First the good: the place was clean the rep there assisted my mother with coming up the stairs and she provided a lot of other information shower pressure was excellentThe bad: my mother had to be escorted up the stairs because it was not advertised that you would have to go upstairs if you had units 3 or 4. The stairs, more than 20 steps are steep. the hallway, bathroom, and rooms are small I would recommend this place if you are staying one night and you are single. We stayed one night.

Host was very responsive with communication. We were starving after a long trip and pleasantly surprised to find a frozen pizza and someCrackers and hummus in the fridge! The property is historically older. Some updates decor and repair is needed but not necessary for our stay. The neighbors in the building are close and we were slightly annoyed with the barking of close by pets first thing in the morning. Overall a 4/5

Historic District is the best

We loved the area. We loved having access (just a few blocks) to the ferry to go into Norfolk. The unit was just what we wanted: quiet, plenty of room for us with two bedrooms. Kitchen had all we needed. Loved the outside veranda especially in the morning.

Perfect quiet location

Me and a friend were in town for a concert and decided to arrive the night before and leave the next of the event, this house was perfect and had so much character to it, being in the historic part of Portsmouth, we knew exactly what to expect! If we ever go back that away, we will definitely rent it again.
