Pamela was an excellent host. I visited Newport for the weekend with two of my friends and her home was perfect for our needs. She was very communicative throughout the entire process and her home was well-kept. She provided towels, soap, shampoo, everything you could need for a comfortable stay. She even provided a continental breakfast each morning (muffins, bagels, yogurt, fruit, fresh coffee). She was very friendly and knowledgeable about Newport, but also gave us plenty of space and privacy. We did have one other person who overlapped with our reservation, however we were in the larger room with two beds (plus an air mattress, which Pamela provided) and still had plenty of privacy. My only critique (and it's more of an FYI than a critique) is that Pamela does have two cats, which I didn't know when I made the reservation (the listing says "some pets" but didn't specify which type, which is perhaps my fault for not clarifying). I have cat allergies but thankfully had allergy medicine with me, however depending on how severe your allergies are, you might need to consider other accommodations, as you will encounter cat hair in the apartment. Other than that, we had a wonderful time and would certainly recommend Pamela to other travelers. Thanks for the great stay, Pamela!
