Great cozy place, stayed with a work colleague while attending a conference. Two bedroom, two bathrooms worked perfect for us and we had everything we needed. Beds comfortable, nice little kitchen with a dishwasher. Very walkable area, close to public transportation, coffee shops and restaurants. Place was very clean upon arrival, looked just like the pictures. Hosts were great, easy to follow instructions were provided and our host checked in to see if everything was ok. Would stay again.

We had a great stay for our first time visiting Toronto. Walking distance to explore downtown with lots of restaurants and bars close by. The apartment itself was really nice and clean! Would definitely book again

Here’s a natural review you can post: I stayed here while attending a FIFA World Cup match, and overall it was a great experience. The suite was very clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was one of the biggest highlights—centrally located with easy access to public transportation, restaurants, and attractions, making it convenient to get around Toronto and to the stadium. The space was comfortable and had everything I needed for my stay. My only minor complaint was that the Wi-Fi was a bit slow at times, which could be challenging if you’re planning to work remotely or attend video meetings. Other than that, I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

Great place to stay in downtown Toronto. Great location and easy access to the subway. The place is clean and the hosts were great at communicating with our group!

I had a lovely stay and everything I needed was in the room. The only thing that was a bit tricky was the door, which was a bit heavy and not the easy one to open. Also, the water pressure wasn’t too strong and not easy to turn on for the toilet inside the bedroom. Apart from that, everything was wonderful!

We had a super nice stay at The McCaul apartment. The apartment is nicely decorated, the check in/out instructions were very helpful and clear. The location is perfect. We would recommend this apartment.

We had a great stay here! The place was in a great location and was very clean. The host was very responsive and kind. Would stay again!

We had a great stay at The McCaul. The location was honestly one of the best parts super walkable to so many major attractions, restaurants, coffee shops, and transit stations, which made getting around the city really easy without needing a car, there is parking around the area a bit confusing so just make sure you read. The suite itself was very clean, comfortable, and had all the essentials we needed for our stay. Check-in was smooth, the host was friendly and responsive, and the space felt safe and well maintained. Overall, it was a convenient and stress-free place to stay in downtown Toronto, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

This was one of the best properties I have stayed at with VRBO. Very clean and in a great neighbourhood. I will definitely return. The rental unit is well appointed and recently renovated.

This was a great place to stay. It’s a great location and an easy walk to good food and to the subway and streetcars where you can transit all around the city. Aside from a very small shower in the second bathroom, this place has everything you need. The host made check in and out a breeze. We would definitely stay here again.

very comfortable and easy to check in and out !!

BiancaAirbnbApr 2026

There was a bit of a miscommunication at their end, as airbnb told us our check in would be 10-12pm, however, they only allow check ins at 4pm so cleaners were still at the place and did not finish until 2pm. The cohost gave us the choice of extending our stay or getting a partial refund for the inconvenience. The carpet inside the living room is stained and a bit off putting but other than that it’s a very clean and lovely place to stay.

it was a nice spot

We had a great experience staying at The Mccaul by Casa! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was very convenient, making it easy for us to get around and explore. Everything we needed was provided, and the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The owner was also very responsive to our questions and took action right away when we mentioned that the AC wasn’t working, which we really appreciated. The space felt comfortable and well-maintained, making our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

We had an excellent stay at the McCaul. The apartment was squeaky clean and thoughtfully appointed, with lots of small touches e.g. finding snacks on arrival, a bottle of wine, and some toiletries. The kitchen is well-equipped and the location is unbeatable: just a block away from the AGO. Shameza contacted us very regularly to provide information and assistance (which in fact wasn't needed), which was super helpful. I highly recommend The McCaul by Casa Hotels.

ShawnVrboApr 2026

Check-in and check-out were straightforward. The property was new and clean. The location was fantastic with lots of sights within walking distance. Communication with the host was easy and responses were quick. Highly recommended.

Fantastic location, with modern amenities. We will stay at The McCaul house again. Appreciated the small touches and very responsive hosts.

It was in a nice location and private with your own door code. Had ac for each room and the kitchen and living room were really nice. The washer and dryer worked great as well. Amazing hosts!

This place was beautiful. It has plenty of restaurants and bars in walking distance. Downtown was about 8-10 min drive. The host were very fast with responses and friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

I loved this place so much! It was extremely clean and the inside looked beautiful. Shameza was an awesome host and so kind. She was very responsive whenever I had questions. The location of this place is extremely ideal as well - it’s in a good part of downtown Toronto. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Toronto and I hope to stay here again in the future :)
