Anchorage Inns and Suites Hotel - Page 1

A friend and I decided to stay up in Portsmouth for the weekend, and had lined up a room at the Anchorage. We checked in around 7:30pm, and planned on getting changed and heading to the Wentworth and hitting the town. When we were ready to leave, we discovered that gee, the door wouldn't open. WE WERE ACTUALLY LOCKED INTO OUR THIRD FLOOR SUITE! After several attempts by the staff, (which included waiting for the maintanence man to be called in) we ultimately ended up getting handed tools under the door, and having to disassemble the door from the inside. It was 10:30pm by the time we had escaped our room, and by this time had entirely lost motivation to go "hit the town". The thing that really gets me is that they still had the gall to charge me $85.00 at check out the next day! Since I stupidly did not voice my disgust that day, I will at least give warning, and tell you that there is a Best Western down the road that is about the same quality, for a bit more reasonable price. And I don't know of anyone getting locked in.

Good deal but you are getting what you pay for. This is an average 2 star hotel. The rooms are clean but a little dark and a little musky. Decent AC and television but this is a level below a Holiday Inn and two below a Sheraton. It is a 5 considering the hotel rate compared to its comparables.

The room was very clean, and the king size bed was probably the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in.

The only down falls were that the room was too warm at night, the ac/heating unit would only go so low. The breakfast was definitely not deluxe, you could have gotten a better breakfast at a truck stop. And the pool area was so chlorinated that our eyes burned the moment we stepped into the room.

There really wasn't an area to "hang out" in at the hotel. It’s definitely worth the $79 I paid a night though.
