I moved to Newport for a job at the Naval War College which is only a couple of miles away from Rachel's place so it worked out very well for me. The location is convenient to downtown, all the touristy places like Cliff Walk and Easton Beach, walkable to shops and restaurants on Broadway. Rachel is wonderful and a very thoughtful host! She pays attention to little details to make you feel comfortable. In my early days when I didn't know much about the area, she was a most wonderful guide - quick to respond to my questions via text. She really goes the extra mile to be helpful! I am so glad I got to stay here and would definitely stay there again.
