Our stay was great this hotel was so charming. Only problem is we kept hearing a door slamming right under our room all night long. I think the restaurant or kitchen was under us and it was bothersome to listen to that door slamming.

Cute and stylish hotel
The hotel lobby is really cute. Rooms were stylish and comfortable. Staff was friendly and very helpful. I liked getting updates and having text access for questions. We really enjoyed our short visit in this hotel. Also, Portsmouth was a really cute city, walkable and with tons of shops and restaurants nearby. Very happy with our stay.
