St. Jacob's is a gem. We prefer visiting weekdays when it's quieter. Weekends can be pretty crowded. If you're interested in going to the market, check days and hours because they are not open every day. Lot's of great places to eat and drink. Something for everyone really.

The location and cleanliness of the unit! When I first arrived there was no clear-cut parking designated. Found out unit didn't have a parking space slotted. Had a hard time opening the lock box. Was not left a note for WiFi and it's password. Room was too hot and the air conditioning wouldn't kick in. Items in the dryer and still on when we arrived. Half sa roll of toilet paper available. Bed didn't really have a sleepablem mattress. Had no comfort at all. I think I rated this property as a two. Would not recommend this unit as a condo unit but a dorm unit. Was very disappointing!

Our trip was in February, I wasn't sure if there would be enough indoor activities. There were plenty of attractions such as St Jacob's village. We loved walking around the village and exploring the many stores. There are at least two good sized antique markets. Thursday and Saturday there is an indoor farmers market. This was the highlight of our trip.The stalls are really interesting and a great selection of food to buy. There is also an outlet mall which we actually did not have time to check out. The local restaurant on Benjamin was very good. Family food,lots of food for a good price. Our trip was lots of fun.

On first entering the property I was very pleasantly surprised with the lovely lobby. Unfortunately, this initial impression was ruined when I noticed the state of the elevators which sadly needed a good coat of paint. It's amazing how the shabbiness of the elevators affected the overall impression of the property. I think they showed neglect and I was wondering in what state the rooms would be. However, mine was just fine.

We only came for one night. It has been several years since I was last there and all the new highways were confusing ( especially in the dark). We ended up using an Uber to get us where we needed to be. There are many places of interest but due to the weather we did not stay to explore. Centre in the Square facility in Kitchener is absolutely beautiful!

Was alright if you bring a pet they will change your room to a pet room for more money and they also charge a pet fee. So more for your room and a fee not happy breakfast was nothing to write home about pool and hot tub was a bonus
