    My card swipe box's battery went flat, at 6am Sunday the 17th, and I couldn't get in until reception came on at 8am. Technology isn't fun when it's worse then say losing a key lol

    It was very basic, and the bathroom, in particular, was not very clean. Daily housekeeping is only at request. The basement parking was extremely hot.

    Nice location near the water, places to eat out and a great supermarket.

    The rooms are basic and the bathrooms very small. But there is everything you need for a short stay in Canberra. Pillows are quite large and firm, and bedding isn't excellent quality. They do not service rooms on the weekend.

    Location is excellent. The bikes for hire are a nice touch.

    We felt that the hotel must have an emergency plan in place including staffing to manage such unexpected situations.

    Very convenient location with lots of restaurants nearby. Walking distance from Superbarn, which is an additional plus point. There was power outage on the day we were checking out and we were feeling so sorry for the reception staff who had to manage the reception as well as deal with irate customers and making sure the car park boom gates could open to get the cars out and a multitude of other things. We were very impressed with the way the staff member at the reception managed. She was overwhelmed with the whole situation but calmly got us checked out. Hats off to her.

    The showers are poorly designed so that water leaks out the door every time you shower. It’s very annoying.

    I always stay at Abode Kingston when I travel to Canberra for work. It’s in a fantastic location near all the shops and restaurants in Kingston. The rooms are very spacious with kitchen facilities and a very comfortable bed.
