My husband & I took this trip to have a relaxing quiet weekend to explore Newport. This place was exactly what we wanted. It was in the heart of the downtown area of Newport, an easy walk to all of the great restaurants and bars and shops, as well as the scenic wharfs. We spent most of our time out and about, and not much time at the house.
Our room was quaint, simple and fresh, perfect for us. If you are looking for luxury, upscale, spacious accommodations, or if you require TV and AC, then this may not be the place for you. We were there in mid-June, and the room temperature was comfortable with the bay breezes coming through the windows along with the ceiling fan. The bed was comfortable, the en-suite bathroom had a shower with great water pressure, and there was plenty of space in the room. There is even a small private deck.
Since we didn’t know anything about Newport, our host Merrilee was exactly what we needed. She knows everything about the town, and gave us great information about where to go, where to eat, where to park, where to catch the beautiful sunset. All in all, it was a great little vacation for us.
