This location is in need of a bit of updating. There is only one VERY tiny elevator. Our room was not very clean upon our arrival and the air conditioner stopped working halfway through our stay. The staff working that particular day were very helpful, but other staff members on different occasions were less than kind and even sarcastic. The pool area is the nicest part of this hotel. Overall, I would stay here again but only because it is far better than any of the other options in Portsmouth. If they updated their facilities, this could easily be a 4 star stay.

The hotel in general was clean and the staff I spoke with were friendly. I would have liked the fitted sheets to be pulled and tucked in tightly, as they were loose, which gave the appearance someone had previously slept in the bed. Next visit I will request a room away from the ice dispenser, as I could hear visitors retrieving their ice which was a disturbance. I did not read the fine print and assumed there would be a continental breakfast, no free breakfast but there is a restaurant in the building.

Unlike many hotels there’s no breakfast buffet so we paid a little extra for a made to order breakfast. They must be severely understaffed in the kitchen because both days took forever; in fact, on day two we waited 40 minutes FOR BREAKFAST and never received our food and we needed to get on the road so we left. Front desk was nice enough to refund the cost of the breakfast voucher and the waitress was incredibly nice and very sorry it had taken so long. Went back to tip her as we didn’t feel should she be punished for something out of her control, and it just so happened that our meals were ready. She bagged them up so we could take them with us. Overpriced room because Holiday Inn is the only hotel in town so they can gouge people and they’ll pay or go miles down the road. Room was nice although bathroom was a bit outdated and there were cobwebs in the corners. Pool and fitness center were filthy dirty. For the price we paid we definitely expected and should’ve received more from this hotel.

Amazing Bed! So comfortable. Not too firm, not too soft. Just right. Pillows were marked with a pillowcase that indicated "soft" and "firm". This is a nice touch. Breakfast is sit down. $20 purchased two plates of strawberry/whipped cream waffles. Nice pool, opened at 6AM. Perfect for kiddos who are road weary and restless.
