Sweet place and great location
Right in the heart of downtown within walking distance to multiple shops and restaurants. Great view of the river. The apartment was clean and nice. My only complaint would be not being able to open the window to let in the night air. Have already recommended the place to friends and we would definitely stay here again. Our host was very responsive when we discovered the battery was low on the door lock. Thanks, Joy!

Great Location-Unique Setting
Adorable unit in waterfront neighborhood in downtown Portsmouth. Would be hard to find anything else like it. Cleaners missed quite a few spots to ready the property (including something on sheets) but otherwise place was great. No parking near property but owner provided garage pass for undercover parking a very short walk away. Unusually, refrigerator drawers were completely full of owner's drinks so that limits your fridge space - but if you don't need a lot that's not a hindrance.

Fantastic!
We loved the place and will definitely be back! It was very nice and clean, a terrific location, and had super cool the decor. It was near my favorite restaurant - The Black Trumpet! The host was very accommodating, easy to work with, and super quick to respond when booking. Thanks for an awesome getaway! We will be back. 😊
