Agree with everyone here saying Portsmouth (we were probably all there for the same client lol)

Lovely area, if not the Wentworth there are other little hotels like a Residence Inn, Sheraton, and AC.

Wentworth By the Sea in NH

The AC in Portsmouth is by the wentworth and should be cheaper and then you could easily walk to things around Portsmouth

Portsmouth?

Thanks all! Any reasons for Portsmouth over Portland ME?

One of your roommates (and a close friend that you’ve known for years) has a flight to catch. He has a suitcase, a duffle bag (no wheels), and a backpack. In order for him to get to the airport would you:

A) offer to drive him to the airport that’s about .5 miles away (5 minute drive)

B) tell him to order an Uber since you know his work would pay for it

C) tell him to not be lazy and walk half a mile to the nearest public transportation stop, with all that luggage, and take public transit
