Verified Reviews of Porter Square Hotel

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Rating"
Overall Score3.0/ 5
The room was too small and we had a hard time getting around. The closet was basically nonexistent. The toilet paper rack was way behind the toilet so you had to turn your whole body. The room was cold and we could not get the heat to work. For the amount we paid for one night, it was not worth it. The beds were comfy and the shower was nice and hot.
