Pleasant experience, friendly staff, and great location. My only issue is that the mattress wasn't very comfortable- i'd expect a higher quality sleeping experience for this kind of establishment, but this is a relatively minor issue.

This was a wonderful B&B to stay in Newport! Our room was very comfortable, so cozy! The daily breakfast option with two different time slots was so perfect and each meal was amazing! The happy hour nightly from 4-6pm along with nighttime cookies was a perfect touch. Everywhere was walkable and easy to access. The staff was perfect, friendly, and went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable. We even had a late flight out and they allowed us to stay in our room until we needed to leave. I would highly recommend this stay for anyone coming to Newport!!

We stayed in the Hydrangea Suite for three nights. The Inn was nicely located, quiet, and clean. The owners were nice. Breakfast was delicious. There were a couple porches on the back that we enjoyed in the evenings. And there was more-than-ample parking. But there were some negatives. Our "all marble bathroom" was wallpapered and had a dated fiberglass shower enclosure. The "steam" in the "steam shower" didn't steam. The vanity light switch caused the GFI breaker to pop about half the time. The AC was installed in a hole that looks like a child carved it and was plugged into an outlet with no cover. The tub surround was to high and wide to allow one to step into the tub but it was too narrow and uneven to allow one to "sit and spin". We never once got the nightly turndown service with the promised chocolate chip cookies. We tried to watch a movie one rainy night only to find that the Inn had no premium cable channels; not even HBO, for instance. And our room was never cleaned before about 1:45 in the afternoon. None of the negatives would keep us from going back but we'd have been disappointed if we were motivated to stay there by a few of these things.

Breakfast was excellent. Amy is a great cook. The scones were out if this world. The service is very attentive. Our room was large and comfortable. The sink didn’t drain properly but otherwise everything was great. The carpeting in the common areas could use a steam cleaning. Location and parking were superb.

Great location, nice room. Very friendly staff. Drawbacks were the radio playing all night long in lobby that we could hear in our room. For breakfast there were no choices , ended up eating elsewhere. Get a water purifying system, reverse osmosis, the planet does not need more plastic water bottles . Google the damage of water bottles to the environment and people’s health.

Our first trip - a birthday getaway weekend
Our first trip to Newport, RI, was spent here. We wanted to see a few of the “cottages” as they are known, but also go downtown and have a wonderful Sunday brunch. This spot met all our needs for my birthday weekend celebration. The breakfasts were so good on Sat that we didn’t go anywhere else for breakfast on Sun. (We did splurge and go to Marble House for a high tea experience at Noon.) Our room was on the top floor - generous in size. We don’t try out the large bathtub in the space but it was very quiet (despite a hotel being across the street); I brought ear plugs but didn’t use them at all. And it was in walking distance to downtown and a short drive to the mansions. A delightful stay!

I really enjoyed my stay here. Laura, Bambi and the crew were all really cool. Beautiful 2 course breakfast every morning in the dining room. A Very nice and quaint establishment with a groovy whiff of music through the ambience of a “time gone by” playing downstairs. Loved the verandahs out the back in the late balmy evenings. It is in an incredibly accessible location in Newport. Just the right walking distance from everything.

Beautiful old building with great character. The two-room suite was quite spacious, the bathroom was large with a two-person shower. My only complaint is that the top of the wooden desk and top of side table needs refinishing, upon entering our room, the first thing we saw was the wood desk with major scratches and worn varnish on the top surface. That sort of put us off till we got a feel for the rest of the room.
