Very nice, clean, safe property. Rooms are nice, people are nice. Price was extremely high. Paid over $500 night over UNH graduation weekend plus 29 dollars a night for parking. Not worth that kind of money, but no complaints about the property. Highly recommend the property if your stay is not during prime time.

Great location. Though we couldn’t park adjacent to the hotel because the street was cut off for a parade. Would have liked to know that ahead of time. Besides that, 2 thumbs up

Amazing place! Abby the property manager was so patient to answer my questions and she helped us to extend our stay when we asked her. The place is so modern, comfortable and clean. The location is perfect for easy walking to restaurants and shops. Instructions on stay were clear and I asked for an extra blanket and it was provided. Just a really great place to enjoy Portsmouth, NH.

Property was really clean and quaint. What we really liked is that the building was converted into a modern-day inn using an apartment building format. All restaurants and shops are within easy walking distance and the town of Portsmouth is a place we will definitely visit again.

Room was so charming and clean. Everything looked so neat first walking into the room. When originally booking the room, I was no aware of the history of it and made my partner fall in love with the place more. It’s in perfect location to all the stores and restaurants Portsmouth has to offer. Would stay here again, and recommend to others.

The Inn Downtown was in a good area for walking, shopping and eating downtown. We were charged a $50 fee to check-in early even though our room was ready and the cost could have been easily waved. The pillows were so stuffed we couldn’t sleep on them without hurting our necks. Also, there was no wine opener for the wine we opened that they provided, and we couldn’t figure out how to turn the coffee maker on. The building is cool and the history is awesome.

We were very pleasantly surprised about the Inn. Everything was intentional and all the finishes, from the bedding, fridge and furniture, were all high quality and comfortable. We even got a pack n' play and half expected a Chico or similar brand, but they even brought a high-end brand name for that. We'd recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be back!

This was a great location however the property itself felt very dark inside and not a lot of lamps. Perhaps it was too modern with the dark black walls by the bed. Communication through a 3rd party also made it slightly challenging.

The accommodation is located in a charming historic building in a great vibrant village-like town. The interior space has a mid mod vibe, and is spacious, and easy to use. Had a nice dinner, as recommended, a nice walk to the waterfront and a nice ice cream. Pretty perfect!
