This is the Best AirBnB experience we’ve ever had due to so many wonderful qualities about both the place and the host. Brian was amazing with communication, promptness, friendliness and overall helpfulness. We stayed long-term for more than a week and can only rave about our experience.
For starters, it is the perfect location to all the wonderful boutiques, restaurants and other shops at the center of beautiful Bristol, RI. From the front porch, you can stand and literally see the ocean right at the bottom of the block. It’s on a street with one of the oldest churches in the city and you can hear the ringing of the bells from the towers occasionally. You can also hear the fog horns of ships passing in the night. It was all very romantic.
Brian’s place was perfect. It was modern, extra clean, spacious and. We’ve stayed at a few AirBnBs and most of the beds have been disappointing due to either the age of the mattress or the instability of the bed frame or just the general comfort of sleep. Brian’s beds were perfect. The two Queen size beds are in separate bedrooms on the 2nd floor and we absolutely loved the way they felt. We could tell they were new and the sheets had just been laundered. The rooms were set-up so nicely with extra space heaters, extra comforters, desk lamps and dressers and extra sitting chairs. He also added an electric fireplace heater that made the room feel romantic and wonderfully cozy. We loved the living room set-up especially due to the extra large flatscreen with access to all the major channels and apps — Amazon streaming, Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Showtime and more. There is a back porch with a grill should you wish to use that in the warmer months, too. The living room had a gorgeous marble-top table that we used for work and the use of our laptops.
All in all, It was such a romantic and ideal getaway for a busy professional couple. And....I must add...If you have a larger party or family, the space was ample for sharing, too. If you decide to visit this little Rhode Island seaside town, it’s worth it! It’s sometimes overlooked for larger cities like Newport, RI, but you get less crowds and less commercialism and less noise, but the same New England coastal town feel. If you decide to come, stay at Brian’s! You won’t regret it!
