We has to stay here because our land lord had to put us here as our house we are renting isn't ready.

I'm a student at Durham College. I have been living in res for about a year now, and the only improvement I've seen is the new store downstairs(ridiculously over-priced!) and wifi (that keeps disconnecting every time!!! i cant do my homework and always have to go at the library!-very inconvenient!).

Our corporate travel agent booked this lodging for us, mostly for the convenient location to Mosport race track. It is a bit closer than all the hotels along 401.

A lot of the Colleges in Ontario offer their rooms as accomodation in school breaks. We were lucky here as the Durham residence is relatively new. Also, the $94 guideline price here is much cheaper if you book a weekly rate. You really can't go wrong. We used this as a base to do a lot of travelling, so we... More
