Nice Hotel
This used to be a Holiday Inn for decades. It's been refurbished and nice. Clean, large place, pool, decent free breakfast, lots of parking. Only odd thing for a hotel was there was no daily room service. If you wanted service you had to ask. No big deal for us, but it may be to you. And the price was less than most of the comparable hotels in Kingston.

A definite NO!
The hotel is run down. Our first room had hair in the bed and the second room had no shower curtain (this was addressed quickly) and water/mold damage on the ceiling. People were friendly and helpful, but you can't overlook the quality of the room. especially at the price. Glad we only had to stay one night. I would never recommend, and I will never return.

Excellent staff
Customer service oriented staff. Bethroom inour room was tiny. Toilet was low. Would be difficult for anyone with mobility or obesity issues.
TV had a lot of channels but this type of system does not turn onTV easily. Even with new batteries.
Outside grounds were not being kept up. Lots of weeds in landscape beds.

Stayed for 2 nights while visiting the Dutchess County Fair. Very nice place that needs upgrades. Cute pool and game area. Pool is like a sauna, but AC makes it cold when you exit pool. Not all games are operable (play at your own risk. Delicious food, nice ambiance.

The front desk was helpful in getting us situated after arriving late in the evening. However, the room keys didnt work two separate times - requiring us to walk to and from the front desk to our room twice. The building itself is older - but with that it means that while the room itself was tidy, it was run down and smelled heavily of mildew. We felt that for the price charged it was not good value, unfortunately. Free breakfast in the morning was hot and decent -- but overall, we hope the price offered is more affordable for this type of motel.

All in all, we enjoyed a good stay. The hotel was full of guests and high energy. The staff who assisted us were helpful and courteous.
But it did seem like the hotel had a very thin staff. It would also be nice to have the option of herbal teas and fresher fruits.

Parking was very easy. Ac was very good. Wi-Fi was so so. Breakfast was good with scrambled eggs and sausage. The rooms are old and seem worn. Our smoke alarm went off for no reason. The staff quickly removed it.
