You can spend the night at this urban cottage in Toronto

Toronto is brimming with Airbnb options in downtown condo towers, but the pickings are considerably slimmer if your primary criteria is unique places to stay. Condos are great for business trips, but those looking for a sense of the city's character must look elsewhere.

It's oozing with rustic charm, from the fireplace to all the wood and skylights. The dedicated yoga area is a bonus.

The shared bathroom won't appeal to those who crave privacy. Anyone looking for an upscale short term rental will want to move on.
