Very convenient location. Limited breakfast options. If you're looking for a clean and inexpensive room with no frills, this is the place. I would stay here again.

The property was near the traffic circle. But the traffic at times is still too busy for a cicle. I used other roads to avoid a left turn at the circle.

The room smelled every time the air conditioning was on. We attempted to open the window for fresh air which was nice... but then the highway noise took over. Not too bad for a 1 night stay

Ho Jo in Portsmouth, NH

The room was clean and everything functional. One of the beds had a broken row of springs that caused it to sag on one side. The breakfast is a few different bread items, juice, coffee, microwave egg sandwiches and cereal.

I travel in summer from Maryland to Midcoast Maine. I love to stop at Howard Johnson (originally called America’s Best Inn) in Portsmouth, NH because it is quiet, clean, has a night desk, a nice breakfast and the employees are friendly!

Good deal for visiting Portsmouth

Great hotel for the price. Located just outside Portsmouth. Nice staff, updated room and comfortable. AC was a bit loud.
