Walk to the Waterfront: Spacious Condo in the Heart of Newport

Good overall condo

Steve was very responsive and answered all my questions. It was in a convenient area for me. There are bars very close by, which wasn't a big issue for us.

The Condo was really nicely appointed and clean- great location. We didn't pay attention to the fact that it was a 3rd floor walk up, which was difficult for our elderly mother, otherwise perfect for our family.

The property was centrally located in downtown Newport, making most destinations easily accessible. However, there were a few drawbacks. The apartment was on the third floor, which should be emphasized in the listing. During our weekend getaway, we had four couples, all in reasonably good shape, yet even so, climbing the stairs—especially with luggage—was quite a task. Upon entering the apartment, there was an unpleasant odor, and unfortunately, we couldn’t air it out due to the absence of screens in the windows. Additionally, a few floorboards were peeling, and some of the showers had black mold on the ceilings.” Four $5200 for a total of two nights, you would expect this property to be in a bit better shape

The apartment is in a great location, easy to walk to bars/restaurants. Steve was communicative and easy to get in touch with, and check in and check out were super easy. I would stay here again/recommend to a friend.

Due to the mis-representation of this property, we were not able to stay at this property for any of the stay and had to find alternate lodging at the very last minute. This property was listed as 'new and luxury' and was definitely not. It was sub par in every way. More like a college hang out than an adult and family lodging. I contacted the host and he was completely unhelpful.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Steve was very communicative and answered questions right away. As previously reviewed, it is the top apartment in a building that has two other units. It's a lot of stairs, but they were wide, had railings, and had skid-proof flooring. We stayed on a chilly weekend in April, and the heat worked well. The unit was very clean and the kitchen was well-stocked. The living room was large and had enough seating for all of us. The bedrooms each had their own bathrooms, so that was great. The location can't be beat -- we were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to. As previously stated, parking is tricky. Since it was off season we parked in a nearby church parking lot and gave a donation. Street parking was scarce, and there was construciton going on so it blocked off the street in front of the building. It was a little tough to find, but once we did we enjoyed ourselves.

We came in on Saturday and had a very easy check in. The property is located so close to the shopping and sites. There is offsite parking, which is easy to maneuver. The property was spotless. Everything was absolutely perfect. The only suggestion would be to have body wash and shampoo in each bathroom. We had to go out and buy our own. Besides that this property gets five stars. We had a wonderful weekend.

GREAT spot! Four bedrooms and four bathrooms, and a pull out couch in the living room. There are some stairs to get up to the unit but my group and I didn’t find this to be an issue! The spot is so perfectly located and getting in was very easy. Great spot for a big group that isn’t necessarily doing everything together because you can get in and out without needing to coordinate keys just using the keypads. Would definitely recommend for your next visit to Newport!

The stay was ok. The place is close to a lot of stuff in walking distance. The coffee shop below is very good along with the restaurants around it. The downside is, it is also near a halfway house and a very loud bar that did play loud music till very late/early AM on both Friday and Saturday night. The actual place was updated, clean, and HUGE! It was nice that all of us had our own space and own bathroom. The beds were super hard and really squeaky though. Be advised there are A LOT (48 to be exact) stairs that lead straight to the top. The apartment was stuffy at times and didn’t have the greatest airflow. We felt weird opening windows since there were no screens in any of the windows. Parking was annoying but we found a lot a few blocks over that only charged $30 a night, but you had to be sure to put money in the meter by 9AM each morning. We expected the parking being an inconvenience since it is such a small city with little not public street parking. The side street is not very busy and had 5min parking that we used to drop off and pick up our bags. We used Uber and the best way to get a good pick up and drop off was to use the dry cleaners address since the door for the apartment isn’t actually on a street and more of an alley. For a quick trip for a wedding it was a good alternative option to the very expensive local hotels and Inns. We had all the conveniences of a home and lots of space which we enjoyed. Despite it all we would book it again.
