Sandy and Kate were perfect hosts. We arrived very late on a week night and they made a point of greeting us and even had hot yummy food waiting for us upon our very late arrival! The apartment is absolutely perfect and accommodated the 5 of us very well. The beds were so comfy. This location couldn't be any better. Right in the heart of Thames St...walking distance to almost everything.. shops, great restaurants, the pier etc. Kate left a wonderful information binder and had great suggestions for dining etc. Visiting Sandy's studio's are a must (he also has displays of his work in the apartment). He is an amazing artist and it definitely enhanced the trip! This was our first AIRBNB & first time to Newport and it couldn't have been any better!!
