Quality Inn Portsmouth

Definitely will be staying here again.

This is a tired old rundown hotel. It needs a serious refresh. There were stains on the couch and stains on the hall carpet. The shower was actually quite good. Not a fan of having the basin outside the bathroom.

The bad: The room itself was “generically” clean, but not clean once you spent a few minutes inside. Grease marks from food and fingerprints on the table in the room, trash between the bed and nightstand from the previous “guests”. It was very clear that it was a rush job. The bathtub did not drain well and would fill up to your ankles when taking a shower. The bathroom had no window or forced ventilation to pull moisture out when showering. The coffee pot in the room has clearly seen better days and was not well kept, so that was avoided. The hot tub was a nice idea and was enjoyed (but not well maintained). It was noticed after the jets were off that there was quite of bit of film on the interior walls of it, that clearly has been building for a little while and needed some scrubbing. The Good: Staff was friendly. The pool was well maintained and would make for good kid activities when weather prohibits being outside or at the end of the day. (Pool is a long narrow pool, with a 3ft shallow to a 5ft deep end). The pool design is nice when there aren’t many people there, but a few people make it “packed” very quickly. Breakfast included the nicest benefit for having a full family trip. It made it much easier to start the mornings without having to search for a restaurant or wait in tourist length lines. Overall: if you do not mind an outdated hotel, that needs modernization, this is not a bad place when trying to keep costs down.

Breakfast menu was standard free breakfast. The hot tub could have been a degree or 2 hotter. My room was did not have a working vent in bathroom so it was stuffy and smelly, sticky bathroom floor and carpet. Also noted mold in corner of room by outside wall. We originally declined housekeeping for our second d a y, but requested it the morning of but it did not happen.

te staff was nice & helpful, the room comfortable & the breakfast good.
