No frills at all. Bring your own shampoo, etc. However, clean, neat, friendly staff, easy to drive in and out. Fine for an overnight. There is coffee in the morning in the lobby. More

The motel is listed as having an outdoor pool however it's very small (only goes to 5' and is about the size of a parking spot -- 8'x20'). Motel exterior is somewhat elaborate but that feeling ends once you leave the lobby: hallways are old (yet nicely scented) and our room had a musty 'glow'. The deadbolt lock didn't work... More

I travel to Portsmouth for business several times a week and have stayed in numerous hotels in the area. This Motel 6 has the friendliest, most efficient staff of any of them! Easy as anything to check in and get to your room. Very accomodating, down to earth clerks, unlike some of the other snobby hotels in the area. Some... More

No-nonsense highway motel. The room seemed OK at arrival, but during nighttime a pump/generator or something else kept humming at a level keeping you half awake. We stayed at 2nd floor at the far end from the elevator - maybe it's better at the other end? More

Firstly, we had to ask to have our non-smoking room changed to another non-smoking room because the first smelled like...you guessed it smoke. The other room still smelled like cigarette but wasn't as bad. But hey it was just a one night stay but then I laid down on the bed and all I could feel we're the springs. I... More

Bed Bugs! Bed Bugs! Bed Bugs! Room and bath appeared clean and recently refurbrished. Quite basic, but what do you expect for the low price, and they take dogs. We checked out in the morning and began the drive home when both my wife and I felt itching sensations. We wondered aloud if it might be bed bugs. By the... More

This is one of our regular stopping locations when travelling south on the 1-95. It is in a great location near the highway, shopping center, and eating establishments. Over the past year, the hotel appears to be improving - service and overall appearance. We will continue to go back. More

We stayed here with friends for three nights and were very pleased with everything. We stayed here five years ago and had been impressed with this motel then. When we checked in it was very busy but the desk clerk dealt with everyone very quickly and was very helpful and friendly. The room for our friends was too noisy for... More

I can't speak highly enough of the staff and their attitude toward serving their customers. I am disabled and work with a service dog; they were very attentive and cooperative to and with both of us at every turn, even changing our room to one that served our purpose and needs when it turned up vacant :) thanks to all...
