Lots of character
Good location. Away from the hustle and bustle (noise) but still walkable to lots of restaurants. New vibe feels a bit crowded and busy unfortunately.

Unique small hotel in downtown Portsmouth
Interesting hotel built from an old house. Easy walking access to the main part of downtown. Free parking behind the hotel. Love the quirky decor and unique rooms. Many public spaces and an elevator which makes it much easier to access your room if it’s on an upper floor. Nice breakfast in the breakfast area.
Quirky and fun decor for our room

Charming
So charming. Loved the roaring fire in the living roam and bright breakfast room. Very tastefully decorated throughout. Short 5-minute walk to restaurants and ample parking behind the hotel. Unfortunately, battery was kaput in our temperature control so room was freezing but they fixed it in the morning. I would definitely stay here again.
