Accomodations in Toronto
Toronto Tips Seeing Toronto on a Budget International Accomodations
I love to travel and it is always a great thing to have a list of places to stay in the cities I arrive in.  I have put together this list of affordable and decent places to stay in Toronto  with the help of Housing Services at the University of Toronto and my own experiences with guests that have visited and my one bedroom was just too small to receive them   I thought I would share this with all of you and recommend that you bookmark this page as I am sure it will come in handy.  I keep adding to this list and ask that if you have a good tip on a place to stay in this increasingly expensive city, please tell me about it so that I can add it to the list. Also, if you have a tip on a great place to stay in another city anywhere else in the world please send it to me to.  Como ya saben, me encanta viajar y siempre es bueno tener una lista de lugares BBB (bueno, barato y bonito) donde quedarse si hace falta.  Esta lista me la estan pidiendo constantemente y decidi ponerla en mi sitio web para que sea mas facil accederla.  Si tienen algun sitio para agregar a la lista en Toronto, las afueras o en otra parte del mundo por favor mandemela.
