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.

It was opposite restaurants. It was quiet and comfortable.
Parking was expensive so we avoided it. I would have liked drawers to put clothes away.
Overall a pleasant stay.

Abode have a real problem with the plumbing, the shower does not drain properly and floods over the bathroom , I had to use towels to soak up the water, a real slip hazard. Sink in bathroom also does not drain properly. I was talking to friends who stayed there several years ago and they had the same problem, they were just give a heap of towels like I did.
