Motel 6 Portsmouth, NH

Motel 6 Portsmouth, NH

10/10 Excellent
"A masterclass in contradictions. On one hand, the bed was genuinely comfortable. On the other hand, the sheet and blanket were so thin they could pull double duty as cheesecloth, and the single pillows provided zero structural support. The bathroom plumbing put on a full orchestral performance of groans every time we turned on the shower, and the lobby offered a live, uncredited telenovela performance by a lady having an absolute screaming match on speakerphone. We tried to process the whole experience over a cup of morning coffee, but it was so incredibly weak Im pretty sure a single coffee bean did a lap around the cup then decided it was time to check out early. If you enjoy 80s TV channels and chaos, book immediately."
