As the other reviews indicate, right smack in the heart of downtown Newport. Great location. You can walk everywhere. Parking is tough, so plan ahead. The host will send you detailed instructions on all your options. If you're arriving after hours, the directions Tara provides are very clear in how to get the key to get in. This is a very interesting location: the Seamen's Institute caters (catered?) to ocean bound sea farers and the old Chapel is very interesting. (There's a brochure that explains all the art work. A bit dark because there is only a small candelbra; you'll need to use your flashlight.) Owner of the cafe downstairs, Brian, and his entire team are very hospitable. In the elevator lobby there are pictures of sailors lost at sea. The entire floor is disability friendly, presumably inspired by seamen who were disabled in the course of their hazardous profession. Two huge common bathrooms are clean and well lit. Surprised to find so many thoughtful amenities in there. Loved the bed in our room. There is no dresser, but roomy closet and a sling seat for your suitcase. If you're staying longer than a few days, it's a terrific seamen's bed with drawers underneath. We're going to buy one like it for our son, who eschews closets and dressers, but would love this.
