This was the quietest place I have ever stayed. Slept great. Was in town working for the railroad and the dorm was a great price, clean and quiet. Would stay here again.

It was close to the Isabel bader hall, and the price was excellent. Although it seemed busy (parking lot very full), it was very quiet. I recommend staying here.

It is a university residence and staying there would help subsidize their costs. Close to Kingston and Lake Ontario

Was very good for the price. The property was made to feel like it was a hotel. Its perfect if you are travelling alone or with friends. The separate beds provide extra privacy if needed. The check in staff was bit rude but the check out staff was amazing! No complaints for the property whatsoever

Room was ok but I feel like it should not be promoted as an alternative hotel stay. Confusing entrance, I feel not safe and it’s a bit scary around the area with some of the student roaming around.

Low price. Not far from downtown. Had to pay separately for 24hr parking, which included in/out. Acceptable for overnight stay during travel through Kingston.

Like: Super Friendly check-out young guy. Cheap price.
Dislike: My room *02 is next to a service room which is super noisy at night. I requested to change room but they said none available.
So avoid 102, 202, 302, 402 rooms.

Not bad at all for the price I pay for one night in summer. If you are not a picky person, and just needs a place to stay this place it is!
