The Birdhouse was a great one night stay to crash in Newport. Kate greeted us at the door and was very welcoming. She gave great tips to get around town, what beaches to visit (Second Beach) and great places to eat. It was helpful to have her suggestions, especially telling us about public transportation and buses.
Just remember you are renting a room with other Air B&Bers - we had a very pleasant stay and met a few people. You may wait for the bathroom in the AM, but we did not find this to be too troubling.
For the price, the location is great. You can walk anywhere you want to go downtown.
