It was central to Southsea and only a 20 minute walk from the seafront or 10 minutes to the shops.

Not sure this should be described as a hotel or guest house. Felt a bit like a hostel

Accommodation met with approval, Southsea appears to be an expensive area in which to stay
John, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The bedding, and ensuite were clean, and fresh. The bed itself, was two single mattresses on a double base, with a double topper on top. Springs were poking through in places. Furniture in the room, was worn, wobbly, and seemed to have melted wax in every drawer. There was a bright green emergency light in the ceiling that was permanently on, and lit the room up at night. I knew in advance that I would have to pay £15 per day for parking, but after not seeing anybody on arrival, and no clear signage available, I couldn't find reception, or staff members. I did however, receive a phone call after 8.30 p.m. whilst eating out, telling me to pay £30 immediately, by card, cash, or bank transfer. I then didn't receive payment details quickly, so rushed back to pay. I found a letter, stuck to my windscreen, which left strips of glue on my window, when I took it off. I paid my £30 to a staff member, which were plentiful, at 10 p.m. The curtains didn't fit the windows, they were hanging down at 1 end, and tied together, so didn't open properly either. staff kept walking past the windows in the mornings, so privacy didn't seem important. The radiator cover was bent upwards. The wardrobe was doorless, and wedged into place with a bit of old wood. The shower curtain was 4 inches short of the floor, meaning the bathroom floor was wet and slippery, even though they kindly left a towel on the floor for us. The sink plug didn't fit properly, so water drained out quickly. Won't return.

6/10 Okay

The hotel was decent. However it wasn't quite obvious to find and I would recommend getting sign put up on the building or outside. Also having more available parking for overnight stays!
Benjamin, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Property and facilities needs to be update. My family and I had issues with bedbugs bites. However the staff were polite and helpful.
Samantha, 13-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Scott & Galina's lovely break

The apartment was clean and exactly what we was looking for as it was just a base for us to sleep and shower. The staff are friendly, unfortunately parking is not free and is quite expensive and they say there is parking in the area, unfortunately southsea/Portsmouth is on the ball with parking and is mostly only available for locals with a parking permits. If you like pubs,bars and restaurants you are in the right area as there are loads around. Yes i would stay there again.

We left a day early due to not enjoying our stay and the staff charged us extra for parking and took a waiver fee, very disappointing.

Ok stay, hotel and rooms need some tlc especially re carpets. No fridge in room. Signage on building indicating it would be useful. Not in a great location area is tired and run-down.
Gregory, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Rubbish bed and no hot water

For the price you do not expect a great deal but you do expect a comfortable bed. Mine the springs were shot and camping would have been more comfortable plus i was forced to take a cold shower as there was no hot water. Being able to park was s big plus
Raymond, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Not a family hotel.

Not as advertised. Advertised as 1 double, 1 single bed, not the case. The room comes with a very small (I'm 5' 6" and didn't fit on it) bed settee. Very noisy, comings and goings all through the night. Not the best idea to put the "family" room next to the front door. No shelf to put toiletries on.
Nicholas, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Get what you pay for. Thin walls, I could hear receiption next to me.

Not good, the place needs a good clean and decoration, had to pay £20 deposit,have not had it back yet.kids screeming in the morning
Anthony, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Okay for the price

Room was a little tired but overall okay. Minor issues like ripped wallpaper etc. My only issue was the fact the latch was slightly damaged on the inside so I had no way to properly lock the door. I had to put the chain on and shove a doorstop under the door, as a solo female traveller this made me a little uncomfortable. Walls are very thin so be aware if you’re a light sleeper. I think overall the hotel was okay for the price. You should also note that it seems the hotel staff will go in your room while you are out. No one made me aware that this would happen and I only knew someone had been in as more toilet roll appeared after I had been out for the day. I thought it was a little strange that I had not been told that someone would be going in my room while I was out as I may not have wanted someone going in my room.

Not great!

I’m a nurse, started to work in the local hospital ( Queen Alexandra Hospital) my partner come from Portugal as we decided to stay here. We wanted to know the city, houses prices etc. I’m renting at the moment a bedroom in a friends house, but because we wanted some privacy, I decided to book a hotel near my friends house in Southsea, for us to get to know the area. Southsea Inn ( the Inn doesn’t apply to the place to be honest) was, and is, one of the worst places I ever stayed. The room is dated, with wall paper ripped and coming from the walls, cheap furniture, dirty and old carpets, the mattress have some broken springs what makes it really uncomfortable, there’s no spoons etc. The other guests were people that as far I understood, are staying for a while and by the looks of it, are people that is homeless or need some kind of help. Nothing against that, but they shouldn’t mix normal guests with other kind of guests. The rooms are with no sound protection, what means that you hear everything from the outside and vice versa. In a positive not the owners are very polite.

6/10 Okay

In realtà più che in albergo è una casa, in cui questi signori molto cortesi affittano le stanze. La camera a quattro letti, e meno male dato che il primo aveva le molle che uscivano dal materasso… il bagno piccolo ma pulito. Si parcheggia comodamente in strada a pochi passi.
I letti…
La doccia di dimensioni più che accettabili
