Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Very convenient to downtown , historic Portsmouth and SSU. Several restaurants are nearby and interesting good menus. Good for a family. Beds are comfortable. Lots of available products one may have forgotten to bring. A lot of thought has been given to the travelers needs. This is an older home that is in need of some repairs. A/C great. Washer and dryer available.
