Adequate room, a bit noisy
Pros:

I'm not sure if the in-season price is worth it, given that this location is on a highway and fairly noisy, but it was a good deal in April. The room was fine, with a nice supply of in-room coffee, shampoo, lotion, etc. It was just a short drive to Portsmouth and there was easy access to the road to Maine, my destination. I didn't see where the pool was (it would be closed in April anyway) and did not try the breakfast. I appreciated the in-room coffee in the morning.

Cons:

The room was a bit noisy, but suppose that can't be helped on a highway. They put me right next to the office, for some reason (they were not filled) so some rolling suitcase noise outside as well.

Comfy Beds
Pros:

The location is right off the highway and very easy to get to. The parking is good, and almost directly in front of our room. The beds were very comfortable.

Cons:

The nightstand outlets were not working.

The pictures on the website are beautiful that is not the case in person. Nothing about our stay here for even one night
Pros:

Not much.

Cons:

The suite we reserved was on 2nd floor off lobby up a narrow staircase. I asked if they had any on ground level, they said no and then offered me a studio on ground level. If I’d known the suites were only in 2nd floor I wouldn’t have booked, my husband had mobility issues. I was charged for a suite but ended up in the studio with no credit for price difference. The host said it was a $3 difference in price 🤔 still no credit applied.

Tolles Personal, große und saubere Zimmer, leckeres Frühstück!
Pros:

Wir haben dieses Hotel nur gewählt weil es auf unserer Reiseroute Richtung Boston lag uns wurden positiv überrascht. Portsmouth ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert und bei dieser Untekrunft macht man definitiv nichts falsch. Die Zimmer sind geräumig, sehr sauber, und die Betten sind komfortabel. Ganz toll war das Personal: Als wir hier waren wurden wir vom Schneesturm überrascht und mussten früher abreisen als geplant und gebucht. Die zuständige Mitarbeiterin an der Rezeption war super verständnisvoll und hilfsbereit und dank Ihrer Unterstützung konnten wir alles ohne Probleme mit booking.com abwickeln. Ganz klasse Service!
Auch richtig gut war erstaunlicherweise das Frühstück. Es gibt einen Pancake-Automaten, Müsli und Cornflakes, Milch und Milchalternativen, verschiedene Heißgetränke, verschiedene Joghurts, verschiedene Muffins, Brote mit Aufstrichen. Für amerikanische Verhältnisse extrem gut. Außerdem auch hier wieder: Eine ganz liebe Dame, die das Frühstück betreut und parallel für Ordnung sorgt und aufstockt. Toller Service!

Cons:

Alles super.
