Positive Reviews
positive:
Well-maintained and hygienic.
Everything from the linens to the bathrooms are kept clean and professional, allowing you a comfortable and pleasant experience in your room. The staff is also diligent about keeping the general state of the room well-stocked and tidy.
positive:
A perfect base of operations.
Because Americas Best Inn Portsmouth is so close to Maine and New Hampshire's best beach locations, you won't need to seek alternate transportation to reach the sands and waters. You'll be able to absorb as much history and seaside culture as you desire at any surrounding hotspot.
positive:
Personable staff.
The staff responsible for cleaning and servicing your rooms is highly professional and kind, and will help you to acquire any essential items or amenities to improve to your stay. The help desk is also a fantastic source of information about the area.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Undersized dining space.
While the hotel does offer a breakfast for its guests, one of its main issues is the lack of space for diners. You'll have to eat in cramped quarters or carry your food back to your room, if the hotel happens to be overly-booked that day.
negative:
Smoke odors.
If you have asthma or are sensitive to smoke, you may want to be extra careful when booking. Numerous rooms, even if reported to be non-smoking, contained traces of smoke odors or were unsuitable for guests due to their smell, particularly in the fabrics.
negative:
Dated construction.
In addition to some tired decor and design choices, you may be inconvenienced by the sound of nearby guests or outdoor traffic, since the walls are too thin for the building. Try to book yourself away from the main highway, or bring along noise canceling headphones.
