Paul’s house is very cozy. Not too big and just enough for us, 4 adults and 1 toddler. The kitchen is great. We could make breakfast and enjoy the food before a busy sightseeing day. We also like its location, which is very close to Newport, and also is in a charming island. There is 4 dollars toll each way to get in to and come back from Newport though. Our toddler enjoyed the playground nearby Paul’s house very much. However, just like floors in most of the old houses, the floor could get squeaky. We had to constantly remind our toddler not to run or jump as there are tenants downstairs.
Paul is always very responsive and very helpful in providing any information. At first I was a bit surprised by the rental agreement Paul asked us to sign as I have never signed any rental agreement before to stay in AirBnb homes. We had some discussions about this and Paul was always very friendly and understanding in all our discussions. We chose to bring our sheets and towels to avoid doing the laundry the last day as this is a left-it-as-you-found-it house. For people who have tight schedule or want to travel light, it’s probably easier to book a cleaning service through Paul. Overall we really enjoyed this cozy place.
