My favorite place to stay in Kingston. The building is beautiful and always well maintained. Staff always friendly, welcoming and professional. My only concern is the quality of the breakfast. Definitely some room for improvement there.

The facilities are spic-n-span clean. Our room was comfortable and adequate in size (but the bathroom seemed to be dated............but who cares) Our homemade breakfast , included in the room rate, was a Nobel Prize Winner. We will return for sure.
