have used wilfred laurier university (hotel) accomodation during summer months on 2 seperate holidays now. during term time it's student residence and has various types of accomodation available. it's great for people with kids, we've used their apartments which contain 4 rooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen/dining area and livingroom.
you have to provide own dishes, cutlery, sheets etc but good for families travelling on a budget.
the accomodation is designed for students-hence not elaborate but with kids do you really want to be looking over your shoulder to make sure their not making a mess?
only 1 hour from toronto
