We enjoyed the space. The stairs to the space a bit steeper than we’re used to but would have been no problem if lighting was better there. The space is in a fabulous location. We were able to get to so much within walking distance! The bed was comfy. It was great to have the w/d combo. (Someone may want to check the balance on that- loud heavy vibrations during spin)Overall a great place but retired/seniors beware the steep stairs and the high step into and out of the shower.

I would give the property 4 1/2 stars - very clean, lots of accoutrements for cooking, comfortable bed and bathroom. Great location for two people looking to explore downtown Portsmouth - literally on one of the main streets adjacent to the waterfront, and one to two blocks from all the shops and restaurants you could desire. My wife and I had a great time exploring Portsmouth (lots of history, including large houses where historical figures lived or stayed during revolutionary times).The only reason to subtract 1/2 star was the parking situation. Street parking was available if you got up early enough, but between 9am and 8pm there are significant charges for parking on the streets. The parking garages also required between 30 and 40/ day if the car was left there (each had hourly charges that accrued during the night), so there will be some added expense to account for with this property. Other than that, the apartment was great for a single couple - not sure you could have many more than two people. And be a bit careful on the stairs from the street to the first level - they are a bit dark (not the host's fault) and they are narrow; my wife and I (both in 60s) made sure to hang on to the hand rails whenever going up or down. All in all, we would recommend this to a couple looking to vacation in Portsmouth, with the slight caveats mentioned above.

11 night stay… 1 great time!

We had a great time in Portsmouth over the 4th of July. The condo was cozy, very clean, well appointed, and very comfortable for the two of us. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with everything we needed. The location was great - close to everything yet on a quiet part of Market St. Our only wish was that was more storage space for our clothes. But overall, we’d highly recommend this rental!

You couldn’t ask for a better VRBO experience. Perfectly located next to all the shopping and restaurants. Steps away from waterfront dining. I would definitely use again when back in Portsmouth.

Back to UNH Winter Celebration

Had a couple itinerary changes and Todd was super accommodating about the changes. He had some good tips about what to do while we were there. Location is great, short walk to restaurants and shops, hope to return when we are able to stay longer. First experience with beautiful Portamouth, won't be the last! In fact we arw back in Portsmouth as I write this.

We visited Portsmouth for a family wedding and couldn’t have found a more perfect place to stay. Beautiful property right smack dab in the middle of everything the city has to offer. We did take advantage of another review which mentioned Parrot Avenue free parking which was a quick walk away.

Great litte spot in Portsmouth

My husband and I stayed here while we had our wedding in Portsmouth a few weeks ago since we were looking for something a little bigger and suite-like than what the hotels offered. Place was perfect for just the two of us, with easy access to the heart of Portsmouth and the parking garage. No issues with noise from the street and while there are stairs up to the apartment, I didn't think they were too difficult to navigate. Todd was very quick to respond with any questions we had. Would certainly stay there again!

Great location and very nice place. Drawback was the stairs at the entry and very very small living area. Great for a couple. I’d stay there again but felt the price was a bit high. Super nice owner.
