It took me 30 minutes to find a parking spot. There’s no signs to help people find the back lot which is kind of hidden. The elevator got stuck a couple of times, so I had to take the stairs. The third floor ice machine was out of order and the tv remote only half worked. But at least I had hot water unlike my last visit. I will say the man at front desk was helpful and patient with everyone

If you are looking for a cheap place to stay and are only there to sleep, then this is your place. It is checper then the other hotels in the area. If you are looking to enjoy the extras like the pool, gym etc..I would not recommend staying here.

Pros: * The hotel is conveniently located near public free parking for New Year’s fireworks. * The Roundabout Restaurant is directly connected to the hotel. • A good size suite with two full beds and a TV; a living room with adjustable temperatures, a sofa, an TV and a kitchen. * The lobby offers complimentary coffee. Cons: * The indoor pool is in an awkward location; reaching it from the suites requires passing by the reception area, navigating through other spaces, and finally arriving at a small, easily missed room. * The in-door pool is outdated, poorly maintained, unheated, and the rinse water is cold water only. * Fitness room next to the indoor pool and fitness equipments are mostly broken. * The key card deactivates at 9:30AM instead of the 11AM checkout time, requiring a trip to the reception desk to reactivate. * Shampoo and conditioner bottles are as small as a pinky finger, providing enough for only one person despite the suit could fit 3 people.

We were originally booked 10 days, but came back and stayed an extra night. Our first room had ants in the bathroom. Like a lot. They were coming up from the floor. After 3 days of no help, we bought some tape and taped over the hole. Other than that the stay was perfect. When we originally checked in we were told there was no elevator access so we got a new room without any problems. Excellent location. Really yummy diner attached.

The room was not cleaned. There was old recycling in the bin, tissue in the door's peep hole, and hair in the tub and on the walls of the shower. The coffee maker was covered in dust. The chair in the room smelled of a stale ashtray and cheap fruity body spray. Pretty gross. The next morning I could smell gas. I would not recommend.

Stayed 14 nights

Where do I start? 1. Our tub wasn’t draining properly & as a result my sister fell & smashed her head & shoulder. When this was mentioned to housekeeping it was laughed off. It wasn’t funny to us. 3 weeks later and her shoulder is still sore. 2. Out of 14 days we only had housekeeping 3 times. We had to grab our own supplies. 3. Our fridge froze EVERYTHING. We ended up throwing out 90% of our leftovers because we they would either be frozen solid or 50% frozen which isn’t safe to eat. Lots of money wasted. We tried to turn it down and it didn’t work. Our drinks also froze solid. 4. There was something sharp sticking up right at the bathroom door. Nothing was done. 5. As we were packing up to leave we noticed black mold on the ceiling. We were there for 14 days breathing that in. It looks like the room above might have had a leak and it was just crappily painted over. I wish we looked closer when we noticed the pain job. 6. The whole room just had a damp feeling to it. The only positives were the extremely friendly front desk staff. They always had a smile on their faces and apologized profusely for the lack of housekeeping. The beds were extremely comfortable which was nice because it was a long stay. The best part was the delicious diner next door. Highly recommended even if you don’t stay here. This isn’t the norm for this hotel. I travel to NH every couple months and this is my go to hotel. I am willing to give them one more chance solely out of convenience.

Decent location but very limited parking. Room was not ready when we arrived to check-in at 1700 the first night; had to wait two hours. Ants were in our bathroom the entire four day stay. Beds were comfy as well as a lot of assorted bed pillows. Toiletries were good as well as the kcups for the Keurig coffee pot in the room. The AC unit and small refrigerator in the room were quiet, unlike some really loud ones I've encountered in the past. Staff was friendly but the motel itself is very old and needs some updating. I would recommend if you are looking for a decent and comfortable stay for a few nights but if you're looking for a fancy stay, this is not it. Room could've been cleaned a bit better for my taste. I found a vitamin on the floor by the bed and as I said the bathroom had ants which I did mention to the desk clerk. Lastly, I prefer hard flooring versus carpet in rooms as I only imagine how dirty it is.

There's a restaurant attached (seemed busy but we didn't go) and they have an indoor pool which we didn't use. Room was clean, bed was comfortable good enough to crash for one night for us. Less than two miles to downtown Portsmouth, so short, cheap Uber ride. One negative is room or front desk did not have a wine bottle opener :(

The hotel is obviously making an effort. When we checked in, the lobby does not make a great impression. Walking through the halls, our concern was growing - definitely in need of some work. We were very relieved to get to the newer part of the building and find that our room was very nice & clean. It was fine for a quick stay - I would want to stay somewhere else if I was going to be in town for longer than that.

This was a nice stop for a good nights rest on the way to Maine. We enjoyed a good nights sleep and then finished our drive. I do wish they would offer some bagels and a simple breakfast but that seems to be going out the window on a lot of hotels. Complimentary breakfast is a fair expectation imo. Very clean and great location so overall I would recommend this place a a solid night stay.
