The unit was ok. One ‘room’ has no windows or door but we knew that when booking. DIY work in the unit is so bad it’s comical! All cosmetic but still…hire someone who owns a toolbox. Not much around within short walking distance restaurants. CN tower is 20 minute walk for reference so not bad but too far for anyone with mobility issues. Overall it was fine for the price and would probably go back again.

Grand rental with a private entrance.
Truly an amazing property. The unit we had was on the ground floor, with a private entrance. The unit was especially clean, well organized and outfitted. We had a little trouble with the check in. Our unit was locked upon arrival. It took close to two hours to finally get into the unit with help from security. I was impressed and yet annoyed with the communication. My questions were answered by email very quickly. Yet, I was not able to get a hold of the booking agency or the home owner by phone. The back and forth emails (after I repeatedly request a phone call) only added to my check in frustration. I had to cancel a dinner with long time friends. Thankfully, we had time to make our dinner up. Overall, I would stay at this rental again without a hesitation. In advance, I'd let them know exactly when I'll arrive and request someone double check the unit, insuring a smooth check in process

Stay away from this place
Stay away from this place. Paid in full and never stayed there. Hours before arrival I was asked to pay an additional $200.00 via PayPal. (Did not pay it) This company had my credit card on file. Seems like this location is run by thieves and scammers. Never received a refund. Go somewhere else in Toronto.

Dear Doug. We apologize for the inconveniences you faced. We provide self check-in for our guests and have a list of requirements in order to provide our guests with instructions. Please note, that the requiremements are stated on the listing page. Unfortunately, you refused to fulfill few of the requirements, and as such, we could not proceed with the check-in procedure. Regarding the refund, since there was no cancelation request from you, the reservation stayed active, as such, there was no refund. Regards, Kevin. Globalstay team.

This property was advertised as 3 minute walk to Scotia Bank Arena. It was a 35 minute walk. It was also advertised as having a pool and hot tub but we found out once arriving that because we only stayed four nights that we did not have access. These errors in the Hotels.com advertisement need to change.

The location and pool saves this place but otherwise quite disappointing. They charged us for an additional guest (we are two parents with three little ones) and then didn’t leave enough blankets or towels, and only half a roll of toilet paper for a two night stay. Communication was quick but abrupt and often inaccurate (told us pool was on wrong floor, gave us wrong code for parking fob access etc). And the clincher - the cold water was HOT and when I contacted them for help explaining this meant we had no drinking water - they said they’d get back to us in 72 hours, which was longer than the booking itself! Other disappointments included. I be all out blinds and bright lights shining in all night and a very measly shower. But the location and pool were perfect!

Dear Nicole, thank you for the detailed feedback. We are glad to know you enjoyed our location and facilities. We apologize for the inconveniences during your stay. Since we are not a hotel, but private apartments we provide toiletries for the first night stay. It is weird that there were not enough blankets, unfortunately our customer support team did not receive a request for or complaint about the lack of blankets. When we received the complaint about hot water running from both taps, we sent a request to the building management. They provided us with a respond that the maintenance team would arrive in a within 72 hours to investigate and fix the issue. Thank you for staying with us.Kind regards, Kevin. Globalstay team.

The information for this property are not accurate, it is no way the distance to the Scotiabank Arena is a 3 minutes walk. It created us extra expenses that we did not plan for. The instructions are incomplete and you have to figure out each step.

Avoid if you can
The room were not clean when we checked in late in the afternoon. We called multiple times to reach the management. It took another two hours to have the management send a cleaning person. And they do not put in a flat sheet expecting us cover our body directly with the comforter that who knows how many people slept in. Moreover, the dirty sheets were stacked in the closet. Very unprofessional. Hard to reach management. Avoid if you can!
After cleaning, missing flat sheet

The apartment we stayed in was lovely, with a balcony. It was thoughtfully arranged and decorated, stocked with just about everything you might need, including toothpaste which we forgot. I bought some at the convince store across the street, before we saw some under the bathroom sink. Only thing was there was no on site parking. They helpfully included the address for one a few blocks away with probably the best overnight rates for e found in the city. It was good weather so it was fine. It was tucked away in a residential street. Bring a buddy, it you can, as it’s self park and gets a little dark inside.

Spacious clean and modern with access to pool gym and jacuzzi etc. but the communication of where my room was absolutely abysmal! Given no information until I asked for it, the person who answered the phone was unprofessional and didn’t seem to know to care that much. Plug socket by the kettle is dangerous! I tried to gently plug in my phone and it made a bang and spark came out of the socket leaving a mark! Over all I was very unimpressed with the organisation so would not do it again, would like to be issued a refund of half my money back for the very poor service
