I had a great stay! Really cool place. Entire check-in process was very laidback. They even had a plugin fan in room if you are a person that needs noise for a restful sleep like myself.

After you have paid your bill, they asked for $35 fee for parking. There was no attendant to even check us in. In a text before we arrived there was an opportunity to ask questions which I did but got no responses. If we hadn't met someone who knew the code to get in, we would not have have been able to get into the facility. All in all customer service was non-existent

The rooms are nice, and the location is good. There's no one at the desk past 6-ish. It took me three phones and a couple of texts to figure out the keys to the room, but it was a minor inconvenience. I will definitely stay here again when I get back to Portsmouth.
