The inn certainly has its charming aspects and quaint ambience. With that said, the property is completely unstaffed which presents its share of challenges. During check in, it was a bit later and I called the number provided to inquire about parking. After being connected and explained the inquiry, the first response the staff replied with was “did you read the email, it has the instructions for parking”. Once parked, upon entering the room, we discovered it was cold so we attempted to turn on the radiator. After unsuccessful attempts I called the help number again, and the response was again, “please read the instruction manuals, it has information on the heating system.” Upon reading the manual, it only contained info on a mini split system but did not contain information on the radiator. Upon reflecting this to the help line, I received a text to turn the dial left, then right, then I was asked to go to the basement to turn up the thermostat for the common area. Upon following the instructions and still being unsuccessful I simply asked if there was an onsite staff maintenance person given the radiator was broken and unfortunately there was not. To be fair, I was offered another room downstairs after numerous tries instead of offering to send a technician to diagnosis the problem as typical in hospitality. Overall, the property wasn’t forward about the property being unattended and it presented challenges. The last thing is there were was no breakfast for an inn.

Better off at a real inn
We have stayed in hotels motels AIRBNB VRBO and inns. I am not sure what this is. It is not an inn. Inns are generally establishments or buildings where travelers can seek lodging and often, food and drink. This seemed to be a collection of buildings offering rooms only. There is no inn keeper per se. I naively knocked on the entry door to enter. Needed a code ! Seems it was texted to me. And guess what: one's code is invalidated at the 10:00 checkout time. Ten AM is the earliest checkout I have ever encountered. Of course we received no maid service between the days of our stay. Why would anyone expect that ? There were ample recommendations to tip. Tip who ? At some point breakfast was once provided. No more. Why ? Covid. Room was clean. Entryway carpet filthy. One might be better to stay at a real inn.. Someone invested a lot of money in this place. Good luck.

I have stayed here many times, going back to when it was a B&B and now in its contemporary form. It's a great location, convenient to downtown Portsmouth and easy parking. The rooms have been nicely refurbished in a minimalist way -- they are comfortable and well appointed. During my last stay, the outlet in the bathroom and the lighted mirror went out; I texted the contact number, an electrician did something, but they still didn't work. No big deal -- there's plenty of light in the bathroom and many other outlets to use, so I didn't really care (plus I get 'old house electrical' : ) ) But I do miss being able to talk face-to-face with a human about little things that go awry. , and I miss that the room is not serviced daily. I'd stay here again, though, anytime.

We stayed two nights in the Cathedral Room. It was wonderful. It looked exactly like the photos. The room was large and clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We enjoyed having wine and cheese that we brought with us in the lovely garden space. The bathroom was large and stocked with spa-like shampoos etc, a blow dryer and steamer. We are avid AirBnB users and this reminded us of that. Self check in was easy. The stairs that some complained about didn’t seem crazy to us. There is a large mini fridge, small coffee maker and an ice maker. There were mugs, cups, waters, coffee and creamers. The AC was on before we arrived and the room was cool during a very humid few days.

The inn was quite lovely. Nice accommodation and beautiful garden. Great location near the downtown. The only negative was wifi. The connection is unstable and not dependable - we had to use our Hotspot. With good wifi, it would be a stellar property.

Great stay for our 2 night visit to the area. We had a car so it was easy to see the sights in and around Portsmouth. It was a bit rainy so we did not get to enjoy the beautiful backyard, fire pit and pretty garden area. The place was immaculate and tastefully decorated. A fun time was had. A microwave might have been nice to have for left overs.

Perfect space to choose for exploring Portsmouth. Facility was super cute and very clean. It was a little noisy in the morning, from outside the building as well as inside from the hall. Nothing extreme, so we weren't too bothered.

I liked the level of communication throughout. My wife and I were very pleased with our room. Plenty of space and the amenities were great. The little enclosed porch would have been awesome in warmer weather. We'll have to come and try it.

Fab location and oh-so-comfortable room
This accommodation was very clean, comfortable, and lovely. The location could not be better if you don't mind a few minute walk to the waterfront. We loved being a tad out of the touristy hubub, but still super convenient. Parking was easy and free. The gardens are gorgeous especially for being in the city: would have loved to sit by the fire pit, but we were just too busy to lounge. Lots to do and see. The freshly renovated room was lovely, including robes and slippers, and feather duvet. Bed was comfy. Furnishings are transitional--not old/stuffy but not too modern either: just right, clean and bright. When booking, I was worried about noise, but I didn't hear a peep from any other room even though I was told they were fully booked. Coffee maker could have been larger, but fridge was stocked with water. The brand new minisplit heat/ac seemed to have a mind of its own, but we stayed comfortable. Our room had a massive bathroom, and a vestibule entry. We had a wonderful time, highly recommend this Inn, and will return next time we are in Portsmouth!

Contactless check in is not my favorite. A bit of confusion around it. Street dug up on way to property. A heads up would have been appreciated. Room well appointed if a bit sterile, very clean; comfy bed, good lighting. Quiet. Nice garden adjoining property.
