Engaged but not intrusive. The property was perfect with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Parking can be tricky but not impossible. May just have to park around the corner. Details of facilities in the area were spot on and very useful. The Netflix went down just before we left which I would have reached out about if we were staying longer but was fine for the bulk of our stay. Would definitely return if staying in Portsmouth again. Thank you Tilly 😊 ##### Amanda P.

It could do with binds or curtains at the back as on a sunny day the dining area gets too hot. ##### David D.
