Uncomfortable bed and the sheets kept coming off mattress. Our room was at the back of the building in a dark corridor accessed only via a number of twists and turns down other corridors. The ceiling was peeling, the carpet stained and the room overall very tired.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was ok, hotel in general a bit dated. Had to go to reception 3 times because card key didn't work and toilet wouldn't flush in our room. Room was a good size and bed was comfy but would have liked an iron and ironing board in there. Good location for Gunwharf and historic dockyard but only about 10 parking spaces so ok if coming by train.

Clean rooms but slightly out dated. Paid for breakfast for one day but disappointing as the food trays were empty, no fried egg, no sausage, no scrambled eggs and no hash browns . Milk jug was empty, along with the jug of orange juice. Nothing was being replenished despite just taking our money. The fried eggs and hash browns were then cooked on request whilst everything else had gone cold. Good location and close to the shops and transport facilities.

We stayed during one of the hottest days in the summer, and the lack of air con detracted from our visit. The 3rd floor room was extremely hot, even hotter than outside. We we exhausted and jet lagged, so not happy. Also, our bathroom smelled of cigarette smoke, so that was unpleasant but we tolerated it. Hallway carpeting and walls need attention.

Excellent location
The hotel was overall great value for money. Excellent location, a few minutes walk from Gunwharf Quays and a nice longer walk to Portsmouth city centre. We got there early, before check-in time and they let us park our car in one of the hotel allocated spaces, which was amazing. We were originally allocated a room on the second floor, but it was right next to a really loud generator. As we stayed on one of the hottest day of the summer, there was no way we would have been able to sleep with the windows open and that noise next to our window. We were able to change room, to a room on the third floor, a bit farther from the generator (which seems to be on both sides of the hotel). There was a small fan in the room, which helped with the heat. However, the generator was still pretty loud overnight, especially when it switched itself back on at 4am. I'm sure it would not be a problem if you stayed in winter. The doors slam really loudly in the corridor too - if you are a light sleeper, this might be a problem. That aside, the room was really nice and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent! It was a buffet with everything you could think of, from cooked items (bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages, hash browns, fried bread) to yogurt granola, toast with jam, etc. Everything was replenished as it run out.
