Stephanie is a pleasant host. The space is at the back of the house with a nice view of trees and greenery. We stayed for a week and the kitchen had mostly what we needed to get through making meals. A larger pan would be helpful as well as some coffee pods. The washer and dryer (detergent supplied) are wonderful if you plan on staying long enough to need to wash a few things, especially if with children. You can hear noise from upstairs as there is a family with children so be aware of this if planning on having a quiet time or sleeping in. Otherwise, we were happy with the accommodations and it suited our needs for our stay in Kitchener.

It’s a comfortable, clean space love the ambiance. However getting to the entrance and operating the lock is problematic in the evening for late checking in. The pavers-walkway are not well laid which could result in a fall and the outside walkway to the entrance is not not well lit. Stephanie is a good hostess. I enjoyed being there. I will stay there in my future visit to the area.

Me and my partner stayed here for just under 3 weeks. I found the place lovely and comfortable for what we needed. The place was clean and everything easy to use. Only issue I would say is to have a bigger frying pan for cooking or a 2nd one. The host Stephanie I felt was brilliant she checked in with us to see if there was anything she could do to help. The location is quiet with fantastic running/walking trails but is also not far from the shops and restaurants. I would recommended this place for a quiet stay where you can use it as a hub to travel around.

A Simple Escape was exactly that- a no fuss haven that was economical and comfortable. Stephanie was super responsive to our queries. The unit was so clean and comfy. The kitchen was fine for us getting a quick breakfast, and the bathroom had everything we needed. I highly recommend Stephanie as a host and A Simple Escape for your next stay in Kitchener!
