We enjoyed the Downtown Escape in Portsmouth. The cleanliness and comfort in addition to the ease of check in/out with our host Darryl. We were conveniently located to all that Portsmouth has to offer from the beautiful seaport to the many fine restaurants and shops. Portsmouth is a walkable city with much to see and do and we easily got our exercise in outdoors with the beautiful summer-like weather we had in October. We felt very safe and comfortable here and the locals were very open and friendly. We would highly recommend this place to stay and visit Portsmouth.

A little piece of Paradise in New England

I traveled to Portsmouth with my adult daughter for some much needed girl time. This property was in the perfect location in beautiful Portsmouth. The apartment is lovely and the beds very comfortable. The host was amazing and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. I will definitely stay here during my next visit to Portsmouth.

Great Stay!

Great stay! Location couldn't have been better. We had everything we needed & as advertised. The deck was a bonus. It was great to relax out there after walking around all day. We dropped out bags off first and then parked in the free lot which was just a few minutes walk away. Definitely would stay here again the next time we visit.

My cousin and I enjoyed a girls' weekend in Portsmouth. The property was within a mile of all the spots we wanted to check out, and the condo was appointed with nice furniture and art, upscale appliances, and some extra treats! The owner was friendly, helpful, and communicative, and he went out of his way to offer tips and suggestions for our stay!

Lovely Stay

Our stay in the Downtown Escape was perfect! After a 7-hour drive, we were delighted to see how clean, cozy, and well equipped our accommodations were. The location was perfect, upstairs from a fantastic coffee shop and within walking distance of all the sights and sounds Downtown Portsmouth has to offer. I am so glad we chose to stay here.

I enjoyed a weekend away here with a few girlfriends and we were beyond impressed with this property! We immediately noticed how clean it was upon check-in. It looks even better than the pictures and the location is walkable to numerous shops and restaurants. An added bonus was enjoying coffee at the cafe that was right below us. I can’t say enough good things about our weekend here and I would absolutely stay here again!
