I lived in Newport for 5 years and was so happy to get to spend the night again in the 5th Ward. The B&B is on a side street steps from Thames, about a ten minute walk from downtown (in other words, VERY close to the action, but quiet enough to not hear the clip-clop of high heels on cobblestone outside your window at 2am). Parking (albeit off season) was plentiful on the street by the house. The directions for coming/going were quite clear. The bed was large and I enjoyed the triangular pillows that allow you to prop pillows up when reading in bed. The room had a lot of extras like a toaster, ironing board, etc. It felt like staying at a friend’s house. Although I didn’t meet my hostesses in person, I felt well taken care of during my one night stay and also appreciated the privacy.
