The room was amazing, same as with the living room where we had breakfast. Great views of the marina. The only issues were with the bathroom: the shower was very hard to find the balance between super hot and super cold water. The bathroom sink was too flat and the water was not cleaning the bowl properly.

Awesome stay!!
We’ve been to Newport many times. First time staying here and it didn’t disappoint. The staff was welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. The atmosphere at the living was comfortable and cozy. Love the food and the drinks were amazing!! Maurice and the rest of crew really know how to make some delicious crafty cocktails. We will definitely being staying here more often.
