It was a fantastic stay with everything we needed! We loved that the space was stocked with supplies and perfectly clean. It's incredibly convenient to, as in "within sight of," the Tennis Hall of Fame and a very handy shopping center (we were playing in a court tennis tournament at the THOF, so this was very valuable for us), and Bellevue/the mansions.
The water is directly down the hill on Williams St., which should be noted for anyone who may have mobility issues, though Uber and the bike taxis are an option. Ultimately, every spot in Newport has to be either up or down the hill, with great attractions on the other side, so that's just the way it is.
I stayed with this host before and was so happy to do so again. I hope you have a similar experience! And go check out the court tennis court across the street while you're at it, it's only one of a handful in the country!
