We had a wonderful time in the private section although we could only stay for one night. Decorated with anchors and nautical appeal, it was absolutely fitting for Rhode Island, especially Newport! Richard was very responsive and welcoming, the room had everything we would need and the bathroom even had lots of travel size items (Although we did not get a chance to use them). Uber rides to downtown cost between $6-15 or about a 15-20 min walk.
