VERY VERY CLEAN & WELL MAINTAINED!!! Beautiful place, comfortable, and "home away from home" kind of atmosphere. Very easy to check-in. Extremely clean facilities, and nice and quiet area. Extremely comfortable beds, hypoallergenic and clean sheets, and fresh towels and toiletries provided. Nice Victorian style, and met Laura, the owner briefly for a chat. She was very nice, and runs an excellent bed & breakfast. Will definitely stay here again in future. Breakfast and coffee provided was excellent! Really enjoyed my stay, and slept better than I normally do at hotels. House was warm and comfortable, despite the cold conditions outside. Definitely recommend staying here.

lovely country home - needs some tweaks/fixes
house is a lovely old home with lots of charm, Laura was very nice and welcoming, check in easy, coming and going easy. However I couldn't use the shower - it was a really small stall shower and could easily and quickly be renovated into a better one. No place to put things in the room so I put all my stuff on one bed and slept in the other. The bed I picked the first night had a sink hole in it which hurt my back - so I switched to the other bed the next night and that was really good. I would make it a single room - remove the bad bed by the window that also blocks the closet and put in a little table and chair so people have somewhere to sit. Also since the bathroom is shared (not an issue - that was fine) but put a small mirror in the bedrooms would be nice and helpful. The breakfast was good. Love the character in the home. located close to Kingston so it was easy for me to get to where I needed to go. Would recommend to people who don't have shower claustrophobia or weight issues.

The website suggested each room had a private shower. This was not the case. We never saw our host,and I was a little dissapointed that the breakfast was a self serve continental. Cereal yogurt and toast. It is was very clean, the beds were comfy, and the location was charming and convenient.

Thank you for your review. We are glad you found our beds comfy. We are sorry you were disappointed with our bathroom amenities and our breakfast. We are puzzled as to what website you were looking at. Our website at kingstonbedandbreakfast.com clearly states, under amenities, "self-serve continental breakfast" and "shared bathroom".

I absolutely LOVED everything about Laura's B & B, the warm vibe of the beautiful home, the decor, the cleanliness, how organized it is. And the foam bed, my gosh, so comfortable. Laura is so welcoming and kind. The breakfast even includes homemade jams and it was lovely. I have been to other B & B but this is by far, the BEST one so far. Highly recommended for a nice little getaway.

Pro:. Even though I arrived late my room was reserved. I liked that the house was clean and had bed sheets properly done. The area is quite so no disturbance from cars or people. Laura was so kind and sweet and so was Keri when she booked my room. Cons:. No staff on after hours. No TV. Breakfast was limited to toast and cereal but it was still enough. Overall I enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it as a layover type of sleep.

Bathroom was shared with 2 other potentially double occupancies. Only a hook lock on bedroom and bath. Shower was tiny and the door frame was moldy, There was no staff - just a trail of notes. No radio, TV or other usual distractions. AC was a noisy window unit in the stairwell and a few fans. I'd be better prepared if I was camping.

It is unfortunate that you were disappointed with the amenities at our property and that you were were unable to interact with our host, Laura, due to a late night arrival and quick early morning departure. As our small Bed & Breakfast is an 1800's built Victorian farmhouse we are unable to match the standards of a hotel or other new build. Our bathroom shower has been newly renovated and each room does have it's own ceiling fan as we are unable to have central AC. Our website does state that we only host a maximum of three guests total on any given night and that we do not have television.

This 1895-built home met my expectations for a B&B. It was simple, unique and clean. Though I had to share a bathroom with another couple (I was a single), there was no conflict as they left very early. The owner was kind enough to let me lock up my bike in a shed while I went downtown Kingston for dinner. Communication was good and I let her know about when I would be arriving.

Won't bother with this place again.
We had a late check in so we didn't expect to see anyone that night but we got up, showered, made ourselves breakfast, loaded the truck back up and left without seeing any other humans. The only other living creature we saw were the two bunnies eating their breakfast on the front lawn. The bathroom was nice and large (shared with all the rooms) but the shower was the tiniest I have ever had the displeasure of attempting to use. I don't consider myself an overly large person but I had issues trying to even shave my legs. We were supplied with one towel each and a washcloth. Well, I have long hair so I need at least a second towel to get the whole drying off thing done. Air conditioning is in the upstairs hallway only, not in the rooms. So if the ceiling fans aren't enough to cool you off, you have to leave your bedroom door open.

not a comfortable stay
This being the 1st time trying a bed and breakfast I made the mistake after a long day of work to use the kitchen table to eat my dinner. Next morning I was questioned about my actions and advised of the rules outlined. The bed I slept on for 2 days was situated on a slope was not comfortable. Laura felt it necessary to tell another guest about the situation and that i was upset which i did not say. I actually apologized and felt terrible that I invaded her space. I was refunded for 1 night of my stay.. Lastly the Snow was not removed 1st thing in the morning so i could get to my car with ease but was removed after her conversation with the other guest. Disappointing

Bed and Breakfast away from downtown Kingston
Stayed at the B and B on a Friday night. It was my first time ever in a B&B. Received the key code via an email and let myself in at about 9 pm. Had a clean room with 2 single beds. In the morning, I went to the kitchen and made myself breakfast, had a shower and left. It was perfect for what I needed. I never saw anyone else, although there was another gentleman there.

Quirky B&B outside Kingston
Heritage-style home kept very tidy and clean, located quite out of the way, approx. 20 minute drive into Kingston. Owner was present very briefly upon arrival then we did not see her again and were required to follow notes around the home to find basic breakfast by ourselves etc. Shared bathroom so you need to be OK with that - not deluxe but clean and comfortable. Good value for cost of stay.

Very cozy and clean B&B. I was pleasantly surprised. It was great for an overnight stay. A couple of recommendations: It was dark when I arrived, it would be great if there was a light by the parking area so that it wouldn't be pitch taking belongings out of the car. Also the shower needs an update in terms of the door & ceiling. Other than that everything was wonderful. Laura was so pleasant as a host just like her B&B. A gem close to all amenities in Kingston.

Quiet "self-serve" type of B&B
The B & B is set up to be as automated as possible. It seemed obvious to me that the owner wants minimal interaction with her guests. There are notes everywhere posted in the house telling you what you can and can't do, where you can go and can't go. The hotel is located in a remote and quiet area which was very pleasant. The rooms and the house itself is spotlessly clean. The shower was beyond miniscule in size, it was a real challenge to get things done! Breakfast was self-serve and the options were cereal, toast or an apple. Overall I expected more from a B&B in terms of interaction with the owner/staff, and also with breakfast options. I would stay there again for the quiet, peaceful location.
