We had the worst night of sleep we ever had at a hotel. We chose this hotel because there weren't that many options in Portsmouth. We were given a room directly in front of the loud and obnoxious late hours club, and the window was broken, so we weren't able to close the window completely. The music was blasting until 1 a.m. and there were drunken people shouting at about 4 a.m. We had one of the youngest children in the hotel, and they decided to give us this room on the first floor. When I asked the front desk and maybe manager about it, there was a collective shrug and no apologies or trying to make it better. Don't stay here if you want a good night's sleep.
