“What a great place to stay. Comfortable and close enough to everything. Everything as described and pictured. And fully stocked! If you think you forgot something from your toiletries, check before you make a trip to the store. Patricia and Renato thought of everything! Thoughtful and helpful hosts, comfortable and well worth the price.”
“This place was perfect for our visit :)
Clean & cozy & they were stocked up with everything you could possibly need if you forgot anything. 10/10 would stay again :)”
“A Perfect Stay
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect Airbnb for such a special trip. ❤️ The space was absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we could have wanted.
The hosts went above and beyond by leaving us a thoughtful anniversary gift of beautiful wine glasses, which made our stay feel even more special. 🥂
This was a surprise trip for my husband for Father’s Day and our 20th anniversary, with the added excitement of seeing the Blue Jays in Toronto. It was the perfect place to celebrate such a milestone and made an already special trip even more memorable.
Thank you for creating such a beautiful space and for the thoughtful personal touches. We absolutely loved our stay and would happily stay here again! ❤️”
“Wonderful hosts - had beverages in the fridge and goodies on the counter. Wonderful communicators.”
“The apartment really is a hidden gem with so much care and attention to the little things. Great shower, and kitchen facilities. Very comfy bed and the whole place was spotless. So easy to get into downtown Toronto. Faultless communications - we really enjoyed our stay x”
“Lovely place……Very much spacious and indeed a home away from home”
“This was honestly one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve ever had. The place was absolutely spotless and felt brand new. The beds were incredibly comfortable, everything was modern, and you could tell the host takes a lot of pride in keeping the place in perfect condition.
What really impressed me was the attention to detail. The host literally thought of everything. There were snacks, coffee, tea with multiple varieties, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, body wash, fresh towels, a washer and dryer with laundry detergent, a hair dryer, and so many other essentials. There were even unopened supplies available in case guests needed them. It felt like staying in a luxury hotel, but with all the comforts of home.
Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. They were friendly, responsive, and made check-in and the entire stay completely stress-free.
The location was fantastic, the neighborhood was quiet, safe, and welcoming, and having free parking in Toronto was incredible”
“Nous avons passé un très bon séjour chez Renato. Le logement était propre, confortable et conforme à la description. Renato a été un hôte accueillant, réactif et disponible tout au long du séjour. L’arrivée et le départ se sont déroulés sans difficulté. Je recommande ce logement à tous ceux qui recherchent un séjour agréable.”
“Nossa estadia foi incrível, nunca tivemos anfitriões tão gentis, nos atenderam em todas as nossas necessidades. A casa tem tudo que você precisa e muito mais, os anfitriões pensam em tudo, muito mais que as nossas necessidades básicas, e a limpeza estava impecável. Nota 10/10.”
“Very nice people, loved how they responded fast and were always understanding of certain things”

“We travel for work and stay at many places using Airbnb and this was one of my very favourites. From the great communication to the very clean well appointed space and thoughtful touches, this felt like home away from home. Great hidden gem!”

“Patricia & Renato olivat uskomattoman ystävällisiä isäntiä. Jos menet Torontoon on tämä todella hyvä paikka majoittautua. Todellinen viiden tähden helmi.”
“We were in town for a couple days and it was an amazing place to stay. They had more than listed if anything was forgotten it would've been available to us. An amazing experience!”

“The hidden gem was truly a hidden gem, please with my choice definitely.”
“We stayed at Renato’s place for a few nights. We felt safe and comfortable.
There are many places go for shopping and with restaurants with-in minutes.
The unit was very clean and the bed comfortable. And the shower is impressive.
Renato and Patricia had the place very well stocked. With cool drinks and snacks waiting for us. But it was the bathroom accessories that impressed us. Seriously, don’t even unpack your toiletries bag!
Why just four stars? Well the neighborhood is very residential with no sidewalks to take a walk on no parks that we saw close by. And the bedroom is tight and it’s difficult for two people to get in without one having to climbing over the bed.”
“The hosts were very responsive and my friends and I enjoyed our stay.”
“Beautiful little place with everything you'll need on a trip. Very worth the price and way better than any hotel you could book”
“This place was so beautiful. Host was amazing, it was so many complementary snacks and drinks. The bathroom had everything you could think of. Definitely would recommend again and again.”
“Had a great week-long stay in this cozy basement suite. It was clean, homey, and super convenient—close to Walmart, Dollarama, and more. Me and my sister felt very safe, and the host was really nice. Would definitely recommend!”
“I had a fantastic stay at Renato’s Airbnb! The space was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up with everything I needed. The check-in process was smooth, communication was quick and helpful, and the location was perfect for my trip. You can tell they truly care about their guests’ experience. Highly recommend, and I’d definitely stay here again!”
“The best place we have visited in Canada. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. The apartment has absolutely everything you need.”
“Ett trevligt boende med en väldigt bra värd som var mycket hjälpsam. Rekommenderar varmt att bo där.”
“Ein wirklich sehr schönes Appartement, das wir zu 100% weiterempfehlen können. Die Ausstattung und die Lage sind hervorragend, alles ist sehr sauber. Der Bus zur Subway nach Toronto Downtown ist 2 min entfernt. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich, die Kommunikation ist sehr angenehm und schnell. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.”
“Logement très agréable et confortable”
“Highly enjoyed and recommend staying here. This spot was in very close proximity to transit of which my partner and I used to commute back and forth from downtown Toronto. Renato’s place had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and more. Overall a beautiful basement apartment. The only cons would include the ceilings being a little low in some spots!”
“Unser Flugzeug hatte Verspätung und mit dem Mietwagen dauerte es auch länger als gedacht.
Wir kamen sehr spät in der Wohnung an und freuten uns über die Aufmerksamkeiten.
Dank der netten Gesten (Essen und Snacks) sind wir an dem ersten Abend nicht verhungert und verdurstet.
Insgesamt ist es eine tolle Wohnung, die uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert ist.
Grüße aus Deutschland
Regine & Dirk”

Patricia really took her time with the small decor details and comfortability of this space. I will definitely be returning!”
“This Airbnb exceeded all expectations! The space was incredibly clean and beautifully maintained. The large TV with Netflix ready to go made for cozy nights in, and the futuristic fireplace was a stunning touch changing colors and warming the room perfectly. We were especially impressed by the generous snack selection prepared for us upon arrival—such a thoughtful detail!
The bed was made with care and attention to detail, offering ultimate comfort. The kitchen island was spotless and modern, perfect for meal prep or just relaxing. The bathroom was fully stocked with essentials like toothpaste, soap, mouthwash, and fresh towels—amazing for guests who might forget something.
A special touch that made us feel truly welcomed: chocolates placed on the bed such a sweet gesture! The fridge was surprisingly well-stocked with goodies, making it easy to feel right at home.
Overall, this home is one of the best we’ve ever stayed in—quiet, stylish, extremely comfortable, and so well-organized.”
“My partner and I stayed at Renato and Patrica's place for a few days.

“We had an amazing experience! The space was so clean, comfortable, welcoming and everything we needed was provided. We were in town to see Taylor Swift and Patricia even went the extra mile to get little swiftie accessories for us. I would recommend this place 100 times, and I hope to be able to stay again!”
“Very nice stay, clean space and responsive host.”
“Loved every bit of it. I wasn’t sure what to expect and wasn’t sure if the other reviews were just being polite but I was blown away.
The space is beautiful, their response time was fast and they paid attention to details, I mean the little things you’d naturally forget when going on a trip, they thought of it. I loved my stay and will certainly visit again ❤️”
“Ronato and his wife were some of the best hosts i’ve experienced while visiting Airbnb’s. They literally thought of every little detail to the point where we felt right at home and didn’t need to bring any toiletries or extra things. The place is EXACTLY like the photos and super comfy. My girlfriend and I have already said we’ll be back here on our next visit to the city with how much we loved it. Definitely recommend this hidden gem!”
“Fantastic place! Definitely a hidden gem 💎
Not only that but the hosts are absolutely amazing 10/10”
“This place is truly a GEM!
Not only is the home cozy it is also very well designed and modern.
By far the best Airbnb i have ever had the pleasure to stay at.
They have accommodated for every little need you can think of with a plethora of blankets, pillows and towels. In addition to every little toiletry and snacks in the kitchen that was complimentary to our stay.
The rules are very clearly stated and easy to follow.
I had no issues during my stay and highly recommend staying here if you are visiting anywhere in the Toronto area as the highway is close by to make your way to any nearby attractions.”
“Great host, GORGEOUS place! Smelled great, any amenity you could think of. Really thoughtful airbnb. Would stay again!”
“This is the best Airbnb my fiancée and I have booked to date! Renato and Patricia were truly amazing with their communication, description of their place, and kindness. We felt right at home, but it also felt like a 5-star hotel. We will most definitely book with them again in the future. Thank you both!”
“Honestly one of the best air bnbs I’ve ever stayed in, they were so welcoming providing information packs on Toronto. Really fast response time as well as the actual place being impeccable! It was an absolute delight staying here and if I ever do return to Toronto I will definitely stay here one again!
Thank you kindly for all your help.”
“Tout était parfait, Renato et Patricia sont des hôtes disponibles et super accueillants. Plusieurs petites attentions nous attendait à notre arrivée. soyez sans crainte, vous ne manquerez de rien - Patricia et Renato ont pensé à tout !
Nous avions besoin d'une journée avant les dates disponibles et avec une horaire flexible, ils nous ont accomodés à notre plus grand bonheur! Je recommande fortement!”
“Renato’s place was a dream! My wife and I celebrated our 5yr wedding anniversary and were happy to find this spot to comfortably stay after long days of activities. Renato was thoughtful by having a message that greeted us for our celebration weekend. They were very responsive throughout our stay. It was a bit chilly due to the thermostat being out of our control upstairs, but there were plenty of blankets and a fire place to keep us comfortable. Altogether it was a beautiful stay and if we come back to Toronto we would love to stay here again!”
“Wow! This may be one of my favourite places that I’ve stayed at. It was clean, spacious and literally had everything we needed. You can definitely see the love and care in creating this space. Easy check in and check out instructions. Free parking on the street was available. Would highly recommend!”
“Nice place to stay. Close to the airport”
““Wow” was the first thing we said and the last word on our minds while staying at the Hidden Gem. Patricia and Renato offer a beautiful space and even better service! The apartment was beautiful and the small details were everything. Forgot to pack something? I guarantee you’ll find a complimentary version, from toothpaste to shampoo to condiments. The area offers so much within a 10 minute drive and Patricia had some great recommendations! If your main business is in downtown Toronto, traffic will stretch your commute, but there are public transportation options within minutes of this location. 5 ⭐️ and we will return if we ever visit again! 🇨🇦”

“Renato and Patricia's place was wonderful! They were super kind and helpful and answered all the questions I had and were very accommodating. They were amazing hosts! The space was so cozy and clean and it was a great place to stay for the couple of days I was in Toronto. There were no issues at all and my friend and I had a wonderful stay. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Excellent experience provided by phénoménal hosts of exceptionally clean, well appointed that misses nothing! We were greeted with an amazing welcome package personalized for our son who was in town for a surgery. This accommodation missed nothing - all photos taken do not do it justice. Communication was excellent and the hosts made last minute accommodations to meet our personal needs. The best accommodation hands down in the Toronto area ... if I could give Renato & Patricia a 5+ I would!!!
Also - all furnishings and amenities are new and a classy arrangement ... cannot say enough about our week accommodation ~ will definitely return!”
“It was really good until the last morning of our checkout. We got woken up by dogs barking at 6 am and some stomping upstairs so the last night was quite unpleasant.”

“It was beautiful me and my girlfriend loved it, perfect place and extremely attentive host anything you ask she already has an answer for.”
“Me and my dad stayed at Patricia’s Hidden Gem for a week.
I’ll start off by saying, my father is a picky man, and as soon as he walked in he was absolutely amazed at how beautiful, clean and cozy the place was.
Patricia is an amazing host who is very communicative and makes sure her guests are extremely comfortable during their stay. This place is fully equipped from the kitchen to the washroom. Patricia made sure there were toiletries in the washroom, and I mean anything you need when it comes to hygiene is available. The kitchen was fully equipped with a nice stove top to make your own meals. The laundry was filled with extra bedding and towels. The living room space was so modern and cozy with comfy couches, chairs, pillows and soft rugs, not to mentioned how peaceful, and quiet the place was. We felt so much at home.
As far as location, there is lots of amenities nearby, you wont have a problem finding places. I highly recommend this place and we’re definitely returning.”
“Patricia was so helpful, and the place was exactly what we needed! Clean, safe, quiet, good location. If I’m ever in the area again, this is where I’d stay!”
“Hidden gem is truly just that, a home away from home that you’d never expect could come so close to the comforts you’re used to.
This space is large, well lit, gorgeously designed, maintained and looks beautifully renovated, you won’t find a cleaner space.
The whole private space is filled with soft blankets, endless pillows, fluffy spa towels, and high quality hypoallergenic linens.
As a dog friendly space, I was really surprised with how perfectly clean this was.
Patricia went above and beyond several times. (Ex) ordered a nutri bullet so we did not need to bring one. She gives mini versions of everything you could need. There’s a small first aid drawer, bandaids, pepto bismol, hydrogen peroxide. She supplies feminine products as well as men’s. The shower is fully equipped with every type of product you’d need.
The neighbourhood is close to everything 5 mins in any direction you can drive to anything you want. Peaceful safe spot to walk.
THANK YOU PATRICIA!”
“Great stay. Highly recommend staying here”
“Absolutely a joy staying at Hidden Gem! We mistakenly showed up before the check-in time (hit less traffic than we had expected and didn't even think to check the time) and startled Patricia, but she was super kind and accommodating! We would have been happy to drive around until check in, but she welcomed us into her home without hesitation. 😊
She was also very responsive and patient with my questions about the home and area, which was much appreciated! She checked in with us during our stay to make sure everything was going well, which was kind and thoughtful of her. We appreciated her kindness and would recommend her to anyone staying in the Toronto area!”
“An immaculate stay at Patricia’s place!
It was very clean and we were provided with every necessity we could need, from medicine to laundry products. It made our stay very comfortable.
Patricia was very helpful, flexible with our requests, and quick to reply to any questions we had during our stay.
I'd highly recommend :)”
“This is an amazing place, and I will stay here again if I come back to Toronto.”
“Patricias place was a woderful stay. My wife and I have been to many AirBNB'S aroud the world and must say this might have been one of the best. Everything was thought of and the place was very clean as well.
We really felt as we had everything we needed, the location was very quite and like I said we really enjoyed our stay. Two thumbs up!”
“Absolutely stunning! It is decorated so beautifully, with lots of little touches which just make it perfect. It has such a calm and relaxing ambiance to it. With the crisp white towels, super fluffy rugs and cleanliness it’s hard to believe I wasn’t the first guest!
There is everything you would ever need and extra bits in case you forgot something or havn’t had time to pop to the shops before hand, including tooth brush, paste, mouthwash, painkillers, deodorant and even more!
I was gutted to be leaving but if I ever return to Toronto, I will definitely be staying here again!”
“Patricia hosted my parents’ visit to the city - the first thing they said when they arrived was “oh wow, this is definitely the best airbnb we’ve been in.” The place is immaculate - clean, spacious, and cozy. Patricia had welcome treats for my parents and the family pup! The kitchen is complete with appliances, tools, and other necessities you would need. The bathroom is clean, but the shower needs a special mention - the shower is modern and we all enjoyed using it! The bed is comfortable, the linens are clean! The location is close to the highways, quiet residential area. Parking on the driveway was available. To sum up, my parents definitely want to stay at Patricia’s place again for their future visits.”
“My stay at this beautiful basement airbnb was absolutely amazing. Looks exactly like the pictures and it’s surrounding by lots of stores and the mall is even a few minutes away. Patricia was a awesome host she had lots of gifts waiting for me when I arrived and even had treats for my dog. I would definitely recommend booking your trip for Patricia’s airbnb you will not be disappointed. I will also definitely be booking again. I rate my entire stay a 10/10.”
“It was wonderful to stay at Patricia’s place. It has a great vibe, feels brand new and feels like at home.”
“This basement/Apt. AirBnB says its all- Hidden Gem. Modern,spacious rooms,fully equipped kitchen, comfortable bed,super clean. Cable TV/Netflix are included. Quiet neighborhood with an easy 3mins walk to public transits. 40 minutes to downtown, Toronto with combo.street bus/subway from the property. The host, Patricia was very accommodated and had taken significant steps to make my 5 day’s stay very comfortable and safe.”
“We normally stay within the city of Toronto but decided to stay in Mississauga for a change. Patricia's place is a split level house. We rented the entire lower level which was extremely clean and had everything we needed.
Location wise we are not sure how close it is to public transportation but we were able to drive to Toronto within 20 mins. It's extremely quiet and in a residential neighborhood. Parking in the driveway was also convenient.”
“I am extremely honoured to be the first guest of Ms. Patricia.
From the placement of the booking she reached out and was very friendly.
On arrival her place made my jaw drop. It was exactly as seen in the photos. It was as if she took the photos moments before. The unit was spotless and beautifuly decorated. Great pride is taken in making sure that the unit is immaculate, comfortable and home away from home. Ms. Patricia had the unit catered to meet anything I could possibly need.
Host
Patricia is extremely warm and kind. She messaged periodically to make sure the stay was going well. She is very responsive to any queries and messages. Patricia provided information on the area that was extremely helpful. She goes above and beyond for her guests. She already is a Super Host in my eyes.
I highly recommended this place.
If this unit matches what you are looking for I suggest you book it without hesitation because someone else will book it before you!”
