Very good, things that would have improved it: a safe in the room especially with the window opening on to the flat roof. A/C in the room would have been good considering the exceptional hot weather

Very good place to stay if you're spending time at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. Its seafaring connections are clear as soon as you go in. There's some parking on site and the breakfast is averagely good for this sort of hotel. Congratulations to the cleaning team - very clean throughout.

Very basic room, although clean. You probably need binoculars to see the TV on the wall on the corner. I got charged 2 nights although I stayed for 1, and they wouldn't refund me although they said they would. Never again would I stay here nor recommended it.

Building itself was older and the routing to the room a bit complicated. Very clean rooms and very friendly personell. Had water stains on their bathroom ceiling. But no mold so just need a proper paint job.
