This hotel is a dump. No hand held shower. No water pressure. The bed is like mush. The coffee and orange juice are like water. Ants in the room. Overall seems unkept, dated, poorly maintained. Should be managed by a hotel chain, and not the university.

All the staff were amazing. Cheerful, informative, client oriented, very helpful, kind, respectful, and always at your service. The rooms are lovely and spacious. The beds very comfortable. However, the towels were very thin and small, I am 4' 10" and weigh 105lbs The breakfast though plentiful was cold, both the buffet, and the weekday one. I mean the eggs, the potatoes, the toast, the tea....

The hotel offers decent value for the rooms (spacious and clean) but the television is very old and the bathroom while clean, the floor tile could use updating as it is wearing through you can see the old colour underneath. You get a hot breakfast included too.

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.
