    The room was good, but considering the price, nothing extraordinary. It looked a little old but well kept.

    The staff was top notch, and the location is great if you wanna walk around and sight see.

    The rooms have a bit of a musty smell. The bathrooms are a little dated for the price paid. The rest of the hotel is nice but is pricey compared with other hotels in the same condition.

    There is a rooftop bar that looks over Newport Very beautiful.

    Like I said, the elevator broke down, we had some minor problems with the television, nothing really to speak about.

    Breakfast was delicious, the elevator broke down while we were there. I had remembered the hotel being better the last few times I stayed there.

    Front door staff didn’t help us get luggage inside, carried suitcase to top of steps and dropped them? Why not roll them into front desk with us? Market area needs more staff. Stood in line for 15 minutes for a cup of coffee. Not enough towels in the bathroom.

    Room was clean. Location was convenient. Front desk staff was very friendly.

    The hallway to our room in the basement (Level 1) felt uninviting. Looked out into parked cars. The light in bathroom was attached to a loud fan. Air conditioner didn’t work and was not addressed until last day. Cleaning staff had been in there and didn’t pick up on the fact the room was muggy and AC constantly on. Front desk staff seemed put out to help with anything other than checking in.

    Room was spacious. Location was in the center of town.

    The bathrooms are very small, and very hard to brush your teeth in due to the sink and mirror being so close together. Also, for a hotel without its own parking, the valet service should be INCLUDED. :(

    The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, and the hotel is great walking distance to downtown. The rooftop bar has a great view and live music, and the rooms were so comfortable! Netflix is on the TV which was great for coming back to at night.

    Food could have been better and drinks. We also paid for the 4th of July lobster boil…food was average and not really worth the price.

    Valet staff were quick engaging and professional…waitstaff was very friendly. Housekeeping very prompt.

    That they are pet friendly only in certain areas, they ran out of drinking water one of the nights we stayed and we had to door dash.

    The location was amazing, we could walk to most spots that we wanted to visit. It was clean and we enjoyed the rooftop and cafe.

    The parking fee is a bit high ($40 per night) knowing that there is free on street parking around the corner. The rooms are older and could use some upgrading, but overall it is a very nice hotel with a great staff.

    The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The location is perfect for touring the waterfront or the mansions. Great restaurants in walking distance and a very nice roof bar at the hotel.

    the room was extremely small, bathroom was right In front of the bed witch super awkward. The bathroom sink was the size of a water fountain you’d find on a playground, absolutely no space to put toiletries. $1200 fir a two night stay with that amount of space was not worth it.

    the roof deck was really nice and so was the staff.

    This hotel was much bigger than I thought. A lot of hallways to navigate to get to ones room. The quality of the hotels construction doesn't match the price of the room. The rooms mechanics are noisy.

    The location and the colonial style feel of the hotel. The family activities set-up pool side were charming. The valet and front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.
