Staff are very helpful and room was clean. Only down side is the coffee and tea are not the best and not good for anyone with disabilities. But overall a nice place to stay for a few days .
Hôtel was perfect. Nice and clean, spacious room, receptionist when I checked in was lovely, hotel was perfect location for why I was visiting Portsmouth
Nice and clean from the minute we walked in the door. Very happy with the room and overall stay

Could not get the wifi to work.
Stuggled to close the bathroom door.
The main room door had to be pushed shut even though it was a fire door with a self closure on it.
