The host was helpful and communicative, just don't expect a luxurious experience. I might not recommend for longer trips given minor issues like a broken dishwasher, lack of cookware, etc, but the home was perfectly suitable for a quick two night stay where we found ourselves exploring most of the time. We had no issues accommodating 12, even with a handful of cars, and the price was almost impossible to beat. The nearby train station also makes Toronto much more accessible than the driving directions may suggest.
