The policy they have on a lost key card is far excessive than other hotels. It leaves an unpleasantry with me where I will never go there or recommend them again.

Decent
It was a decent experience. Didn’t like that the key controlled the light so if 1 person has to leave the room then that was an inconvenience. The parking was tight and drive way to the parking lot can only accommodate midsize or smaller vehicles. The breakfast was good, needs more no pork options. The sheets were not comfortable felt too rough, the pillows were tough like rock, the bed squeaked every move made. Rooms were modern, could use little bit more pictures or a little greenery. I loved the kitchenette feature that way we did not have to use the bathroom sink for everything. I would come back if I don’t find any better options next time staying in Kingston.

I enjoyed my 4 day stay at the hotel. The customer service was excellent and the location is convenient. The restaurant was being renovated during my stay but the hotel suggested a restaurant just down the street that was amazing. Parking is tight due to spacing but not a deal breaker. I’ll definitely go back on another stay.

Will not return
The rooms were dated, the restaurant was closed as well as the pool. I was notified that the pool would be open as of Aug 5 however it was still closed during my dates. This hotel has no amenities, so your only option is to sit in your room. A standard room with balcony was an extra $37 USD per night which I declined. The location is sketchy and is surrounded by prostitutes. The cleaners and restaurant staff were friendly and helpful. The "free" breakfast only had bacon or pork as a meat option and unfortunately I don't eat pork. I will never stay at this hotel again - management needs to be replaced!

Low budget hotel with a high price
This hotel needs to lower the price as well as the stars. The restaurant and the pool are “under construction”. The room had no body wash and we were given face wash to compensate. They need to renovate and update the entire hotel. Then they wanted to charge extra for Jamaican breakfast. That should be complimentary since the restaurant is under construction. I will not be staying here again.
