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

Late check in instructions costed! Text by the owner was inconsiderate and made us feel UNWELCOME.This house was unsafe! NOT WORTH THE COST!!! Buldging pealing and cracked walls and ceilings, insufficient outlets, uneven floors and walls, and structure; doors did not close, dirty worn sofas, insufficient kitchen supplies, old rough towels, tiny toilet, intermittent air conditioner in living room, fear of collapsing holes in the balcony floor, worn dirty porch furniture, wobbly banister on steep cement stairs, limited parking in front, blinds broken and set too high to reach, windows lacked privacy, beds were hard, linen and pillows were cheap, bug bit me the last night. Over 20 stairs to climb to a major disappointment. Washer , dryer and water pressure were the best features.

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.

The apartment was charming; however, it could use some updating. The location was excellent, quiet, and easy access to local stores and restaurants. Ideal for a short stay.

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.

Old house, fabulous location

We really liked Olde Town; the location was great, and close to the seawall and lots of historical buildings. The house itself was old and seemed a bit run-down (not everything worked), but the owners were responsive to addressing urgent concerns, and the price was good.

Charming Place to Stay, Great Location!

We enjoyed our stay. It was centrally located to Portsmouth Downtown and our Activities. Great Neighborhood with lots of history. Apartment is located upstairs with stairs, and had some dust bunnies, but overall clean. Thanks for the treats. Yes, we would book again.
