Property was nice and staff very friendly - however they put a family with kids on the top floor above us which is a big NO! As a result with all the banging around right above till late and then starting up at 5:00AM there was not much sleeping time. Ruined our time there sadly.

The stuff was superb and the only negative thing was at the elevator had some glitches but the staff did fix it so it was not a big issue. The room was spectacular the property is very cozy quaint and amazing. The breakfast was wonderful and staff was there to assist you and we're very attentive to anything you needed. The room was spacious and comfortable and close to every activity that we were involved in that it was the best stay in Portsmouth we've ever had. We will be back! The two great rooms in front were wonderful to gather before and after going out and we met very wonderful Travelers who also stayed at the inn. I would highly recommend this Boutique Hotel as both of my stays this year and last year were fantastic! We were communicated with by phone and text and checked in on regularly. Five stars!

The King bed was probably the best bed I’ve ever slept in other than my own . Very nicely decorated and delicious breakfast included. Would definitely stay again as long as the price is reasonable.

What a lovely find! This place exceeded my expectations and my husband and I felt like we were in Europe with the complimentary breakfast spread and espresso drink machine. I was expecting a granny-style B&B but this place was pretty funky and I loved the decor touches around every corner. Would definitely stay at another Lark Hotels property!

The hotel is very brightly decorated, with dark walls and ceilings. I entered through the back guest entrance, from the parking lot, and there were no signs to indicate where to go, or where the elevator was. The staff were ok, but a bit condescending I would say. The breakfast was better than expected - included some pastries and savory items - cheese stuffed ham roll ups, and salami, cheese, lettuce and tomato skewers. There was also the typical bagels and bread, cereal and oatmeal, and a fruit salad. Everything was very clean, but my room had a cracked sink, and I believe the toilet top - buttons - were also damaged. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. Overall - ok.

What a delightful inn! We loved the cozy feel overall, our room was very comfortable, and we appreciated the breakfast and the little bar area. Plus, only a few minutes walk to town for restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay again!

Charming hotel, close to downtown, very cozy!

It was our second time staying at this hotel. We loved it, with the exception of having a room under the stairs and close to the lobby. We would definitely stay again, though!
