Hidden gem!

Reviewed By megazettai

What a hidden gem! This place is clean, quiet, decent (i have experienced worse). Nothing off or iffy at all (i.e.which may be associated with 'motel'). Came here with in laws (seniors). Was worried they dont like the place (they dont even want to stay at 'diamond' airbnb). But they are happy with a very good quality of this accomodation. Convenient location ..it's just off the highway.. circle K, a&w, gas station are also next door (5min walk). Across the street is paramedic office. Washroom has no fan though. May feel damp overnight. Regardless, I still highly recommend this place. Cleanliness is utmost importance.

Very dated rundown and dirty

Reviewed By Escape682093

When we pulled up To this motel we looked at the sign twice. This place is very run down and dirty and very dated. We thought maybe the room would be better but not. The room was very dirty and very dated. The windowshaker they have for ac is very very loud and doesn’t work well. We tried to book somewhere else but couldn’t get our money back here or get anything in the area .

Train whistles and noisy A/C

Reviewed By mooseman22

For how much I paid for the room, I expected more. The room itself was fine except the garage sale chairs were worn, the A/C was noisy enough to rattle the whole room and we got the pleasure of getting a train whistle every hour or so, even at night. The parking lot was under construction and should have been disclosed prior to booking, which made parking difficult. A Tim Hortons is close by but that's about it. It's not close to anything as far as tourist areas are concerned, completely at the west end of town.

Stay away

Reviewed By Stephensonofstephen

I got going late and needed to stay in Kingston for a night -- I saw a sign for one hotel and figured that where there's one there are others. So I went down John A. Maccdonald Blvd, turned on to Princess and saw the Knight's Inn. The check-in should have warned me off, but I was really tired.... The room was filthy and in very bad shape -- no recent renovations here. I don't think the linens had been properly washed, the carpet cleaned in years, anything wiped down with any type of cleaner, and there was a lot of mildew in the bathroom. Even worse was the scary people hanging around (and probably staying there): druggies and prostitutes and some just really nasty looking types. I did not even stay the night I felt so unsafe. They wouldn't refund me, but that was better than having my car broken into or being assaulted while going to or from it.

This place should not be in business- disgusting

Reviewed By N3827QIkellyh

We booked this to drop off kids at University with the family. This property is terrible and falsely advertised and pricey. The towels were threadbare, torn and stained. When we asked for different towels we were told they are all stained but they are clean! The toilet seat did not fit the toilet and the toilet itself leaked all over the bathroom. The air conditioning unit had moldy fluff all over it. The foldout couch had bloodstains on mattress and was unusable. The bed blankets had burn holes. We slept in all our clothes as we didn’t want any of the bedding touching us. They advertised a jacuzzi on the sign- no such thing. They advertised a pool- it obviously is in disrepair and hasn’t had water in it for years. They advertised a park- ancient unsafe equipment. The rooms were smelly. The front office was very run down. I would not recommend this to anyone. Stay away.
