I don't suggestion running VPN (at least any with decent encryption ) on the Wifi /AP. It will end up being a bottle kneck. i.E my Dual core MIP's 680hz Wireless AC running openwrt can barely push 12mbit through an AES tunnel.
Keep the VPN endpoints on the more well endowed endpoints. If you need it as a backup purely for getting into the router, then SSH is fine.
