This property is in a great location only a 5 minute drive from downtown Newport. It's walkable if you are a serious "walker" although probably a bit far if you aren't accustomed to long walks. The house was clean and bright with a nice deck out back in the yard that has a lovely open view for sitting and having breakfast or a cocktail. The host was terrific communicating with us. Check in was super easy and she came right over to the house when we had a bit of an issue getting the tv to work, which she solved quickly. The house itself has a real beach cottage feel ie: 1960's paneling on the walls and a rather dated kitchen with no dishwasher - so if you are looking for sleek and modern, this is not the place but we felt right at home - it's very comfortable and was the best deal around for Newport which can be rather pricey in the summer months. And you can walk right over to the beach just down the hill. It's in a quiet neighborhood without any of the late night noise from the bustle of downtown Newport during the peak season. I would mention that I didn't notice any AC or fans although we didn't need any during our stay as it was a lovely temperature. Perhaps you would need to check with the hostess if they supply any fans during the heat of the season. Overall, we had a great stay!
