more research.
- karine (10/5): Chambre très confortable et très bien située rien à dire c’était parfait ! - Bien situé, appartement très joli et confortable. Literie de qualité. Salle de bain très grande et douche avec un bon débit. Salle commune et cuisine commune très pratiques. Le frigo est très petit mais pratique tout de même. Nous recommandons !
- Xavier (8/5): - Tout était parfait. Margie a toujours répondu très rapidement à toutes nos interrogations. L’emplacement de l’appartement est parfait car proche d’un supermarché et assez central. Seul bémol le prix de la nuit un peu élevé. Ras
- Giacomo (6/5): -
- andrea (8/5): - I was pleasantly surprised to find the room to be quite spacious and very sweet lovely pleasantly decorated. An enclosed and private patio with four chairs and a coffee table was adjacent to the room. I was terribly thirsty when we arrived, so I was happy to see that there was a couple of bottles of water and chips and cookies and juice and lollipops, waiting for us. A few different choices of coffee were provided. The shower worked great and toiletries such as face soap, shampoo, and body soap were also in place. I would definitely come back again. Thank you Margie.
- HAU LING (10/5): - Very convenient location. Good communication with property.
- Mathilde (8/5): - Emplacement idéal, facilité d'accès, bon équipement Beaucoup de poussière dans la salle de bain, chambre et cuisine
- Gema (10/5): -
- Alejandro (10/5): -
- Herb (9/5): - Margie's place was perfect for our stay. Conviniently located and comfortable place
- Martha (10/5): - The location was great! The townhome had everything we needed and we really enjoyed our stay.
- Véronique (9/5): - Excellent emplacement, le check in est facile. J’y retournerais sans hésiter. On entend beaucoup nos voisins.
- Nicolas (9/5): -
- Fernando (9/5): - Una ubicación fantástica para visitar el centro de Toronto a pie. Una casa con muchas comodidades y en una zona con muchos servicios. Precio competitivo para lo que se encuentra en Toronto La llegada y la salida del alojamiento en coche se complica por el difícil tráfico de Toronto. Si tienes que hacer algún desplazamiento en coche hay que planificarlo bien
- Verified traveler (6/5): Small room and bathroom - The room with the queen size bed was extremely small, which made it uncomfortable. The bathroom was extremely small as well.
- Nadine (9/5): Great value stay in central location! - Checking in and out was easy. The contact with the host was very friendly. Margie sent us a message with all the information about how to get into the house and let is know when the room was ready. We stayed on the second floor in a family suite (bedroom with queen sized bed and an adjoining room with a single bed). The room was located over the room with garden access, so we had a lovely view from our window into lush greensand surrounding the backyard. We had to leave the room to access our private bathroom. It was directly in front of our door, and there was just one other room on the same floor. We never encountered anyone walking back and forth. Downstairs there was a kitchen well stocked with tea and coffee. There was also a big dining table where we met some very nice fellow travelers in the morning. The area was quiet but close to a busy street with restaurants and stores. We found an amazing ramen place nearby. There was also a bus stop and a subway station close to the house.
- David (9/5): Great place, price, location - Location, attention to detail, price, comms, temperature, quietness Nothing
- Matar (8/5): Very good -
- Jeremy (6/5): Great central location with clean amenities, but be aware, this is a share house that you could potentially be stuck wit - Fantastic location, very central to Yonge Street
Clean property
Responsive host
Parking available Be aware that this is a share house, and we unfortunately had very poor guests that were sharing the other rooms.
They were disruptive late into the night with loud noises, left food scraps and rubbish all over the common area in the house, had personal items thrown across the floor in the common areas, especially at the front door.
Whilst this isn’t the hosts fault, be very aware that this could happen to you. The hosts did their best to control the situation.
- Mamun (8/5): Very good -
- Kristen (10/5): This is the perfect spot to access the best of the city without being stuck in a generic downtown hotel - Amazing location, perfect amount of space, incredible shower! Nothing
- Jeffrey (9/5): Superb -
- Pam (8/5): Very good - Nice and cool, after the heat of the city, staff very welcoming, very clean and tidy
- Robert (8/5): - This property was certainly value for money. My room was smallish but comforatable with the added feature of private garden. The communal kitchen was well stocked with coffees/teas/etc. There are very many restaurants within easy walking distance.
- Katrina (10/5): Exceptional - We had a wonderful stay. I loved the little extras. The snack bar with drinks waiting for us, Q-tips in the bathroom, etc. I would definitely stay here again. The ceilings were low & I bumped my head a couple of times, going on & out of the closet.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Cute Building and Great Location - The place was clean and the location is great! Lots of food and things to do nearby. The host was friendly and instructions were clear and easy to follow. Unfortunately there is no AC so it can get a bit warm since it's a loft. There were two fans which helps but I imagine it would be quite warm during summer.
- Kathryn (9/5): Great location.Lovely property - Great location. Nice room. Only problem we had was couldn’t get any TV news in English. Never saw the host or other guests but good instructions and lovely decoration. Need TV instructions. Couldn’t download the app.
- Byron (10/5): Exceptional - Great location; able to check in early; perfect size for the two of us.
- Connie (9/5): Superb -
- Chris (10/5): - Nice setting and convenient to downtown. Walkable to business centre of city and close to TMU. Room is compact while outdoor garden suite would only be useable in summer/fall.
- Alexis (10/5): Exceptional - Great location. Very reasonable price. Host is responsive and nice. The room was very clean with all the amenities plus some extras.
- Elena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anne (8/5): Great location and parking is a bonus. - Internet is spotty and not reliable. This should be updated. Kitchen is sparse and needs wine glasses, juice glasses, larger bowls, etc.
- Emily (9/5): Superb - Great location to access the city center and some highlight tourist spots, and an absolutely adorable place! The neighborhood is quiet, and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Staff were also quick to respond to any questions we had during our stay.
- Lori (10/5): - I stayed in the single room on main floor. Very tiny bathroom but functional. Would be tight with 2 people but good for 1. Only room for 1 vehicle so if multiple guests you’ll have to look for parking off site.
- Alison (7/5): Good -
- Pierre-marc (8/5): Very good -
- Kelda (10/5): - Only 12 min walk to Eatin Centre. 45 min walk to Rogers Centre.
- Harley (8/5): - Margie is a very kind, sweet and caring woman who provided a clean room and as well as use of the kitchen. I personally did not use the kitchen as I come from a very small town and enjoy eating out at restaurants whenever I get the chance but, I definitely appreciated that use of the kitchen was provided. Although I was a little bit disappointed that the advertisement was a bit misleading but that could have been a fault of my own. I did not read into other reviews and such. I was expected a hotel-like environment but nonetheless, I enjoyed my stay here. Margie has went above and beyond to ensure that my stay in Toronto has been nothing other than great and comforting. I missed my flight the day I was supposed to check out and although Margie did not have to accommodate me whatsoever but, she allowed me to have a late check out without issues. The house, kitchen and room were all very clean. Only thing that I would have changed, is to make it easier to go out for cigarette breaks but that is my own personal preference. I would recommend to anyone as the location is right in downtown Toronto. I stayed for a conference which was less than a 5 minute walk away. I have stayed from Monday right until Thursday evening. Thank you so much Margie! Appreciate you and your kindness. :)
- Leanne (9/5): Liked it & would recommend to others - Well presented townhouse convenient to transport for a city stay.
Felt secure & instructions were clear & easy to follow. Up & down a lot of steps
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice place. Good accoutrements.
- Jarod (10/5): - Clean, quiet, comfortable. Excellent location
- Sally (7/5): Homey and good Downtown location. - Room was a good size, with a second room. Windows opened onto a back yard. Bed was very comfortable, although pillows weren't great. Shower was great. Location was good. Quiet except for a "mash up" Saturday night. Nice to have a kitchen to make tea. Because it was a town house, felt like I was staying at a friend's house. Took me a while to find the bathroom which was up a couple of stairs, labelled "Private." Finally realized that it meant private to my room. Couldn't adjust the heat. Bathroom needed a deep clean. I threw away a clump of hair in the shower and had to clean some black gunk from the overflow in the sink. Always feels odd when you don't meet the host.
- Lisa (8/5): Excellent location - Excellent location on a quiet leafy street right next to Yonge. Subway station minutes away.
Room itself is small and basic but has everything you need including en suite bathroom. Host left us some snacks and drinks which was a nice touch. Our room had access to a back garden/patio which was a nice space to relax in. Shared kitchen was well stocked with tea and coffee. There's a mini fridge in the room as well.
- Ching (8/5): Very good - This is my second time staying at Margie Townhouse and in the same unit. The location is great for me because it's close to a relative I was visiting. There are lots of restaurants around and I love Loblaw supermarket which is a short walk away. Having a small shared kitchen to use with coffee, tea and creamer provided was nice although maybe because it's weekend, the creamer was replenished. I also like that there is a smally fridge in our suite without having to use the common fridge in the kitchen. Because of a late flight out of Toronto, we were able to leave our luggage and pick up later in the day. Nothing I didn't like but it would be really nice if there was laundry facility especially since there isn't a laundromat close by. It would be inconvenient I want to stay beyond 3-4 days.
- Brandon (6/5): Pleasant - I did like that the tv never had much of anything to watch when in the living room and the bathroom shower head wasn’t working the best and the shower tiles was not in good condition and should be changed
- Susan (5/5): Passable - It was clean. The location was OK Not at all what we were expecting. More like a share house. We were in a basement without air-conditioning or a working TV. Steep steps down.
Never met the owners. They left notes.
- Heinrich (8/5): Very good - Had all that I needed. The room had a lower ceiling in one section where I had to bend down to avoid bumping my head.
- Elina (9/5): Superb -
- Beverley (7/5): Great place to stay if you don’t mind walking up several - Location to eateries in down town Toronto
Quiet neighbourhood
Character building & furnishings
Extra drinks & treats provided by host We weren’t aware of the number of staircases to climb with suitcases - understood only one to get to room.
- Kathleen (2/5): Very disappointing and very expensive. - Nothing Noisy, shared house, not advertised for what it was, said there was a garden but you could only get to it from a bedroom which was used by another guest. You could hear showers from other guests, the tv didn’t work
- Shanell (9/5): Superb -
- Macdonald (10/5): Excellent location and comfortable accommodations . - Location and flexibility Nothing
- Worryequalwrinkle (6/5): Convenient location, but it’s overpriced for the quality. - Free welcome snack and water / Luggage can be stored temporarily after check-out / Good location for walking / Large bathroom Slow WiFi / Can't change room temperature (need to use fan) / Share a home with other guests / A bed that makes noise even with small movements / Two broken clocks in the room
