Where do I start? Let me start with the host, Leppy. She is wonderfully extroverted, warm, interesting & informative (Newport is her town & she unabashedly loves it, so you feel her enthusiasm). I felt like I knew her from the second we met. We stayed in her charming downstairs unit & had everything we needed (including a bottle of wine upon arrival!) You can walk anywhere from her place. Coming from Florida, the neighborhood has a wonderful old New England vibe, which you want when visiting such an old & historic town as Newport. We loved our stay in Leppy's place and would recommend it to anyone reading this review. Thank you Leppy for your very communicative messages ending with "Leppy standing by"! Loved that! She's a fabulous host.
