This was the 2nd time staying here and unfortunately we got the same room number 17. To use the shower you need to kneel in the bath, the toilet was constantly making noises as though it was filling itself overnight, it was making the noise when we arrived, we did ask if we could change rooms but the very nice girl on reception said it would be another £20 (on checking their website the only room available was only £12 more than we had paid) we declined. Unfortunately we won't be staying here again

had to park in the next street, a little run down
we spent 2 nights here, it was ok, the loo has a macerator so was quite noisy to flush, and smelt a bit damp in the bathroom, it was clean and towels provided, I was worried the shower unit was going to come off the wall, was very loose, the shower head is old, and sprays everywhere, the carpet could do with being replaced, street noise from people and traffic, there is a Chinese and Italian restaurant close by, and was very handy location for the university open day!

The hotel is conveniently placed in Old Portsmouth. The receptionist was efficient and pleasant. The hotel itself is on the basic side of basic, but it is clean, the bed is sound and there is a kettle in the room. The shower room was remarkably compact. Note that it is only a hotel - the main ground floor premises are a (separate) pizza parlour, Florio's. The "pub sign" shows Florio's name, not The Duke of Buckingham's.

Liked: Amenities
Property itself is a a great price. BUT... The beds are very hard with lumps in. I had to get out of the double and lay in single as it was a little better. The rooms are SO noisy. Main front door slamming with people coming in and out. Creaky stairs and floorboards above which let you hear all conversations and thumping around as people walk around the room. Slept really bad :(
