    A very short but pleasant stay in a historic house on a quiet street
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Mattress a little hard, which is really a quibble given overall beauty of the room.

    We were a 15-minute drive to wedding at Castle Hill, our ultimate destination. We were within walking distance of a terrific place for breakfast and driving distance to Ash Mart (for a quick sandwich), recommended by young man at desk. We prefer guest houses to hotels/motels and were delighted to stay in a historically significant house with its period decor and objects and books. My spouse started the Lindbergh book! Oh, the neighborhood is so, so quiet. I spent a fair amount of time searching for a guest house. While closeness to Castle Hill was a priority for me, I am equally interested in the history of places.

    Apartment was at next door location, through a field with crab apples on the ground & up a long flight of stairs. Very tough to navigate for senior with mobility issues. Stair railing was covered in algea. Had we known this we would have booked elsewhere. Inn offered 10% cash discount but this was unavailable to us because we made the mistake of booking through Booking.com.

    Room was clean & spacious,. Location was good. Walk to Broadway restaurants.

    We had read in reviews that a full breakfast was included; however, only continental items were available - and there was a charge for anything but coffee. Not a big problem...just a bit confusing and disappointing.

    Nothing. Everything was great

    Great location. You’re close to everything, Thames street, tennis hall of fame, easy access to Easton’s beach and the free RIPTA buses go by the inn. Yet it’s still a quiet street.

    We liked sitting on the deck at night after coming back to the Inn. The deck needs some basic maintenance like pressure washing, and some basic landscaping. Its a little overgrown.

    Very clean. Centrally located. Nice amenities like free teas or cofee, free candies. A nice selection of items to buy such as beer , wine soda, small breakfast items and snacks. Good parking as well.

    This is an old house that was converted into small hotel with narrow and steep stairway making lugging suitcases up and down a bit tight. Staff is not present most of the time (although there seemed to be provision for contacting someone online). Owners and staff do their best to make things nice, but given what it is, seems a bit pricey.

    Quiet cozy hotel with pleasant yard and balcony. Room was clean and functional. Tea/coffee stand in lobby 24 hours. Located quite centrally in Newport, and ample parking in lot

    Building is old, so you hear the plumbing from the room upstairs.

    Beautiful inn! We stayed in Captain's Quarters, which was nice and large. The bed was comfortable, and the sitting nook with the bay window was amazing. Also, there is a porch swing!

    There’s no free drinking water during your stay so you have to bring lots of water, but from a local convenience store, or pay for overpriced water.

    Packaged breakfast food was available, but comparable stays nearby included fresh breakfasts free of charge. That was a bit of a letdown.
