    Probably just the age of the property but there’s nothing really wrong about it.

    The assistant Ashley at the property was such a great person, phenomenal attention to detail. She made our journey more memorable. The included breakfast was also top class.

    The only downside was the bathroom was rather small and there was nowhere to put your toiletries. Even a small shelf above the sink would have helped.

    The Serenity Inn Newport was in a great location, we did a lot of walking. Just down the street was Thames street that had lots of shops, restaurants and pubs. We had room 12, the queen room that was very comfortable, but you do have to climb 3 flights of stairs so if you have trouble with that will want to book on the first or second floor. Breakfast was amazing each day, and they were very accommodating if you wanted to exclude something from the daily breakfast that was offered. The staff was amazing, very friendly and informative about the area. Would definitely stay here again.

    The breakfast each day was ample and delicious, with plenty of coffee, juices and fresh fruit available. The service was prompt and the dining room very comfortable. The updated rooms were nicely decorated, bedding was comfortable, the shower was nicely sized and I always appreciate separate heating in the bathroom to keep it cozy coming out of the shower.

    The only downsides about our stay were that the bathroom had a bit of a strange odor when we checked in, but we managed to get used to it after a while. The room also got incredibly hot and dry at night, even with the heat turned off. Maybe because we were on the 3rd floor? I did also overhear that they are replacing all the carpets shortly which will look great.

    Our stay at the Serenity Inn was great! The building is charming, the decor is lovely, and the location is amazing....just a few blocks from downtown Newport. We were able to find street parking right in front of the Inn, but it's convenient that they also have reserved parking spaces in a lot a block away. The innkeeper was wonderful and kind, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious! We loved everything about our stay - and can't wait to stay again! I would absolutely (and already have) recommended Serenity Inn to anyone looking to stay in Newport.

    I should have known the deck view was on the third floor - which means you climb three flights of stairs. That is my fault - I should have thought, does and old house have an elevator? Of course it doesn't.

    Very nice staff and the home made breakfast was spot on perfect. They did a great job with everything.

    The stairs were a little steep and curvy for my mother to navigate comfortable, so request a main floor room if you have mobility issues. She also said the mattress was a bit firm for her liking but I was fine. Parking was also a little difficult due to the narrow lot, but we were told this in advance.

    Can't say enough wonderful things about this place. Adorable inn from the inside out. It was decorated beautifully for the holiday season and made us feel like we were staying in a holiday movie. The location was perfect and walkable to the waterfront and many nearby restaurants. Lisa and Maria were fantastic hosts and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our stay, and took the time to talk to us each day. I won't lie, our favorite part of every day was the breakfast. Each morning there was a 10/10 homecooked meal that filled us up for most of the day and started out each day with a smile. If I ever return to Newport, there's no question of where I'll be staying.

    Check-in process. We were offered early check-in and made arrangements with host. Upon arrival host was not there and would not be there for another 15-20 minutes. An email with instructions was sent but ended up in junk mail. Perhaps consider adding a note via the booking app to check your junk/spam email for info as it is different than checking in at a hotel. Also if you offer early check in and agree upon a time, be there. Or at least check back in with guest to let them know you’d be late.

    Location: steps from Thames street. Parking included. Inn style of property: cozy and intimate. includes a delicious breakfast. high quality of accommodation: everything was beautiful, clean, comfortable, charming. Maria was a delight! Warm and friendly.
