I’m a nurse, started to work in the local hospital ( Queen Alexandra Hospital) my partner come from Portugal as we decided to stay here. We wanted to know the city, houses prices etc. I’m renting at the moment a bedroom in a friends house, but because we wanted some privacy, I decided to book a hotel near my friends house in Southsea, for us to get to know the area. Southsea Inn ( the Inn doesn’t apply to the place to be honest) was, and is, one of the worst places I ever stayed. The room is dated, with wall paper ripped and coming from the walls, cheap furniture, dirty and old carpets, the mattress have some broken springs what makes it really uncomfortable, there’s no spoons etc. The other guests were people that as far I understood, are staying for a while and by the looks of it, are people that is homeless or need some kind of help. Nothing against that, but they shouldn’t mix normal guests with other kind of guests. The rooms are with no sound protection, what means that you hear everything from the outside and vice versa. In a positive not the owners are very polite.
