Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Overall, the stay was great. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and the linens were nice and clean as well. The only things we could have complained about were the fans in the bedrooms. The room with the queen bed and bunk beds didn't work, and the fan in the master bedroom made a loud clicking sound when it was running. I would book this house again, other than the fans, it was a great trip, and a very nice neighborhood. I would recommend it if you need a place in Portsmouth
