Why Toronto’s Furnished Rentals Are a Better Option Than Airbnbs

torontoToronto is Canada’s most popular tourism destination. The best Toronto luxury suites are often in demand with over 27.5 million visitors coming to the city every year. With a vibrant waterfront, historic districts, cuisines sampled from all over the world, and the one of the most distinguished art museums in North America, Toronto is a city worth visiting. 

But experiencing Toronto for yourself starts with a safe place to stay. Here are a few reasons why the city’s visitors are gravitating away from Airbnb. 

1. Millions of Listings and No Standards 

Airbnb is a multibillion-dollar company. Its sole objective is to recruit as many hosts as possible to expand the number of listings worldwide—of which there are already millions. 

The truth is, Airbnb is only a platform and every listing is someone’s home.

Before the pandemic, staying at an Airbnb enabled you to save money while living like a local. 

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, sharing a stranger’s home is less than ideal—especially when the company has no way of enforcing sanitization standards across its never-ending list of properties for rent. 

2. Disappointment in Refund Policies 

Unlike hotels, Airbnb requires its guests to pay the majority of their lodging before their trip. When the WHO first declared a pandemic, and travel bans were quickly put into place, guests rushed to cancel their bookings. Airbnb responded in a way that left customers fuming.

The company required documentation proving that guests were, in fact, subject to travel restrictions. They asked for letters from employers, screenshots of government websites—even proof of cancelled transportation. Some customers were offered travel credits instead of cash.

3. Too Many Surprises 

Before the pandemic, the ease and convenience of booking an Airbnb justified its lack of standards. Today, blind trust is no longer enough. Common complaints such as missing amenities and a lack of cleanliness are now health hazards. 

Worst-case scenarios such as fake listings, or a host that cancels less than 24 hours before your stay, can now leave you stranded in an unfamiliar city during an unprecedented public health emergency. 

What Other Options Do You Have? 

Over the past few months, the world has paid witness to the devastating effects of COVID-19. The outbreak has left no aspect of everyday life untouched. When it comes to travelling in a post-COVID world, health and safety should be your first priority. 

Airbnb has always been risky. With the health of your loved ones on the line, justifying that risk is no longer worth it. The decline of Airbnb’s popularity has made that clear. So, where are people staying?

Whether you’re a frontline healthcare worker looking to self-isolate closer to Toronto’s network of major hospitals, or you’re a business executive on the hunt for corporate housing in Toronto, your best bet is a furnished suite. Here’s why. 

Toronto Luxury Suites do more than guarantee cleanliness. With a fully-stocked kitchen, on-call managers, high-speed internet, and an affordable price tag—on top of sweeping views of downtown Toronto—consider a furnished suite for your next trip to the greatest city in the world.

    I highly agree that Toronto’s furnished rentals are a better option than Airnabs. I’ve also heard very bad experiences with Airnabs at essayking. Moreover, Toronto is Canada’s most popular tourist destination so I would highly suggest going there.

    Toronto has various types of housing available for rentals. Whether you are searching for short term rentals or long term rentals, you must consider your monthly budget. The is basically a cryptocurrency exchange software medium like the currencies like USD but is mainly designed for exchanging digital information. And are there some of the reasons why cryptocurrency has become so popular in the recent past?

    Reasonable arguments, thank you for posting. Indeed, AirBnb is not always the best choice

    Most of the common hazards that can lead to data loss or corruption are always present. Even if your facility is well protected against theft, voltage surges and water or fire damage, there are still many other threats, which are largely outside of your control: device failure, viruses, malicious attacks, volume and directory glitches, transfer corruption, and human error.

    @ software development for small business:
    I’ve recently started my own IT group. Then there’s the matter of personnel selection. For this, I went straight to the developer calculator. Where, because to a large database of developers, I was able to quickly locate suitable personnel that matched my requirements. Everything happens quickly; the only remaining task is to choose the proper developers. This project is suitable for beginners. Best wishes!

    Yeah, the photos on airbnb can be deceptive, it might looks clear and large in pictures but when you step in the room, it is actually a tinny and dark room.

    The touchscreen has a user-friendly interface and is complemented by simple volume and climate control buttons on the sides and bottom. Overall, the FR-S’ cabin pleases with its clean, minimalist styling. Although most are plastic-coated, most are finely textured and appear high-quality.
