5-Stars for staff friendliness3-Stars for quality of breakfast5-Stars for room cleanliness — clearly the room has been updated

it was clean and very usable!5-Stars for privacy — the cabin/bldg we stayed in was physically separate from others with space between buildings — this added to sound isolation sweet!Bonus points for handicap access — not sure why there was a fan mounted on the wall aimed at the bed, since the room had its own air conditioning unit but it had a string to operate it so it could be operated from low — I’m guessing for handicap accessibility nice touch!So why the 2-stars overall? We put highest weight on a good night’s sleep when we travel And sadly, we didn’t get that1-Star bed comfort — although the bed was very nicely made up, it was *horribly* springy and the mattress felt very very old We both woke up with pains in our lower backs, something I haven’t felt since our own mattresses had once aged and stopped providing any reasonable support2-Star darkness — although the rear window had a blackout shade, the front-facing one only had blinds and thin sheer — light from outside illuminated the room through the night, noticeably brighter in the morning too The room needs a blackout shade in front2-star smell — although the room appeared *very* clean (excellent!), it smelled musty nonetheless I don’t know what can be done about that, but we both noticed it immediately upon enteringSo there it is — I’d love to have given it an overall higher rating, but with such a poor night’s sleep we just couldn’t do so Probably more like a 25 out of 5, but that isn’t an option here

Lovely, homey, comfortable small town motel with friendly staff at better than average prices Nicely appointed rooms with heat, A/C, two TV’s, fan, toaster oven, microwave, stove top, and fridge plus cookware and utensils Great for overnight or longer stays

Breakfast was definitely more than Continental and quite tasty! Included in price Stayed there to see Adam Hawley at the Jimmy’s Jazz club in nearby Portsmouth Would go back Highly recommended

I’ve been spending weekends at this Inn for a little while now I live with 6 other people and need some time to myself occasionally and so far have been extremely pleased with the accommodations as well as the staff Unfortunately yesterday my experience was not so great

The manager was on duty at the desk and booked my room Ground floor, which I don’t like but was too tired to ask him to change it as he was handing me the already activated keys and I just wanted to get some sleep To my great disappointment, when I got into my room, it was a room for someone with special needs The bathroom was enormous but with nothing in it Assistance bars all over the walls, no counter space whatsoever except just enough to surround the sink My feet didn’t even touch the floor when I used the commode The bar in the closet was about 2 1/2 feet off the floor so my clothes were touching the ground The bed felt like this mattress had been there for quite some time and the rugs were worn I mentioned to the manager that I didn’t like the room and his response was “Really?” That’s it Really In my experience it’s procedure to inform the guest if you can only offer a room other than what they are requesting I’m sure it would be a great room, excepting the mattress, for someone in a wheelchair, but I am not, and now I am not comfortable renting here as I believe the management has no interest in pleasing the guest, only in getting as many rooms filled as possible in any way he can I’d also like to add that I’ve never had a problem with any other desk clerk They are all very pleasant and willing to accommodate I’ve only had one other complaint when staying there and was immediately offered another room But as I was able to fix the problem myself, I didn’t take it But it was nice to be given the option I would never had accepted the room I stayed in last night, had I been informed before checking in Sadly, I’ll be looking for something else for my weekends in the future Although I enjoyed most of my stays, I feel that if management doesn’t care about the guests comfort, there can only be more problems in the future

Everything was good My only issues were 1) the hotelscom listing was wrong about everything (check out time plus there is no pool here), and the maid was rude when I was on my way out the door at 11:03 (check out is 11:00, she didn’t care that my confirmation email said 12:00)

Pretty much the only hotel is Durham, though, so not horribly priced considered they effectively have a monopoly

Sarah Landgraf

The front desk staff charged my credit card while I was filling out a form that they asked me to fill out with my car information When I turned around the guy was swiping my credit card through the machine without even so much as asking me or informing that they were charging me for the entire cost of the room after it was booked (and presumably paid for) under my mothers name/ her card!! When I inquired if they had simply run the card for incidentals, they informed me they had run the card for the entire cost of the room Since it was my understanding the room was already paid for, they informed me that they only could have run the card that was used at booking with written authorization from the cardholder which they offered to email my mother

I have never run across this policy prior to this and I am definitely not impressed with this experience Perhaps, it is purely out of principal that you inform the customer of the charge prior to running their card In conclusion, customer service here is shameful and to future customers: don’t give them your credit card without knowing what they will charge to it when they swipe it through the card reader behind your back

Ended up at Hampton Inn Kittery for over 3-weeks on business While hotels are typically not ideal long-term, I could have asked for a better experience Location is perfect, within walking distance of the Outlet Mall, eateries, the highway

The shipyard and downtown Portsmouth are minutes away The staff is amazing—friendly and professional The pool and state of the art fitness center are a bonus Decent continental breakfast Hot and cold options Nice sized rooms with desk and small kitchen area (minus a stove)

Kris Tangen

For the cost of the room I felt like the Hampton Inn Kittery was good value!The good: the bed was comfortable, the cost of the room wasn’t bad for a king suite (under 200 a night), the hotel provides a free breakfast every morning which had a lot of unique options it wasn’t a continental it was an actual breakfast and the quality of the food wasn’t awful which you kind of expect it to be for a free breakfast, the location of the hotel was perfect for the beach, for visiting Portsmouth, for visiting York, etc the staff were friendly, helpful, and did an excellent jobThe less than stellar: the room smelled like mildew, the bathroom toilet did not flush fully so you had to flush twice regardless of what was occupying the bowl The pool smelled of mildew

We were walked in on by cleaning staff who thought the room was empty which I don’t hold against the cleaning staff but I was worried that they ended our reservation early because the staff only clean by request or when your room is emptyOverall I would recommend this place if you’re in Maine looking for a good location and good value, not without its faults but for the cost it got the job done!

Penny-Ellen Terr

I have worked in the hospitality industry for decades and seen it all when staying at hotels Seriously, I have many stories, but I have to say my stay at the Kittery Hampton Inn & Suites was beyond exceptional What made it so great? The General Manager, Reid, and the AGM, Justin

Both gentleman went out of their way to make my 2-week stay pleasurable They greeted me each morning by name and always asked if I needed anything Even the housekeeper asked to carry my breakfast try to my room one morning Seriously nice people who strive to accommodate! The hotel is immaculate, the location is in walking distance to restaurants & shopping, and the breakfast (which is include) was unique and delightful They also have a huge front lawn to walk your dog The management at this property definitely goes the extra mile, so many thanks This was my first stay at this property- but whenever I am in the area it will be my hotel of choice Hats off the Reid & Justin!!

My wife and I just stayed for the first time for our anniversary weekend We were on the 3rd floor It truly was an ocean view

Beautiful private deck The room was just right Basic amenities and very clean If you’re expecting a huge television, living room furniture, or full kitchen, you may be disappointed We had a king size bed that was very comfortable The kitchenette was nice Besides, if you’re that close to the ocean, you don’t need all the frills in the room We were out every day except to sit on the deck at night and to sleep The only thing that would have made it easier is if there was an elevator The staff was extremely friendly and helpful We’ll definitely be back again!

Hotel wasn’t so bad somewhat clean besides the cobwebs and dead bugs under the bed just lack of housekeeping I suppose or needs a spring cleaning I feel bad for a girl that was there I feel like they targeted her or two young kids that lived above her that she knew one of them got arrested so they asked her to leave I’m claiming that she had lots of traffic and if they did pay attention then realized they were three other rooms selling narcotics there is a brother inappropriate maintenance man I believe have quite a rude mouth on me has a black beard as they sit out back of the house and smoke marijuana I understand it’s legal now in the state of Maine but that doesn’t mean it’s right to smoke all day and push on the guest at this fine establishment I stayed here last year for almost a month and it was beautiful peaceful it was nice I think it’s time that the owners hire new management I used to come here with my grandmother everyday she used to do housekeeping and laundry for 15 years or so this place is wonderful I loved it and unfortunately some of the employees has brought this place down a few notches maybe they just need to get a wake-up call about things that aren’t getting done like the rum I’m in has no cold water in the sink or in the shower the heater does not go above 64 degrees which is okay please don’t read my review and run away this place was a wonderful place I hope when I come back next year to visit with my grandmother things are back to how they used to be it was a shame to see how much this place at Bonaparte and just a year I will be back though I hope this is red as positive criticism indeed Rome will just be gone through as well as employees shall be spoken with about taking pride in their job I know there’s plenty of people looking for work if you don’t like your job go somewhere else correct or incorrect

I stayed at the Garrison for 8 days for work From Jamie and her colleagues at the front desk, who consistently went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and had everything I needed, to the amazing landscaper I never met but whose beautiful flowers, lively bird-feeders, and hotel-replica handmade birdhouse I admire, this place was a perfect place to spend the week for work In spite of the hotel apparently being totally full while I was there, and also serving canine guests, my room was **so quiet**

It was amazing liked it so much I’ll be stopping there next weekend (assuming I can get a room for us) on our family road trip next weekend

Angel Earth

This is a nice hotel located right next to/behind Dunkin Donuts and CVS I had the ‘Efficiency Room’ with a King size bed It was a quite and pleasant stay for me which is what I wanted

I gave 4 stars due to there being a narrow shower stall instead of a bathtub and also that the bed was a bit too soft as it felt like your back is sinking into the bed Otherwise, they have good amenities, a decent breakfast and is in a convenient location

Rachel Hansen

I would give this review a negative 5 if I could We booked a room and then canceled it immediately We were charged almost $400 for a “no show

” When we called they refused to give us a refund and told us, “they could have sold the room 20 times over that night” and “it wasn’t there issue” Now when we try to call they screen our phone calls and do not answer The one time I got through and spoke to Kathy, she told me that the hotel manager Tanya wasn’t available and that she would call me back Of course, Tanya never called back When I asked when she would be available Kathy said, “Oh you know, it is just so hard to tell with her I don’t know” Clearly they are avoiding us So very difficult to give a review on a hotel room that we never actually stayed in and were charged full price EXTREMELY disappointed in their customer service When I tried to explain our situation, it was clear they had zero empathy They are just a money hungry company who can care less about their customers

My husband and I booked the Double Tree by Hilton for our wedding block for our October 2021 wedding We also hosted an “after reception bash” in their Penstock Room and a “farewell breakfast” in the Three Rivers Ballroom The hotel is beautiful, is in a convenient location near many restaurants, and was affordable for our guests! Staff were extremely responsive throughout the planning process, and everything turned out great! They were extremely helpful and offered recommendations when needed (such as when we had to move the breakfast to a different location within the hotel due to the number of anticipated guests)

They were able to make sure our guests got the welcome favors we prepared when they checked into the hotel The bartenders were all great as well! The food at the breakfast was delicious, and they were able to accommodate various food allergies We were incredibly happy with everything, and our guests had a wonderful experience at the hotel celebrating our wedding that weekend! And of course – the cookies when you check in are always a plus! 😊

Sarah Davenport

There is a significant lack of amenities for a hotel at this price point Breakfast is $15 per person for a standard continental breakfast that would be free at other hotels Rooms do not have any microwaves

Bathrooms do not have fans EtcWe asked for a cot for an additional person, and the mattress was so thin that every individual spring could be felt It was also very difficult to move furniture in order to accommodate the cotThe reason I’ve given two stars is that the staff here are lovely and work very hard to do what they can We were able to obtain additional bedding to try and pad the thin mattress We got a box fan from the front desk to dry out the bathroom EtcI would not recommend staying at this hotel, even for the convenience of the conference center Too much is missing

Natasha Simeon-St.Denis

We had absolutely no complaints with Doubletree Manchester We loved everything about our stay The hotel was beautiful, clean and centrally located

The rooms were updated, spacious and clean The staff, fantastic The absolute best part of our stay was Diana at the front desk She is so awesome! I honestly wish she was the person checking me in anywhere I travel, just always Diana!!!!

We came down from Maine for high tea, and our meal was *completely* worth the drive We placed a reservation on Open Table, which I’m glad we did, as the tea parlor was busy even in the off-season The food, tea, service, and atmosphere were all just exemplary

The building is an immaculately maintained historical house full of beautiful details, fixtures, and furniture from the past Cindy made our celebration very special We highly recommend Silver Fountain for dining

Charlie Zizza

This is a beautiful and historic place to stay I spent a lot of time just looking around and enjoying the details Each room is decorated in it own style which I appreciate

The breakfast and tea are great and the owners are friendly and clearly care a lot about the place Dover is a fantastic town with a lot to do for its size (restaurants, bars, shops, history, etc) and the downtown is easily walkable from Silver Fountain Inn

Tracey Downs

We went to the Silver Fountain Inn for our first murder mystery experience We had a group of 13 people, ranging in age from 21 to 78, and EVERYONE had a blast!!! The Inn is absolutely gorgeous, the rooms were all so unique and cozy and the food was delish! Pam and Jim, the owners; went out of there way to make sure everyone had a great time We all cannot wait to go back

I highly recommend staying here for any reason, not just for the murder mystery weekendBut if that’s your thing … then suspense and drama await you 😁 !

Hope they bring some variety back The staff is always willing to help Wednesday eve social has free snack, beer and wine The pool and hot tub is always clean and welcoming And the Margaritas right across is a great added bonus It is proximal to the city, hospital and the highway Highly reccomended

A unique experience in this out-of-the-way hotel While everything on the surface seemed to be good, there were a few notable, interesting things The staff and service seem to be top notch

The continental breakfast was as you would expect it to be, small items to eat, without much fanfare The thing that got us was the fact that when we entered our suite, we were greeted with a heavily stained carpet Seeing as we were not at the beach, or someplace where this would be normal, it threw red flags as to how the room would be But the room turned out to be pretty fantastic With separate bedrooms, each with their own bathrooms, it was perfect for our large family The only other semi-complaint would be the inundating smell of chlorine bleach when you first enter the main lobby (not a bad thing, per se, since it denotes cleanliness) But the lack of other smells commonly associated with hotels nowadays (weed, mold, mildew, etc) was a pleasant surprise The elevator was a bit rickety, especially for family members that have phobias in them But the rate of speed was highly-respectable The flow of water to the showers was great, but the temperature could use tweaking on the fourth floor The staff were ubër-friendly, including a kind woman at the breakfast offering chocolate chips for our waffles, or the front desk woman who was kind to greet us when we would come downstairs The breakfast area was very clean and tidy; well-maintained But that stain remained the downfall of the adventure for my wife and daughter I would give it a solid 47 stars, but cannot go the full 5, although I gave it 5 for the overall (Also, a HUGE bonus was being right next to a Mexican restaurant — Margaritas — with easy access to and from, but that’s not really a thing to hitch or kick a review)

Feedback From Real Customers

Florence Reed

We loved that our family could spread out in a suite of two rooms, one with a queen bed, and another with two doubles plus fridge, microwave, desk, chair and counter We don’t mind sharing a bathroom so appreciated not having to pay for two whole rooms and just a bit extra for the suite It was also very convenient to be able to charge electric vehicle overnight for a small additional charge

Our room was never cleaned during the three nights we stayed, which wasn’t a problem for us, but some people might not like it The breakfast wasn’t great, but we didn’t expect that for the price We will probably stay here again

David MacLeod

I was very pleased with this motel The service was courteous and efficient Very friendly and helpful owners

This is why a motel owned and operated are superior to big Franchise I was travelling from Southwest Florida which I have done for several years I must say the BEST motel I stayed in Room was very comfortable and TV selection was great Location was near I95 and close to Gas and restaurants

Joshua Bryant

The Port Inn was good Not amazing, but certainly not bad either The room was a mixture of the outdated and updated

There was also a bit of a smell in there that we couldn’t quite track down However, the room was overall clean and the staff was friendly We also loved that they have complementary electric car chargers Overall, I would stay there again for the price we paid

This quaint little hide away, just off US 302 was clean, warm and homey The rooms were spacious and the bathrooms large The Lodge is hosted by a mother and son team which were very friendly and knowledgeable about good places to eat and thing to do for entertainment

Thanks for making our 2 day stay a pleasant one And thanks to Richard from another hotel for recommending them, when he had no vacancy at his place

Bodeman72

We had an absolutely lovely time; we stayed here this past weekend while hiking a Bonds traverse in the Mountains Every thing about the lodge made us feel right at home, from the lovely spacious, and beautifully appointed corner deluxe room, comfy chairs, and a great view of the mountains right out the window The staff were extremely pleasant, friendly, and added a personal touch to the experience that you just don’t see anymore at a lot of places

We look forward to staying again!

Alan Seabright

We had a last minute change in plans due to a hiking injury Carol at Carlson’s was very helpful Our stay turned out better than we expected

The room had everything we needed We brought back our dinner and ate outside with beautiful views of the mountains Carol gave us very personal attention, providing suggestions for nearby activities (we could still do)

We came for a quick overnight to meet up with friends from Maine Overall it was good however, the bathroom was in need of a good cleaning (the tub was dirty) and the kitchen floor sticky When we arrived we met the housecleaning staff 2 doors down

The room lacked a “clean’ smell even though there are stickers everywhere stating they used disinfectant Higher rating if the room had been cleaner

Jac Hau

I went for 3 weeks for work The hotel is older and worn I didn’t mind this, but the cleanliness was not as expected

My room smelled of stale smoke, it wasn’t clean and over my 3 weeks they did not clean the room Only replaced towels and sheets The hallways and stairwells look like they never got vacuumed eitherSome of the staff was really friendly, others were not The ice machine on the second floor was brokenOn the plus side the hotel is in a good location Mostly quiet, there were a few people partying in the common bbq area outside my room past 9pm and I tried to call the front desk but no one was there And the beds were comfortable The laundry facility was easy to use My room was next to the elevators on the 4th floor and I didn’t really hear people so it was pretty well insulated for sound from the hallsLooks like I have the same comments as everyone else and the hotel has apologized after each review but taken no action to correct the issue of cleanliness even though it would be easy to step that up

Natalie Kovach-Anta

This should not be ranked 42 stars on Google! Or considered a 3-star hotel I had to change rooms 3 times because they were so gross

The first had someone’s shaved hairs in the sink, a chewed on ottoman with dried slobber and a dirty kitchen floor The second had blood stains in the carpet in front of the bathroom sink (I’m sorry I ran out of there so fast I didn’t take a photo of that) The third had a grey couch that was stained brown in patches and a chair with scratches on the cushion The fourth was the last room available and my only complaint was the layer of dust on the headboard and in general the beds were poorly made The pool had hairs floating in it (I wore goggles) so I didn’t stay in I understand this hotel is pet friendly but I’ve stayed at others that are, and they were nice and cleanOnly good thing about this hotel was the front desk attendant David

Holiday inn definitely has great consistency If you’ve been to one Holiday inn express in NH then you know what the other Holiday inns here will be like I like how the room design is consistent across their different locations

The staff here are very courteous, the beds are comfy, and the room is cleanYou can check my other reviews if you want to compare the room design

Zachary Bennett

My girlfriend, our daughter and I stayed here a week ago and I decided to look at my bank account and I had a 63 dollar charge from the Hotel So I called and asked what its for and they said it was for stained pillow cases from hair dye Only 1 case was stained and it was stained lightly

It’s not like we broke something in the bathroom or the TV I would get that But it’s a pillow case and my girlfriend didn’t realize her hair dye came out on the pillow case Also I thought there was a $50 dollar incidental charge that you won’t get back if something happens

Kenneth Lucas

Feedback From Real Customers

Sterling Sigurd

Definitely one of the nicest Quality Inn hotels I have stayed in throughout the USA The staff is extremely friendly and helpful The amenities are more than enough for a hotel of this size

Rooms are extremely clean and comfortable with multiple setups The lobby and breakfast nook is great and they have a full breakfast bar again I highly recommend this hotel

Richard Fuller

Average but clean rooms, very responsive concierge/front desk The only downside was some of the guest smoking pot, screaming kids 2 doors down and guest that wore street clothes into the hot tub, creating 16″ of detergent foam on the surface The site, good, the facilities on, the staff exceptional the guest, meh, it’s 2021 cusp of 2022 and consideration of others and social graces are lacking!

Theo Wilson

Had a misunderstanding from Area Manager, that came out of his office, outside of building; to tell me; they don’t allow cooking in rooms I just looked at him and wondered, do all guest of color get this curbside service? I was appalled by him coming outside while I was cleaning my car out under the drive thru Thank you for your concern but I felt a little over welcomed, since I visited this place four days prior
