Need a place to stay while your family’s house is being remodeled? Or perhaps you need a residence while in Toronto for several months due to business. Maybe you are moving to Toronto and need a place to stay while you are relocating to Toronto? There is any number of reasons why you would need a home away from home and if you find yourself in this situation it is typically better to go with furnished apartments rather than extended stay hotels, especially if you plan on staying there for more than a few weeks.
Room to Breath
Perhaps the biggest advantage that makes furnished apartments a better alternative to hotels is that there are more rooms and therefore more privacy if it is more than just you who will be staying there. Should you be bringing the family, everyone is going to need their own space. When they do it leads to a much more harmonious living arrangement, making the whole living situation all the more pleasant.
Keep Your Lifestyle
In addition to privacy, you gain the advantage of not having a dramatic change in your home lifestyle. Always cook a huge breakfast for the family on Saturday morning? While that would be hard to do in a hotel room with no kitchen, with a furnished apartment it’s easy. Since a furnished apartment is more like a typical home, you can maintain your regular routine.
The Price
On top of the fact that the overall price for staying in a hotel is almost always more expensive for the same period of stay over furnished apartments, there is also the hidden costs. Eating out all the time and doing your laundry at on off-site Laundromat is just a couple of examples of these hidden costs. Staying in a furnished apartment helps to curb such costs.

New Arrivals
Toronto Public Health announced enhanced measures to protect the public on March 13, 2020, and are currently in effect until April 5, 2020. Anyone who has travelled from anywhere outside Canada, including the United States, is asked to self-isolate and avoid contact with others for 14 days.
For All Stays
Weekly Touch Up Service
For your safety and ours, weekly touch up service is cancelled until April 30, 2020. We encourage guests to utilize the ensuite washer and dryer to launder their linens and towels. For guests wishing to receive fresh linens, please send a request through Guest Services, and we will arrange to pick up your used linens (left in a bag at the front door inside the suite) and drop off fresh linen for you to use.
Our Commitment to High Cleaning Standards
We have always utilized commercial hospitality-grade cleaning procedures and supplies. We use specialized chemicals for different surfaces to ensure optimal disinfection. We also use new gloves and separate microfibre cleaning cloths for each suite to prevent cross-contamination. Any linens or cleaning cloths supplies by us have been professionally sanitized at a large commercial laundry facility.
Suite Visits by Guest Services & Maintenance
Until April 30, 2020, we will not conduct any suite tours for prospective guests, nor will any of our Maintenance or Guest Services team members visit occupied suites for any issues other than those relating to essential services.
We recognize that these are challenging times. Like many before it, this too will pass, and together we will get through it. Know that we are working around the clock to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable stay. We remain at your service 24/7 should you have any questions or concerns.
