Excellent B&B with Fantastic Location
Stayed in room 8. It was a great B&B, with a comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The breakfast each morning was fantastic. They provide parking at a nearby parking lot, which is amazing because parking in Newport is expensive and hard to find. The best part was the location. Such a short walk to Bowman's Wharf and the rest of Thames street.

Room was nice but tiny, basically only had room for bed. Shower was wonderful. Breakfast was great and staff so nice and helpful. Huge drawback was off site parking.

We had a great time for our first stay in a bed and breakfast. The staff is amazing and they make the entire check-in process so easy. this location is within walking distance to all of the shopping and restaurants in Newport. The breakfast in the morning was delicious, and you cannot beat the view off the top deck. thank you, we will be back.!

Our stay here was great!! Serena was so accommodating and called ahead to ask about arrival time + dietary restrictions for daily made breakfasts which were incredible, and included in cost of stay. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and updated and the roof deck was just an extra perk! Will recommend to others, and if I’m back in Newport I will definitely stay here.
