It’s an out dated hotel in need of an upgrade but clean. The gentlemen at the desk were very nice. We would stay here again for the price compared to the over priced hotels in town because it is clean and that is huge for us.

Its proximity to shopping in Kittery and live yet quaint downtown Portsmouth makes this an ideal budget friendly stay. I can’t complain about having a spectacular diner located next door too.

There’s a pool and a diner that’s always busy right next to it - fresh off the highway and a good place to stay In Portsmouth - cheaper than market square and only a few minutes to the inner city - also city in parking is cheap $2-4 bucks an hour so better to save money here vs market square- rooms were clean and good
