This little spot is the cutest, most comfortable nest I have landed in for quite some time. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and adorably decorated with vintage items and colors, I love it! You have everything you need, things like coffee, a refrigerator, soaps, shampoo and more. The lobby has so many fun vintage items to enjoy. It really brings me back in time to a playful heart and fond memories. The parking area is large, the breakfast was a nice bonus, and although it was too cold to use it this time of year, the pool area looked lovely and inviting. I travel to this area a few times a year, and I won't be staying anywhere else. No hotel in Kinston can compare, and I have visited a few over the last several years. One I could not wait till daylight to leave; I ended up leaving in the middle of the night. This is the best! I am super excited that they are pet friendly. I will be bringing my dog with me next time. I would not change a thing. They are the jewel of hotels for the area. You will not be disappointed with your stay.

Friendly helpful staff and best of all, I haven't seen a bug. Not even once. They seem to be in the process of renovations. But it did NOT negatively impact my stay. It actually makes me want to stay there seeing that they are taking care of the building.

Nice little downtown area with quaint shops and restaurants.

Nice little downtown area with quaint shops and restaurants. On the weekends, a lot of places are closed. Many of the restaurants close at 6pm on weekdays. Had dinner at La Mariachi which was delicious and more than we could eat. Everything was withing walking distance from the hotel we were staying. Visited the brewery briefly. Went to the CSS Neuse museum. Went to the Wildlife Center but the timing for the planetarium did not work for us. We stayed at Mother Earth Motor Lodge which had shuffleboard, bikes for rent, table tennis and putt-putt. Did not try the pool.

The food was great and the people were friendly.

The food was great and the people were friendly. The town had some great areas but the down town was a ghost town alot of empty buildings. The churches were everywhere so no matter your religion you could go to church. The historical information was easy to find.

I love how Kinston is updating the city, providing music, art and small town Love but just enough to feel like your not missing any big town needs. However a little more shopping choices are needed. Would love to see Kinston providing outside shopping between Kinston and NewBern NC, which would support Jones county, Pink Hill, Kinston, etc. And the beach goers with in-between shopping needs and a feel that eastern nc is GROWING and providing for their small towns and bring more visitors to our side of home country LOVE!

When I arrived I was greeted by my card had declined, I told her I had already paid in advance. She cancelled it and reenter it and then messed up everything. then I end up giving her another card. Then I was charged twice . I was charged on both card. Then the elevator did not work the entire stay.

We have been coming to Kingston for over 20 years.

We have been coming to Kingston for over 20 years. We have enjoyed seeing the changes downtown and all the old favorites and new restaurants and shops. The Mother Earth Taproom is an always stop. We have met many new friends there. Sugar Hill Pizza is great. The Laughing Owl is a good place for dinner. We love Lovick’s Cafe for breakfast. The CSS Neuse Civil War Interpretive Center is a must do.

We came to Kinston to dine at the Chef and the Farmer—-which was amazing! We had an excellent breakfast at Lovick’s Cafe the next morning. It was a pretty small city. We only stayed one day but found shopping & navigating around town really easy. All the food we ate there was superb. We will definitely return.

We were there at this location for five days our bathroom, never I mean, never gotten clean. All they did was give us clean towels. I asked for the bathroom to be clean and never gotten cleaned. They did not respond to any of our complaints that we had about the room the door wouldn’t lock we left and the door was still open when we returned also the drawers wouldn’t shut complained about that the doors stayed open the whole time it was the worst experience I had and staying in a hotel only thing was good was the cafeteria area
