8/10 Good
"Our room was very clean and we had a wonderful view of Kingston harbour. We were very disappointed with the boxed breakfast. For the amount of money spent per night I think a better breakfast would be appropriate. If you don’t eat muffins and yogurt the remaining breakfast items of two hard boiled eggs and a piece of cheese was disappointing."
