Overall we had a pleasant stay in Kingston, the apartment is pretty centrally located, and we were easily able to drive anywhere we needed to explore. We did have a few issues though.
Pros:
- General location (Kingston) was great, easy access to walking/hiking trails, and plenty of other towns along the Hudson within an hour drive.
- The pet friendly, fenced in back yard was amazing in the snow! We were able to hang out in the hot tub while our dog ran around the yard, definitely the highlight of the property.
- Definitely subjective, but to me the mattresses were PERFECT.
Cons:
- Insulation from both cold and noise was the main complaint we had. It wasn't hard to hear conversations or music from the downstairs apartment, and there is a train very close by (went through many times per day during our stay) which we could hear and feel in the upstairs unit. There was also a noticable draft from the windows which kept the place a little chilly.
- The fan/overhead light in the bedroom kept acting up, randomly turning on/off. We couldn't for the life of us figure out what the issue was.
- It seemed like an honest mistake, but when we arrived the unit was not cleaned from the previous guests. The hosts were very quick to respond and get their cleaning service to the apartment, but it wasn't the best first impression.
Overall we enjoyed our time in Kingston, and this is definitely a good place to stay if you have pets. Probably not great for light sleepers though
