    Negative Reviews

    negative:

    Faulty Facilities.

    The Portland is set within an old building and with that come some inherent issues. Guests mentioned problems with heating while others said water pressure was lacking in showers.

    negative:

    Noisy Nights.

    With the pub downstairs noise will filter through to upstairs at times. Guests occasionally found rooms and nights noisy. If you are a light sleeper, request a room away from the bar, to the back of the hotel.

    negative:

    Small Rooms.

    Some guests said the rooms were too small for their liking and expectations with little room for bags. However others found the rooms suitable to their needs.
