Great location
Pros: Great location walking distance to many restaurants & shopping. I loved having an extra (4th) bedroom for the kids, but keep in mind you have to pass through one of the rooms to enter, or enter from the stairs. The owner, Sondra, was very accessible and accommodating. We were granted access to the second bathroom which was new and clean. We rarely used it because it was downstairs next to washer/dryer, but was nice to have the access when needed. Also, was really nice to have a washer/dryer with kiddos. Cons: The unit was pretty dusty upon arrival and dirty (stained couch, hair ties under furniture, etc). However, I heard the owner is replacing all the furniture so this may not be an issue for future renters. Also, the listing states dishwasher which was important for us since we had to wash bottles for our baby, but there was no dishwasher. This was my biggest issue but we dealt. I just wish I had known going in and the listing needs to be updated. Assuming the furniture is replaced and the unit is well cleaned, I’d still definitely recommend this place for all the qualities listed above (especially location), just keep in mind you’ll be hand washing dishes. Took off one star for above mentioned but overall happy with our stay and the unit and service. Thank you, Sondra.

Attractive apartment in a good location
This rental was very good value. The second floor apartment is much more spacious than I expected. It is nicely decorated, though the kitchen cabinets and upholstered furniture could use an upgrade. The location was a 10-minute walk from what I consider the center of Newport (Bannister Wharf). There are many restaurants just a short walk down the hill on Broadway. The owner/manager was very prompt, responsive and courteous. One bathroom in an apartment that sleeps 8 (there were only 4 of us) is not ideal but the owner did offer us the use of a second bathroom, which like the laundry room, is downstairs near the garage. I was told to bring my own sheets and towels which I was happy to do. Overall, this is a nice apartment at a good price. My family and I were comfortable and happy there and I would rent it again.

Great place...questionable service
We stayed a weekend in May, the house is beautiful, location incredible and the owners seemed nice and understanding...at first. During our stay we did damage a rug. The owner was there and said no problem, just take it to the trash...she didn't seem bothered and told a story of how she had done the same in college. So we took the rug out to the trash. Both days we had 5 people cleaning the apartment from top to bottom. An hour after we left she took all of our deposit (significant), claiming she had to hire a mover to take the rug out, and the apartment was disgusting. Obviously we wanted to pay for what we had damaged so all I asked for was a receipt for what she bought. I would have asked fora receipt whether it was a small amount or all of the deposit. She never responded. After 3 weeks of dealing with VRBO she was finally able to supply a receipt to them. If that's not strange, the receipt was for a rug that cost $700. Again we want to take responsibility for what we damaged, we own that. However wouldn't someone be a little more upset if they had to pay a lot out of their own pocket for a rug, instead of saying, "no problem." The whole situation was a little sketchy, so make sure if you stay here, you check the tags on everything and if you don't feel like cleaning yourself, maybe hire cleaners. But again, amazing space, perfect location.

Overall, the location of the house was very nice and the rooms were spacious. There was only one bathroom as access to the outside bathroom was not given. It was inconvenient to have to bring your own towels and sheets as you have to pay quite a hefty cleaning fee. There was only one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom. In addition, there was only one roll of paper towels and no napkins. Information regarding the need to bring these items was not mentioned in the description. In the kitchen there was only one bowl and some of the other glassware had stains on them. There was garbage outside by the garbage cans that looked like it had been seen there for a few weeks. In addition, there were very few mirrors in the house making getting ready a challenge. The location was great, however the accommodations and amenities could certainly use some improvement for the price you are paying.
