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.

Shower door was stuck & unable to close, made even turning light switch on a challenge. Staff were unable to change room & offered no alternative. Said they would check/attend to bathroom but I heard nothing. Location was ok, breakfast was good. Wouldn’t stay there again with that level of service.

It's not a luxury stay but provided the necessary items. All the appliances are new. Although, they are mini-sized. The cleanness in the room is satisfied. Only one thing has to be mentioned. The kitchen utensils are not enough to be used. For example, 2 big plates, 2 small plates, 2 small bowels, 2 spoons, 2 forks....

I recommend staying here as it is nearby the largest open-air fresh-soy market in the southern hemisphere. The stalls at the market open 7 days but get in before dawn to get the finest and most choicest soy beans before they are snapped up by soy-speculators/investors. The rooms are really nice and obviously influenced by soy-beans and it's local history and relevance to Kingston. Abode kingston is a soy-lid choice for any traveler as part of their own soy journey - grand soy tour. Would highly recommend ! I would rate them 10 Soy beans out of 10 if such a rating existing (which sadly it does not) Highly recommend!

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.
