I had a great stay! Really cool place. Entire check-in process was very laidback. They even had a plugin fan in room if you are a person that needs noise for a restful sleep like myself.

Saturday, 5pm housekeeping came knocked and came in without a chance for us to answer the door. She doesn't have enough towels; but what she did bring she put ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR and didn't clean up or make the bed. For what we paid, I figured service would be a tad bit better than a motel 6. Very disappointing. There was a toenail by my pillow on the bed frame. My husband's pillow smelled of old spice, he doesn't wear old spice. Unacceptable.

The rooms are nice, and the location is good. There's no one at the desk past 6-ish. It took me three phones and a couple of texts to figure out the keys to the room, but it was a minor inconvenience. I will definitely stay here again when I get back to Portsmouth.

I know check out time is at 11. I was back at 11 sharp to find my room bring cleaned and told that check out is at 11. So this person was in my room before the designated time and was very rude.
