I booked Scott's listing with confidence after reading through all the glowing reviews left by previous guests. Our stay at his home exceeded those expectations. My friends and I stayed Fri-Sun for Newport Jazz Festival, and I recommend his place to anyone looking to make the most of their time in Newport.
Things I loved:
-the proximity...to everything (>10 minute drive to Fort Adams, Ocean Drive, the Mansions, Cliff Walk; ~15 minute drive to Easton Beach, SeaStreak Ferry, and Newport's finest restaurants; 5 minute drive to supermarket)
-newly furnished kitchen: we cooked breakfast every morning and it was stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishwasher, spices etc. everything we needed for comfortably cooking
-stocked fridge and tons of snacks
-Scott's responsiveness: Scott was one of the most responsive airbnb hosts I've ever come across. Available, but unobtrusive.
