Me and my girlfriend started of a two week holiday in Canada in this B&B. First, Maire, the owner, claimed she didnt know we were staying here for the three nights we had booked. We ended up sleeping in her living room because she had overbooked. The pictures are very misleading, we ended up making our own breakfast as she... More

Like others, we stayed at the Lakeview B&B based on others' reviews. This was a great decision - quiet street, really interesting and large house, easy access to the tram system into downtown which takes about 10 minutes, great advice from Marie (the manager) on how to get around, what to see etc. We hired a car and the Lakeview...

It was truly a treat to have the opportunity to spend 5 days at the Lakeview Victorian in October 2004. The inn is located in a residential area of Toronto, with many shops and restaurants right nearby. The streetcar to downtown stops less than 2 blocks away and was easy to navigate, even with never having been to Toronto before.... More

We enjoyed the stay at Lakevie B&B very much. We recommend it to anyone staying in Toronto. We liked the sympathy, the room, breakfast and also the Internet. The location was also nice.

We booked this B & B purely on the comments from Trip advisor. It is different from other places we have stayed but has great character. The rooms are cleaned every day and you can use the kitchen or dining area to meet other guests. Also to be able to use the internet was very useful. Marie the host is... More

Stayed here for a week having read the previous reviews. As with previous US reviewer, our overall reaction was of disappointment for a number of reasons: 1) shared bathroom facilities on main floor - we were also not shown the 2nd bathroom by host on arrival. Most Irish B&Bs have full ensuite facilities as the norm. No curtain on the... More

Based on several sites that feature reviews, like this one, my girlfriend and I decided to stay at this nice little B&B. While we've never stayed at a B&B before, it wasn't really what we were expecting... It wasn't terribly close to the Lake and we both felt like we were staying at a friend's place. B&B to me show...

After reading all the great reviews of this B&B, I was a bit disappointed. I've stayed in numerous B&B's and this was the only one where I wished that I had stayed elsewhere. Most of the rooms are on the same floor as the kitchen and at 7:30 every morning, the sound of dishes & silverware clanging could be heard.... More

Just completed a 7 day stay in this B&B based on various reviews on Tripadvisor & have to agree with all sentiments. Had a great time here & Marie the hostess is so friendly, helpful & knowledgable. She went out of her way to make sure all the guests were happy with their stay, especially if any information on Toronto... More

We had a wonderful stay. The hospitality was great and the personal touch of the hostess made the trip memorable. Fresh baked goodies in the morning and great conversation was an added touch! Highly recommended!
