Reviews for Kingsway Inn

Review 1:Older fellow who checked us in was not welcoming, didn't smile, hardly spoke at all. His English was good, as I heard him talking afterwards to a MAN. Thin walls, crazy ranting guy in the room next door, didn't stop until around 6 am. On the other wall was a drunk fellow in and out of his room all night. Towels and sheets were scratchy and needed to be bleached. No airconditioning.

Review 2:bed was good, room was OK size. Shower was good. TV good. WiFi minimal, seems like it was intentionally made that way.

Review 3:Although we stipulated in booking, that we would be arriving late- our reception was cold, borderline rude. Their is no air conditioning, even though it states on the web site that they do have it. It is tucked away on a small street, away from any services, is dark and not well lit.

Review 4:The linen was clean and so was the shower.

Review 5:Where do I begin? The owner at the desk could not speak English, We had booked a double room, however as it turned out I was solo. I was not offered any credit for only one person. The room was extremely hot as there was no working control for the heat. Room was very tired and all finishes needed an upgrade. The telephone did not work. I could not speak to anyone in English as no one spoke it. I wanted my money back and wanted to go somewhere else but he knew what I was asking and refused to refund me my money. Had to leave the front door open to make room comfortable. Had a terrible night's sleep (or lack of it) Please take this Hotel off your list. Brian Hein

Review 6:Absolutely nothing

Review 7:earings and hair left in bathroom sink, hole in wall, filthy carpets, and filthy drawers

Review 8:Great location. Minutes away from malls and restaurants. Nice staff

Review 9:The staff didn't understand English very well, they did not follow thru with request to not be disturbed.. My mother had passed away early hrs of morning & my adult son had requested no room service so I could sleep (rest).. Request was not followed thru.. I later checked out & stayed with comfort inn Whom were soo super awesome with my grieving..

Review 10:Bed was hard and not enough pillows. The heating stayed on all night and you had no control of the temperature. Rooms could do with updating. Walls were very thin as we could hear the neighbours snoring during the night.

Review 11:park outside room and water pressure

Review 12:Coffee and tea was not available until after 8am. (We were leaving at 7). No coffee pot in room and the heat was not turned on for us.

Review 13:It was quiet and there was free coffee and tea provided. The rooms did not smell like smoke and it was in a quiet area.

Review 14:The heating system is from the owners place, Indian cooking was too much. Walls are paper thin, heard snoring and talking all nite. Left property early slept in car

Review 15:Near the train tracks.

Review 16:Very handy to the airport. Fridge & microwave. Good TV and WiFi. Parking by the door. Bathroom counter top. Inexpensive.

Review 17:This a very poor place in all respects I work construction and am not picky about where i sleep,but i would not recommend this place to anyone. Dont let the cheaper price entice you. The soap provided in the shower was even poor quality. about the only good thing was the available parking as there were no other customers

Review 18:When we came in we had to wait for the clerk to hold his conversation in his personal phone... meanwhile when he was booking us in he didn't even take his cell phone off his ear, then he tried to push a smoking room after we told him five times that we didn't want it. Later in the night after going to get food our TV didn't work and the guy blamed my boyfriend for breaking it... it took him ten minutes of arguing for him to come help us. Last but not least the walls were paper thin neither of us could sleep due to another rather loud snoring customer. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone just due to the service alone!

Review 19:No restaurants close by within walking distance. Walls paper thin - could hear next room on the phone. Room small but adequate.

Review 20:Good value for the price.

I booked this place because of the good reviews on Booking.com but I feel that I've been ripped off. And looking at the reviews again, I don't think they are real. Believe me, avoid this place. And the staff were not friendly as well.

Review 78:Centrally located. No fuss Wifi - required no password.

Review 79:It is a budget motel but they keep it clean for the money you are paying. Don't stay here if you are very picky and have high expectations.

Review 88:I lived in Thunder Bay 30 years ago and drove past the Kingsway many times. This was my first time staying there, and I was quite pleased. It was very well maintained and absolutely spotless. The only thing lacking was an outdoor receptacle for the car. Justin must have been having a bad day!

Review 89:It needed to be updated and things were worn. There were a few repairs needed but for the money it was good. It was clean, just old.

Review 90:I liked that it was cheap. I had a flight layover in a short night. I needed a place for 6 hours.

Review 91:The word to describe this motel is gross. the theoretical 'no-smoking' room had cigarette burns and had been descented with a deoderizer so strong it made my sinuses ache. This was the second room we tried as the first one was so musty it was not habitable. tear it down and start over!
