What guests think

Reviews of Quality Inn & Suites Portsmouth describe a budget stay with very mixed experiences: many guests praise friendly staff, easy check-ins, and occasional clean, comfortable rooms, while others report issues that significantly affect comfort and reliability during their stay.

Common problems include broken or ill-fitting room doors and locks, weak in-room Wi‑Fi away from the lobby, and noise from nearby trains or traffic. Cleanliness is frequently criticized, with reports of bugs, lingering smoke odors, stained bedding, and worn furnishings. Facilities draw complaints too: the pool is often closed, some ice machines and exterior doors do not work, and tricky access with parked trucks or a steep drive is noted; breakfast ranges from decent to poorly stocked. Expect a basic, inconsistent stay best suited to travelers prioritizing price or proximity to the highway.

The wifi access was lacking. They have wifi but unless your room is right next to the lobby, forget it. The business next to them, parks semi truck trailers in the road going to the hotel. Hazard potential for sure but that's not the hotel's fault.

The place was unkept, broken mirror glass in the hallway, np working ice machines, back door left open with a rock, felt unsafe, wreaked of cigarette smoke one morning, water leaked running down the wall of the shower creating mold, ask for towels twice and then had to go after them ourselves, looked like blood by the back door by the bucket. There was a heated confrontation between a customer and the front desk worker. Room 137

We arrived to the property, and the check in process was swift. However, when we got to our rooms we discovered that the doors were not locked and the locks were actually broken on both rooms. We reported it to the front desk attendant who made a note for the manager to fix it. The next morning, we attempted to follow up with the manager who quickly dismissed us & told us he would get to it. Apparently there were SEVERAL door locks not functioning as we overheard that another guest had the wrong locked placed back on their door and was locked out of their rooms. We stayed for 3 nights and the door locks were never fixed the entire time!!

I personally notified Quality Inn front desk lady and I also showed her one of the Roaches I killed that had a roach egg sack attached to its body. All night long off and on their were Roaches that were crawling on the small dresser table with the light on it. Roaches crawling on the little refrigarator, the TV Cabenet, on the wall. Also Stink bugs on ceiling and wall.

They have a no smoking policy but their hallways smelled like pot and cigarette smoke. Our room was not cleaned. There was dried blood on the bedding and dirty wash cloths over the shower curtain. We did not complain at the desk as we were exhausted from traveling and just wanted to sleep.

If there would've anything else available within 40 miles i would of left and went there, but there ws nothing available. We checked in and the clerk acted like it was a hassle to check us in. We came down Sunday morning and the desk clerk was scesming at tge other about how bad this job was and she should go elsewhere. Totally unprofessional!! I WOULD NOT!!! Recommend this facility for anyone!!

The shower curtain was too long for where they hing the bar. The train outside was so loud I felt like I was camping on a runway. Breakfast was decent, but they ran out of stuff an hour in. The smell of cigarette smoke wafted into the room during the night. You could smell pot in the hallway. Probably wouldn’t stay here again.

Our room had candy stuck to the floor around the nightstand. The bathroom toilet was broken and never stopped running the water was 1inch from the seat at all times. Won’t be back unfortunately yet the front desk lady was amazing she deserves a better facility..

The staff was very nice got us the room next door but it’s not what we expected to do. Nice place to stay we spent the night there the previous week at the start of our trip and decided to return on our trip home.

We went to our family function and got back about 8:30 PM and found our room in the same condition. Then got our room changed and tried to settle for the night. However, the mattress was in such broken down condition that we could hardly stay on the bed. We couldn't adjust the heat to a comfortable level and there was a roaring noise outside.

I don't even know where to begin with how disappointing this hotel was. I rated a few categories as 2 instead of 1 because the young lady who checked us in was doing her best when her computer failed. The pictures on the website must be more than a decade old as it looks NOTHING like that now. The pictures of the breakfast are laughable! The only hot food was a crockpot of gravy to pour over some prefab biscuits. There was not much of anything else. The lobby had two decrepit filthy stained wing back chairs that should have been taken our and burned. Our room was so dark and dingy that I was afraid to even sit on the furniture. My first move was to pull up the comforter and sheets to look for bedbugs. Finding none, I did sleep in one of the double beds but my wife was not as fortunate as her bed sloped badly from one corner to the opposite corner. She was a sweetheart and didn't want my stay to be any worse than it was so she didn't say anything until we left. The toilet flap in the tank leaked so that the toilet constantly refilled and emptied throughout the night. The shower had hot water, but a flimsy little shower head that produced a slight ring of water rather than a descent shower. There was no housekeeping at all after our first of two nights. The hotel is located on top of a little hill with no barrier nor warning that you could drive off a cliff into the business below if not careful. DO NOT STAY HERE!
