YOU GET: Full private use of a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo. Each room has a Queen-size bed with comfy pillow top mattress, two nightstands, closet with wire baskets and hangers. I provide clean, fresh white linens on the bed, and all the clean, white plush towels you need (bath size, personal size and face cloth). The main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with bathtub and rainforest shower head. The guest bedroom has a bathroom next to it, with a shower stall with rainforest shower head. I have hotel size body wash, soap and shampoo if you need it. When you walk in, on your bed will be your keys, fresh drinking cups, a schedule for the free exercises classes in the building, a map to the city.
ABOUT THE UNIT: The condo unit is 1001 sq feet plus a huge balcony overlooking King Street. It's a corner unit with a stunning South/West view of the city, the CN Tower, the lake and overlooking the rooftop patio where the film festival parties happen. It really is one of the best views in the city. If you don't believe me, ask the photographer who repeatedly rents out my place to photograph models in.
ABOUT THE BUILDING: The condo building is Festival Tower - It's the condo above the world-famous Toronto International Film Festival building: TIFF Bell Lightbox. You can enter the Lightbox theaters and restaurants without even having to go outside!
BUILDING AMENITIES: Bring your bathing suit and gym clothes, because the condo has an indoor pool and hot tub (with a waterfall between the two!), full 24-hour gym with TV's, free exercise classes daily, spinning/yoga room, pool table room, business lounge computers and free WiFi and restaurants in the building, as well as the movie theatres of TIFF Bell Lightbox. A schedule for the exercise classes will greet you on your bed.
YOU CAN USE: Please enjoy full use of the kitchen. Full set of fancy dishes, glasses, mugs, cutlery. Kettle. Teapot. High-end Miele fridge, stovetop, microwave oven. I've also got a high-end Miele washer/dryer if you want to do laundry. I even have an assortment of umbrellas for you to choose from. And shopping carts, if you want to watch to get groceries. If there's anything else you need, please don't hesitate to ask me. I want you to feel right at home! I don't have a TV at the moment, but in the business lounge on the 10th floor, there's a flatscreen HD TV you can watch, and there are TV's in the gym on the wall and on the exercise equipment.
ECO AND ALLERGY FRIENDLY: I'm a big environmentalist, so I keep the condo non-toxic, eco-friendly and scent-free. The sheets/towels are washed in scent-free, environmentally-friendly detergent. The handsoap is natural and non-toxic. The cleaning products I use are GreenWorks.
PARKING: It seems more guests are coming with cars now and asking about parking, so I'm going to start offering my underground parking spot to my guests for an extra $25 a night. Alternately, you can look into parking in the TIFF Bell Lightbox public parking, or one of the many indoor and outdoor lots in area surrounding the intersection of King and John Streets.
TRANSPORTATION TO/FROM AIRPORT: Many guests are asking how best to get from the airport, so I'm pleased to offer my friend Jennifer's services. She has a car and is usually available to provide a ride to or from the airport for $30 a trip. Alternately, a cab from Pearson Airport is about $55, a shuttle to a nearby hotel is about $40 per person, or you can take public transit, which would be a bus to the subway, and then the subway to St. Andrew Station.
NEIGHBOURHOOD: The corner of King and John is in the heart of downtown Toronto. The streetcar is literally at your door. The subway is just a couple of blocks walk away. Downstairs in TIFF Bell Lightbox there are world-class movie theatres and wonderful restaurants. Across the street is a block of charming bars and restaurants. Broadway-quality theatres are right next door. More movie theatres are at Richmond/John, as are a Chapters book store, bars, restaurants, and even a bowling alley. The massive Eaton Centre mall is a 15 minute walk away. The shopping and excitement of Queen Street West is just two blocks north. The Financial District is a few blocks East. The CN Tower and Rogers Centre are just a few blocks south. China Town is a few blocks away too. If you want to experience the best of Toronto, you can't find a better location to stay in. Let me know if you want advice on what to check out. I was born in this city and am happy to share my thoughts!
COMING FOR A CONVENTION? The Metro Toronto Convention Centre is about a 3-minute walk down the street.
