We booked two apartments in Dec2014 with Cindy for a Aug 2015 stay for a group of 11 people. Cindy was outstanding in her responses clarifying all our queries. Her place is perfect for groups or small family of 4 which was our apartment. There is an Indian convenience store next door, the Newport mall is stones throw away with loads of shopping, food courts, etc and the station to get to NYC was a 7-10 minute walk. We used the barbecue at the backyard of the g/f apartment and generally loved everything about our stay. Cindy gave clear instructions and everything was as advertised with the silent gem being the on call laundry service who picked up clothes by weight and gave it back washed and pressed for just around 20-25 dollars. Thanks Cindy for everything. Just to be fair, there are no lifts and we carried 3 suitcases up 4 flights and the cable TV reception was patchy but wifi worked great. Strongly recommended for large groups or small family.
