The title says it all. For tourists (we were), this is REALLY far from the harbour, rail station and downtown Portsmouth. The breakfast was far below the average B&B breakfast. Service was good.

I have visited the Portsmouth uni early this year (2008) and have been suggested to stay at the Ferrymen while looking for a house. It as been too short a stay. Very clean and spacious room, shared bathroom but huge, with both an american shower and a bathtub, all VERY clean. No noise in my experience, probably the other reporter... More

This is an interesting Art Deco building run by a nice man who seems to be trying really hard to make a successful business. He was very helpful and welcoming and the rooms clean and well decorated. However it was really noisy. The hallways echoed the noise and the front windows dont cut any street noise. Also the curtains didnt... More
