Lorraine is a wonderful hostess. Her knowledge of Newport is extensive. Having grown up there, she can fill you in on the current as well as the past, good old days! She is a wealth of information , with a great sense of humor, and one of the best airbnb owners I have yet to meet. Her place is charming, the rooms are spacious and lovely, as well as quiet, for being centrally located. You can stroll down to the waterfront or take a shuttle if you plan to be back before 8. The pool is a plus if you have time to relax! An oasis in the middle of the mansions. Staff is great as well!
