We stayed here for one night driving from Toronto to the Eastern Townships in Quebec. 

If you need two beds, this is perfect. Each room is two separate rooms joined by a shared bathroom, and the price is incredibly reasonable. The AC worked well and everything was clean. This isn't a hotel (it's a dormitory for students at Queen's during the school year) so don't expect the full facilities of a hotel, but it was perfect for my needs.

It's in a quiet and nice part of Kingston, right on the Queen's campus - it's not a long walk downtown, and it's only a few steps from the lake.

Great value

This is a nice place for you to crash after a long day of sightseeing in Kingston. It's in the heart of the City and in the heart of Queen's university.  This location is inside University district and the cleanliness and tidiness of the place blew us off. For the price we paid, we felt we got even more value. It's nothing fancy but the rooms are spacious enough to enjoy your stay. Walk to the lake is only 3 mins and the front desk staff are very kind. Check-in and out was very smooth and they are very customer friendly. Highly recommended and we will come back again next time we are in beautiful Kingston !!

Pleasant stay - high value for money

Great location for the lake or the University. Walkable to downtown. VERY clean rooms. Lovely staff. Don't expect luxury--remember, it's a dorm. But if you need a pleasant place to sleep while visiting Kingston, this works well.

Perfect for the thrifty traveller.

Stayed with a group. The so called 'suite' is 2  rooms adjoined by a single bathroom. 
Each room sleeps 1 person adequately, although the beds are very uncomfortable... light foam mattress on a metal frame. You have to book both rooms because of the adjoining bathroom.... you could sleep 4 people if you chose.but couples who did share the bed said it was very uncomfortable. The room itself is very clean and modern. The community lounge/kitchen is pleasant and has fridge/stove/ microwave. The location is ideal ....a short walk to Breakwater Park.  The check in staff were less than professional.  Really a group of first year students more intent on chatting than assisting. They seemed annoyed by our questions about the accommodations and  general information.For the price $60.00 per person per night, I expected  a level of professionalism equal to that of a hotel check in.

Average accommodations- nothing special

I stayed in Leggett Hall when I was an undergraduate student at Queen's University. I had a bit of nostalgia fever when booking a stay at David C. Smith House. The accommodations at David C. Smith House are not as comfortable as Leggett Hall. The accommodates reflect what I consider to be overly "value engineering" when compared to the spaces and finishes of Leggett Hall. For example, there are no proper taps in the bathrooms, just a timed switch for the water (no temperature control). The bed was uncomfortable. The faux wood flooring and hard surfaces throughout the residents resulted in loud, echoing noises at all hours. While inexpensive, there are more comfortable options available.

Not very comfortable

This is one of the Queens University dormitories. Each “room” has two separate bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and each bedroom has a small fridge. There is a laundry room . And there is a kitchen with microwave, fridge and stove on each floor. 
Each reservation is for a double bedroom so no one will be moving into your other room.
The beds are doubles and comfortable enough, but I would recommend bringing your own or extra pillows. The temperature control is in one of the bedrooms. The cost with tax wad about $103 per night. The bath rooms are fine, smallish with a shower stall. Each room has its own tv and there is WiFi .
It is a 25 minute walk to Princess street and on the block behind is Lake Ontario and the Gord Downie Pier, built recently and a great place for a swimm; lots of kids and families. The evening seems to be taken over by older teens and young adults.

Night in Kingston 

Came to stay here with my husband and 2 older family members. We booked 2 suites so each of us got a separate bedroom with a shared bathroom in each suite. Since this is a dormitory during the academic year, everything was pretty basic but clean with a lot of storage space, a desk and a mini fridge. The beds were a little high, presumably to allow students additional storage space underneath, but it made them a little harder for the older family members to get into. Being double sized, they seemed too narrow to comfortably sleep two adults, though I did see a few guests who booked a single suite for two couples.

Frankly, my only major gripe was the noise. The public hallway was not acoustically treated and there was a pretty big gap underneath the doors so you could hear people talking and kids screaming at all hours. I'm surprised this issue was not addressed, considering all the complaints. Some carpeting and a few acoustic tiles would have done wonders.

Otherwise I would not have had any hesitation recommending this. The location is nice and it is good value.
