    Someone who stayed there stole a bottle of my wine that I had in the communal refrigerator which wasn't the Inn's fault. Some people are just jerks:)

    Crystal cooked breakfast for me every day and was very accommodating and flexible! The choices were great and I never left hungry!

    Staying in history

    In keeping with the age of the buildings there are lamps and not over head lights, the rooms are dark which is only a problem when looking through a suitcase, we could have used a few scones or more lamps. Our king bed was two twins that kept separating, it was comfortable, but needed one of those belts to tie it together.

    Always a warm welcome at the Newport Inns on Clark St. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Good location for our needs, off street parking and good value. Best thing to do is call the Inn directly and ask for the room you want, booking.com makes it confusing as to what you are getting. The inn keeper works hard to make sure guests are accommodated, so just call him directly.

    Needs updating and attention to detail. Does not exhibit the “pride of ownership” we have usually experienced in bed and breakfasts.

    The room was fine but I would have liked a stand for luggage rather than just putting it on the floor. Also the hot water faucet was very hard to turn on.

    Breakfast was very good. Staff was friendly. We were happy to have off street/free parking and be able to walk most places.

    There was nothing to not like! Be aware, the houses are old, but are up to date. They all have steeper staircases and a creak here or there in the floor, but tjats part of the charm.

    Rick and his staff are phenomenal! Everyone was very kind and welcoming and willing to do whatever was necessary to make our stay better. We had breakfast both mornings we were there and it was very good. The portions weren't huge but were just right (and the coffee was very good too).

    The staff was super friendly and helpful. When we checked in, we asked the desk manager for recommendations in Newport for the next day. We followed her advice to a T and had a REALLY lovely day. Another highlight was the included breakfast. The coffee was the best we had the whole trip and the prepared breakfast was really delicious. It was so nice to have an included breakfast that was freshly made to order. The location was extremely convenient and walkable to everything in historic downtown Newport and the harbor. It was also really neat to stay in a building built in 1705! The room had all modern conveniences expected! I will recommend the Clarkeston Inn to friends/family visiting Newport in the future!

    I understand that noise proofing rooms in historical buildings is not easy due to ordinances. but the rooms that are down stairs experience a lot of noise from the outside windows.

    The staff where very friendly and helpful. Parking situation was well explained. The building is historical which adds a level of authenticity. the rooms are renovated to some extent to not remove the history of the place.
