We found Jan to be most helpful in introducing us to her apartment. She arranged to be there on our arrival, and gave us detailed instructions on the workings of the property. We were especially grateful for the washer/dryer, a feature not present in three previous places in which we had stayed. Three out of four of us enjoyed the funky and eccentric decor, though we all agreed that the interior was a little dark. The kitchen is very well stocked and the bathroom is great. One minor point would be that the mattresses are a little hard.
The strength of this property is its proximity to downtown Newport, not more than 15 minutes walk away. It's also close to the Newport Mansions.
Overall, our experience at Jan's property was positive and she was a most helpful host. If we return to Newport we will certainly stay at her place again
