Overall, it was a nice simple room to stay for a good price (every other place to stay was outrageously priced), with quick access to all the great spots in Newport (approx 10 min drive from the downtown). The room was very, very clean and as others said, it fit the description fairly well: Two queen beds, small bathroom and a pretty good/strong AC unit. You do need to walk up approx 3 flights of stairs so be prepared especially if you pack heavy.
Communication was easy, as I did have a question prior to our check in and the host was quickly responsive. Upon check-in, we had access to fresh towels (quite a few actually which was great), as well as travel size shampoo/conditioner bottles and bars of soap. There was a mini-fridge/freezer which was a nice touch that I didn’t think we would have as well as a bucket for ice. The only downside of the room was 1) the shower stall was VERY narrow so showering was a little challenging as it was a really confined space with minimal shelving to hold your items and 2) the walls separating all the nearby rooms were quite thin. Every move made such as walking up and down the stairs was easily heard, as well as conversations the other guests were having so that was kind of a bummer. There are quiet hours requested so no one was “rowdy”, but it was a little frustrating feeling “so close” to others. Most of the guests weren’t there during the day so it only became a bit of a bother upon bed time or late at night, and in the early morning hours. We tried to be as quiet as possible, even when walking up/down the stairs as to not disturb anyone. The wifi was a little tricky too at first, but I eventually figured out the password and you did have to re-connect each time. The host made it very apparent that they were open to you reaching out at anytime so that was very comforting.
Another plus was that the parking in the back of the building was super easy and because there are only a few rooms, having a spot each time we left and returned was not a problem. The location actually allows for pretty easy Uber/Lyft pick up and drop off as well. Of course, we were seconds from Ma’s Donuts which was amazing!
Again, we really only needed a place to sleep and shower, and it really was extremely clean/spotless (literally smelled so clean!) so we would book again if the price is just as good. If you have more than two of you in the room, it may be a little tight but up to 4 could definitely fit. I think this is definitely a great place for couples or single travelers to stay but I think having young children with you may be difficult as the increased noise from just having youngsters may be challenging to maintain, given my previous mention of the noise being easily heard.
Good experience overall.
