This hotel staff takes a lot of pride in creating a "home away from home". It is very clean, nice décor, comfortable bedding, nice rooms/bathrooms, delicious hot breakfast too. We will use that as our "go to" hotel when we have reason to come back to this area. The cost is competitive to all like quality or even lesser quality... More

The hotel was average for the area. The room I reserved was very big with a kitchen area, which was handy since we had a two year old. The room was clean, but a little ran down. The breakfast area was too small to comfortably eat. I would stay here again. The area is limited to a few hotels.

Thank you for the reviews that we have received regarding our hotel. In the Portsmouth Ohio area there are few hotels. Some hotels are at the low end of the hotel chains and we have a few at the higher end of hotel chains. We appreciate all our travelers business and pleasure and we want to treat all our guests...

First time staying in Portsmouth. So I don't have any other options to compare in this review. But I do travel frequently and this is a very average property. A little dated on the amenities and furnishings. Nothing special to comment on. Shower had poor water pressure. Clear signs of age everywhere. Bed was not very comfortable. Service was okay.... More

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to write a review on our hotel. I'm sorry you experienced some difficulties while here in the area.

Great staff. Everybody was friendly, the rooms were clean, our king bed was very comfortable and we really liked the sheets. Definitely the best place we've stayed in Portsmouth. They have a small indoor pool and workout area which we did not use. Their breakfast is very good for a free hotel breakfast- best gravy I've had at any hotel... More

Made the reservation with hesitation and anxiety increased driving up the hill to the hotel. That all went away on walking into the lobby and the greeting from staff. Prompt check-in and good hotel information provided. Nothing fancy, nothing shiny but it was functional and clean. The breakfast tasted better than it looked. Not a fan of the round egg... More

We are currently on a looooooong move, cross country, with 2 cats and a baby.

We appreciate all our guest included the 4 legged variety. Being close to a highway it is really a concern if one of the pets were roaming out doors. The entire staff work hard at their jobs and appreciate all compliments. We look forward to the winter events in the area such as "The Dickens of a Christmas". More

We stayed two nights in early August. This hotel is located a little ways out, it took a good five minutes to drive into town. The entry area is not very inviting, I thought at first that it was just a temporary desk due to renovation or something. The check-in staff was not terribly friendly when we arrived around 10pm....

Between the holiday inn and the comfort inn we chose the comfort because the price was reasonable and they had a continental breakfast that we didn't have a additional price to pay.

I originally booked a room at the Holiday Inn butt decided to switch to the Comfort Inn because it was half the price. The hallway smelled like smoke as someone else stated in their review. The smell stopped at the room door. The room was clean and we were pleasantly surprised with a jacuzzi tub in our king size room.... More
