Officially rental income must be reported, whether it is rental income or professional income is a different story. But based on what you said, only providing a room, suite, and the bare necessities (heat, electricity, washing, etc) then it should be classified as rental income.
For official purposes, generally any income you make must be reported, the tax man doesn't like being excluded from the party. Rental income is reported on line 126 on your T1 for total income. You must fill out and attach schedule T776 for your next tax return.
You can choose not to report it, but if you're getting cash I probably wouldn't deposit exactly $2000 every month into my account lol.
