Guest Reviews

• Genevieve (7/5): Comfortable, family-friendly accommodations - This was a comfortable 3-bedroom bungalow that had what we needed for a night’s stay with a young child. The beds were comfortable and the bungalow located in a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood. We didn’t end up cooking but there were some kitchen basics available for us to heat up food. It’s a bit of a drive from downtown Kingston/Queen’s campus but was reasonably priced. The host was easily reachable and able to accommodate an earlier check-in time on short notice. We noticed a few ants inside the unit, which might be expected given the abundant trees and nature in the neighbourhood. The bathroom (particularly the shower) could use an extra light. Otherwise we found everything that we needed.
• Virginia (10/5): -
• Nathan (8/5): Would stay again -
• Chris (10/5): Great stay, very satisfied. If guests don't mind being away from downtown core, it is a good option. - Modern, clean, comfortable home with extra perks like laundry. Beds were excellent. Spacious. Sink in bathroom did not drain properly, Sink stopper was missing. Hot water was not plentiful on night of arrival but by morning it had replentished,
• Kris (7/5): -
• SYLVIE (9/5): - Tres propre et très bien situé près de Kingston La ventilation etait un peu bruyante dans les chambres.
• Mary (10/5): - Clean and warm!
• Andrius (10/5): - The space was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 3 kids.
• Madison (4/5): Pleasant stay but dirty. - Easy to check in and out, comfort of the beds, easy communication with the host. Floors were very dirty. Dust every where. Towels had hairs in them from previous guest. Bars of soap were left in the bathroom. Overall, not very clean anywhere in the home.
• Jonathan (8/5): -
• Evan (10/5): -
• Krishna (8/5): Great value stay with a quiet local location - Location was very handy! Some appliances were not working
• Hukam (8/5): -
• Mark (8/5): Very pleasant night - Easy to find, clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed.
• Paul (10/5): -
• Isabel (7/5): Bonito sitio para una parada corta - Es espacioso Faltaba menaje. Una sartén y no estaba limpia
• Clarisse (9/5): Beau logement dans un quartier très sympa - Hébergement spacieux et équipé Propreté à améliorer ( bonde dans lavabo)mais suffisant pour une nuit
• Mohammad Joynal (8/5): I’d recommend to stay in this property - Yes It’s clean and easy
• Cagla (10/5): Overall a great apartment/house especially the kitchen if you are staying with a larger group and like to cook etc. - The property had everything we needed (kitchen appliances and utensils etc.), was very spacious and modern. The kitchen was exceptional! And the host was very responsive. Thank you. Nothing really. The floors especially in the bathroom weren’t super clean but nothing that would not make us come back.
• Jessica (9/5): - Spacious
• Lounis (10/5): Très agréable logement , propre et très bien agencé, la taille des lits est un vrai plus 😁 - L agencement et la taille des pièces , très agréable
• Dawson (6/5): Good value but a bit of attention and minor upgrades would benefit what is a great space. - Size was nice, parking good, extra basics/spices appreciated. Check in easy with combination lock. Not clean enough. Mirror water spattered upon arrival. Appliances all fingerprinted. No side lamps in bedrooms so reading at bedtime not very good lighting. Only one nightstand in bedrooms. Linens on bed all polyester not nice feeling. No lock on bathroom door and toilet flusher broken. A missing screw on knob I think for bathroom door. Bathroom painted with wrong kind of paint as humidity lines streaked walls.
• Cecile (3/5): - Spacieux et bien placé. Bon contact avec l’hôte pour les indications d’entré. Vraiment très sale. Draps avec des poils et cheveux … visiblement pas lavé … serviettes petites. Logement sale en général , poussière , cheveux au sol , moisissure , grosses taches jaunes sur les rideaux. Lave vaisselle non fonctionnel. Four et dessus du frigo extrêmement sale.
• Farhan (10/5): - My family really liked the place and wanted to stay more, I would highly recommend this property
• Isabelle (8/5): -
• Samantha (8/5): Good value for property. - Quiet property and location. Not a lot of parking space. Dishwasher didn’t fit plates and frame is bent so hard to get into so we washed dishes by hand
• Melanie (8/5): - Location and interior decor was very good. Kitchen island was spacious. Missed not having a kettle, as we prefer tea in the morning. Other than that, everything else was very good.
• Lenalea88 (7/5): - Maison sympa avec de l'espace. Équipement ok Lit confortable un peu mou niveau matelas Aucun soucis a noter, peut etre ne pas avoir une voiture trop large car le passage est étroit
• Alan and Susan (5/5): - Value for the money. Location was just right. Fur ishings nice. Cleanliness especially in bathroom was poor.
• Marie (10/5): - Super maison tres propre et bien situèe Rien
• Jolene (5/5): - The location and price were great. I wish I had known that there was a tenant living in the basement. There were no problems but as 4 women in a new place, a heads up before the day of my arrival would have been appreciated.
• Alain (5/5): - La amplitud la tranquilidad el barrio muy tranquilo La limpieza en general,los utensilios de cocina los armarios ,en general necesita una buena limpieza profunda. la cortina del baño está floja y se empapa y se cae.
• Mudiyanselage (7/5): Pictures look perfect but in reality.... - The place had comfortable beds and the tv and the resting area was good. The location was good too and we came for a night's rest and for this purpose the lilac bungalow was perfect. There were a few things that we didn't like about the place. 1. The bathroom didn't have a lock. We had a couple of families and it was important that the bathroom had a lock. There was none 2. The toilet bowl wasn't as clean as it should be. We had to clean it before others could use it. 3. This is minor but we could have had a proper kettle rather than the coffee machine to boil the water. 4. Again minor, but it would have been nice to have body wash in the bathroom.
• Tommaso (7/5): Comfortable stay in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown Kingston - Conveniently located, approx. 15mins from downtown Kingston in a quiet neighborhood. Apartment has good space, with three bedrooms and a nice-sized kitchen + living room. Look & feel is quite fresh and modern. The place is a bit barebone, especially in the bedrooms (there's not even a reading lamp to read a book while in bed, etc.). Other than that, we found the place pretty nice and comfortable.
• Daniel (9/5): - The property is exactly as described and pictured. We were only staying one night on our way to Toronto. The property is spacious, clean and comfortable.
• Marion (8/5): -
• Christophe (8/5): - Maison confortable et agréable. Bon rapport qualité prix/prix
• Lorenzo (8/5): - Zona residenziale tranquilla, parcheggio nel vialetto di casa, tv grande, zona giorno accogliente, letto comodo Forte odore di curry appena entrato in casa
• Monia (8/5): - Apparentemente spazioso, letti comodi Non funzionava la lavastoviglie e la televisione non era utilizzabile poiché non si connetteva al Wi-Fi della casa. Magari bisognerebbe aggiungere delle lampade sui comodini nelle camere da letto.
• DANIEL (10/5): -
• Nabil (9/5): - Agréable demeure, propre, moderne, coin tranquille. Les lits sont grands et confortables Edeal pour les familles. Nous n'avons trouvé aucun des inconvénients cités dans les commentaires négatifs.
• Roland (9/5): Bon rapport qualité prix - Le calme L’emplacement
• El (9/5): Superb -
• Robyn (7/5): Good -
• Smith (7/5): Good - More space than a hotel for the price. Was nice for our small group. Not enough parking. Was looking for a wash cloth to wash my face this morning and nothing around. Toilet handle needed to be fixed.
• Sravani (7/5): Good -
• Zen (6/5): TLC please! - The Lilac Bungalow is located on a quiet street close to retail. It is spacious and bright. Unfortunately, there is no pride of ownership at this venue. Simple items are missing: top sheets, comforters that are the right size, hand towels and face clothes, basic shampoo and conditioner, garbage cans in bedrooms, adequate hangers, a place to put suitcase (luggage holder or a simple folding chair), a plastic shower liner, clean drain plug and not enough mugs (there are 2 mismatched mugs)!!!!The front lawn is overgrown. There is a nice back deck but hard to access and without any outdoor chairs. The driveway is small and shared which is tricky if you have a SUV. Lastly, the home was not well cleaned; especially bathroom tub, floors and counters….found a coffee pot still filled with stale coffee etc on the counter. I notified the owner, he did not acknowledge or apologize. The price is not a “bargain” so it’s reasonable to expect basics. This property has so much potential. I regret that I did not read the reviews carefully because some of the issues noted above have been there before. Sadly, the issues have not been corrected ( ie broken dishwasher) which makes the point that there is no pride of ownership.
• Lu (10/5): Exceptional -
• Shaherazad (7/5): Good - It was very bright, lots of windows. The check in was very smooth and the instructions very precise. The area was quiet. Nice neighborhood. The host responded very promptly to requests. There were a lot of Ants in the house, also the driveway parking is tricky if you have a bigger car. No bath soap, and so we had to go out and purchase that late at night. The kitchen had an odour which seemed to be coming from the dishwasher as there was stagnant water at the bottom.
• Rodrigue (10/5): Beautiful modern and quiet home - Quiet location, comfortable beds and excellent television. Well equipped Kitchen. The tub was a little high for a senior and a grab bar would have made getting in and out of the tub a little easier. Was careful not to fall but a grab bar would have been handy.
• M. (7/5): Nice host and property that needs a few adjustments - Nice and responsive host Good sized property in a quiet location. Nice living area and good sized rooms. - Bedding needs more attention (short bedlinen, thin blanket). A correctly sized bedding would be enough to make bedding feel nice instead of improvised. - Providing shower gel and shampoo would be an easy trick to make the bathroom feel equipped. - Pots and pans need to be replaced, way too old and scratched
• Linda (10/5): Excellent - Very well appointed apartment. Great quiet location. Comfortable beds. Nice kitchen and living room area.
• Ruth (6/5): Pleasant - Good location, comfortable beds, nice tv. Overall spartan amenities, for example bedding, insufficient for season, no bedding provided for couch. No kettle, dishwasher is broken.
• Ivan (10/5): Excellent. Clean and cozy property. I would stay there again - Clean and cozy property.
• Azdesigns (7/5): Good - Very spacious and fit our family well. Price is almost unbeatable. TV has several included streaming services that are available between activities and as the kids wound down at night. Location is excellent and is 10-15 minutes from downtown. Beds are extremely comfortable. Fantastic coat storage area. Spacious fridge. Cleanliness is less than average with some residue left on various surfaces in between visits. The cookware is in very rough shape and almost unusable. Several fixtures are in disrepair. Dishwasher was unusable while we were there but the sink had room for cleaning.
• Jordan (4/5): Disappointing - Spacious for my family, early check in was provided and communication with host was great! Poor quality furniture (couch was not comfortable and tiny), beds were a good size and comfortable but poor quality blankets (sheets were not provided, just a comforter and 2 pillows). 2 towels were provided (we had a group of 6). The space itself was very poorly cleaned (counters had crumbs, stools at counter had hair and crumbs, as did the floor throughout the living room and kitchen space. The bedrooms were clean but unsure if comforters or towels were washed prior to our stay. There were no extra blankets or towels. The dishwasher did not work and leaked when we tried to clean and do dishes prior to leaving. Hair in bathroom sink and on counter upon arrival along with soap leftover that was not ours (both on bathroom counter and in shower). Very poor cleaning job.
• Wendy (10/5): A pickleball tournament must! - It is close to all amenities, clean and comfortable in a quiet residential area. The host was very communicative.
• Ameen (8/5): Very good - Clean, newly renovated. It's in a quiet neighbourhood, great for families.
• Sandra (10/5): Lovely comfy and roomy place - Place is well located, 10 min to where we were going. Lovely neighborhood. Park nearby. Property impeccable with all we needed for our stay. Beds very comfortable and quiet place for a good sleep. Communication with the owner super easy. Would definitely stay again. Almost nothing really. Suggest to put a sign for the shower water: hot and cold is reversed - not that it was an issue. A nice touch would be a hair dryer. Oh an provide liquid: bath soap, shampoo and conditioner
• Kwon (10/5): Exceptional - Nice, clean, spacious just like what I saw in photo. 👍
