Our stay was amazing! The location was perfect. The cafe downstairs was a bonus! The space is open and inviting. The sleeping situation was comfortable. The roof deck was a great place to sit and take on the beautiful surroundings.

We loved the apartment! It was exactly as pictured! It was clean. It was a perfect Bristol location for us! My only note to travelers is it is on a busy street so the front bedrooms can hear the cars and foot traffic from the restaurant below!

We stay here every year for our alumni reunion and it continues to be the perfect place! Always clean, an ideal location, and you can’t beat the deck. Berta is very communicative and accessible. Couldn’t recommend this VRBO more!

Perfect location for a wedding across the street at Linden Place. The host was easy to work with and very responsive. The rooms are large with plenty of space to gather and a nice large deck out back, although the deck surrounding is a bit industrial with large fans from the cafe below. That same cafe has a great breakfast and coffee menu, so highly recommend. It can get quite noisy as the location is amid the hustle of the town and next to the Post Office so the sound of mail carriers rolling large mailcarts from the building to their vehicles out back is louder than anyone would expect early in the am. Plan to sleep in eye masks if light bothers you because the lights surrounding the area are bright all night and the plastic mini blinds provide privacy but don’t block the light. Top rating for location, ample space and cleanliness!

Home is exactly as pictured, beautiful little home with lots of space. Very convenient location, everything is walking distance. The only complaint I had was that the walls seemed to be paper thin and could hear everything going on outside from all the rooms.

Great location and inviting space

The space was perfect for the group of us, the location is walkable to a number of restaurants and it’s a cute and quiet spot. We had a bunch of friends traveling in for a wedding, it was a great spot for us all to hangout and relax together when we weren’t at the wedding.

Outstanding place to stay in Bristol

We attended a family wedding at the Bristol Harbor Inn with our adult children and stayed here as a family. The location was spectacular, the layout of the apartment was exactly what we wanted.We did have a little bit of a problem getting in, but once that was Accomplished, we could not have enjoyed a better time. We certainly will be coming back here again. Next time we need to stay in Bristol.

Home away from home

So enjoyed our visit to Bristol. The home was beautiful, On the parade route and easy access to local food and shops. The open floor plan allowed our family to enjoy Time Together and with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, was perfect for our group. The host was super helpful and offstreet parking was great!

Perfect stay!

We were in town for a Newport wedding and this booking exceeded our expectations. The host, Berta, was gracious, accommodating, and responsive. The property was immaculate, had a huge deck, and was in a prime location near restaurants and parks. The beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. We would not hesitate to book here again. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Great location in the heart of Bristol. We were there for a wedding and all activities were within walking distance. There was no hairdryer which made getting ready tricky, to say the least.

Great centrally located condo

Our group of 6 adults came to Bristol for a wedding and had a great time at this unit - there were more bathrooms than listed (2.5 instead of 1.5), and the back deck with a partial water view was perfect. The bedrooms were also well insulated to noise from the cafe downstairs. Highly recommend!

Couldn’t have asked for a better location!

I stayed here with a group of friends for an RWU reunion weekend and we could not have asked for a better place. The bedrooms were large and great for our group of couples. We were right at the center of town, and could even see the water from the deck. An amazing trip. Berta was quick to answer the phone if we needed anything!

Family Wedding Stay in RI

Apartment was accurately listed on website, it was clean and spacious. We enjoyed the outside furniture as well. The location to the harbor and local eateries were perfect. As for suggestions, the shower curtain in main bathroom is the only thing we suggest changing. Other than that we enjoyed our stay!

Lovely and relaxing

The apartment was spotless, the beds were more comfortable than at home, and the location was perfect. We came for a wedding just around the block, and the apartment's deck was the perfect place for family members to gather between the ceremony and the reception. My whole family loved it, and we would 100% rent again. Berta was very responsive and helpful throughout the stay.

Short Wedding Stay

Berta was so helpful! A few friends stayed for 1-2 nights due to a wedding in RI. We had a wonderful time! The place was extremely clean and looked even better in person! Pictures don’t do it justice & amazing location! We were able to get our hair done and walk to the apartment from around the corner. We also went downstairs and had brunch in the morning. Great stay overall!
