Bed bugs with a nice pool

We got bit by BED BUGS which completely ruined the stay for me. This is very is very disappointing since it’s $200+ a night. I had to leave two personal pillows and a nice blanket because I didn’t want to bring bugs home. The bed was comfy. The standard bathroom is very small. The pool was great; it is 3-6ft deep. Temperature well regulated. Did not smell c like chlorine! They had great ventilation in the pool area. No hot tub. Take your own swim towels. The swim towels provided are the size of hand towels.

This location is in need of a bit of updating. There is only one VERY tiny elevator. Our room was not very clean upon our arrival and the air conditioner stopped working halfway through our stay. The staff working that particular day were very helpful, but other staff members on different occasions were less than kind and even sarcastic. The pool area is the nicest part of this hotel. Overall, I would stay here again but only because it is far better than any of the other options in Portsmouth. If they updated their facilities, this could easily be a 4 star stay.
