Staff during breakfast were very nice. Mother & daughter at front desk were very personable when we were trying to secure a ride to the port. Room had fruit flies (or something similar) even though we had no food. Access panel in wall behind toilet was open - very weird. Only one power outlet in the whole room was inconvenient.

It was shocking. We got a different room to what I booked. It was dirty, specifically dusty in which my son has a dust allergy too. Only one plug socket in the whole room, for 3 people. Will not be booking here again.

If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to pay premium prices for the authentic university halls of residence experience, look no further than the IBIS Budget Portsmouth. “Budget” appears to be merely a nostalgic nod to what your wallet might have looked like before checking in. The family room offers that special kind of intimacy where everyone gets to know each other *really* well, thanks to the bunk bed setup and bathroom situation that makes privacy a distant memory. Perfect for bonding with the kids, less ideal for business travellers. The “air conditioning” system deserves particular mention (because it's not actually aircon) - it’s a marvel of engineering that apparently takes its temperature cues from the great outdoors rather than the thermostat you’ve optimistically set to 15 degrees. At 4am, when the outside temperature drops by a whisker, this clever system decides it’s time to transform your room into a sauna. Who needs sleep when you can have a free spa experience? The mattress, credit where it’s due, was actually comfortable. The pillows, however, seemed to be auditioning for being in the bin and should probably get the part. Breakfast was a masterclass in packet-to-plate efficiency. The pastries had that special soggy quality that only comes from being thoroughly convinced they’re something they’re not - fresh. For what you pay, you’d expect more than the full student experience. Unless you’re feeling particularly nostalgic for those university days

Although breakfast had been paid for, when my colleagues went for breakfast at 6.30am there was nothing left for them to eat. One room had human excrement inside the toilet roll.

We have used this hotel more times that I can count in the past, so I'm sad to be writing this, but as no one from the hotel can respond to an email here I am. The desk staff are great, friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself looks clean and the facilities are what you'd expect of a budget hotel but it's tired and not up to the standard I'd come to expect of the place. I can live with that, it's a popular hotel and some people arent so respectful of their surroundings. However shortly after leaving I discovered what look like bed bug bites on my back and arms. I emailed the hotel to let them know and haven't even had an acknowledgement of receipt. I'd usually be happy to give somewhere another go after things being not right, but this feels like disregard of customer experience, not just mine but that of future customers.
