Great Breakfast Our stay was nice. The room was spacious. The breakfast was awesome! And the staff was friendly.

I stay in Portsmouth quite a bit and this is usually my preferred hotel. On this stay, however, I was on a higher floor than usual and it seems that the rooms haven't been renovated there yet. It's very clear a couch was once in the room but now it's just a big empty space. The room I was in was much closer to the highway than I've been before and it was incredibly loud. I know there are renovations going on currently but this is the first stay I've had here that's been impacted by it; every other time I'mt the last few months has been exceptional. And as always, the staff was excellent.

My husband and I stayed 4/2-4/5/25. When we booked the hotel we saw that this location was doing construction to update the rooms. We had requested the 5th floor to be away from the construction. We were given the 1st floor with a remodeled room. We were told the 2nd & 4th floors were still under construction. Our room was nice & clean and quiet during the night. Morning breakfast was great every morning. Front staff & breakfast staff were all very friendly. *1st issue: In the mornings (around 9am), there was very loud construction in the room directly above us. We had to get up early and leave every day to avoid the loud construction noise. *2nd issue: After long day of walking and exploring, we were looking forward to using the hot tub each night. Hours for the pool/hot tub area is posted as 6am -10pm on the pool door and on the website. We were able to use the hot tub until 10pm for 1night. Then on 4/4, there were a large group of cheerleaders that checked in and small girls using the pool & hot tub for most of the night. We waited patiently (20 minutes) for them to leave and then we were able to use the hot tub at around 8:50pm, which we didn't mind since the previous night we hung out until 10pm. Around 9:05pm, a large man with a "security" shirt comes into the pool area and starts yelling at us "time to go, pool & hot tub is closed". We said we thought it closed at 10pm, then he yelled back at us - the sign is posted that it closes at 9pm! They had printed a new sign.

Good except for the last night Overall, we had a great stay, unfortunately our last night was disappointing due to an unannounced change to the pool hours. My party got there about 8:45pm and then a "security" person came around 9:10pm and said we needed to get out of the pool area as it was now closed. There was a different pool sign posted that said the pool was closed at 9pm instead of the usual 10pm. We didn't think to check to see that the sign changed because why would it?? Oh, it changed because there were now about 100 kids staying at the hotel and the hotel didn't want the kids in the pool area after 9pm so they made it closed for all guests of this hotel. It felt like the hotel prioritized the large group of kids over the rest of the guests. Very disappointing.
