Penny

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was clean and new, quiet and comfortable with close to dining spots. The only glitch was with the system in the calendar setting and did a forward date instead of the date I selected. Resulting from $139.84 price to $196.20. Which was disappointmeting as there wasn't much difference in the days from the glitch in the system. Nothing could be done.

Everything we needed

We had a comfortable, spacious room at the Kingston Abode with new, well-equipped furnishings. Desk staff were friendly and helpful (desk staffed 8am-8pm). Breakfast vouchers enabled us to have a tasty breakfast across the street. Everything else we needed (transport, shops, gym) was within a block of the hotel.
