We were in the area working on an event and needed a place for some crew members. It was close to a lot of things, including the venue, and a cute neighborhood overall. There was an issue with the water, which was resolved quickly after communicating with the owner.

Easy access to downtown without being nosy, crowded. The property is appropriately historical and quirky but plenty comfortable.

We booked this place but it wasn't available at the last minute so Sondra switched us to a different apartment she had down the street from it. The apartment was larger but she honored our booking cost for this one. The location(for both) was amazing! Close to town without being in the middle of it so you have some calm as well. Perfect for social distancing & ideal to walk everywhere. It came with a parking space which is definitely a must in Newport. The decor was quite similar to this place: Newport preppy vibe that feels fresh like a boutique hotel as opposed to someone's apartment. Zero clutter which was refreshing. We had all of the amenities necessary to eat at home when we wanted to :such as a toaster/blender & coffeemaker as well as plenty of glasses, plates, pans etc. The apt was larger than this one but you can see they are owned/run by the same person so I imagine they are quite the same. We did bring our own sheets and towels which definitely ate up car space but I think that's why the prices were more reasonable so it's worth it. Overall we were pleased and would return to one of Sondra's properties in the future/hopefully this one!

The property was clean and cooled down quickly once we turned on the window ac units. Wish we had known in advance to bring our own sheets and towels. (this was not due to the owner miscommunication but due to all email going through the vrbo app - and us not checking). The one complaint was lack of spoons (3) and bowls (3) - there were at least 8 of everything else...
