The hotel has a great location for exploring the historic sites of Portsmouth, with friendly staff and some noise issues. The rooms were decent and clean, but lacked modern amenities like a proper shower. The service was fantastic, especially the welcoming staff. The location is ideal for visiting the nearby attractions. The dining offered delicious options but had limited choices due to external factors. Overall, good value for money with free parking available.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, though spacious with a great harbor view, looked a bit grubby and could use some care. The service was friendly and accommodating, with some requests occasionally forgotten. The location was excellent, close to historical sites and accessible transportation, despite some concerns about the area's safety. The dining experience was good, with hot meals and convenient parking, but lacked extraordinary dishes. Overall, the facilities met my basic needs, but some areas needed attention.

The hotel had both positive and negative aspects to consider. The location was excellent for visiting the Historic Dockyard and Gunwharf Keys shopping center, but the room was desperately in need of refurbishment. The service was a mix of very good and reserved experiences, while the dining was described as glamorous but with plentiful wholesome food. Overall, it's a decent option with room for improvement.
