1. Sweet summer escape on Newport Harbor

"Super fun location, that made for a really fun 4th of July. Proximity to Fort Adams gave us the best vantage point for fireworks we could have had. House boat was very nicely made up for us, clean as could be. Comfortable bed, head was clean and functional. Water taxi was super convenient and easy to use, also allowed for awesome access to downtown Newport without needing to deal with cars or traffic. Fun to experience town from the perspective of a boater for once. Overall boat gave us...

10/10 Excellent

This is a nice Inn close to Easton beach on the outskirts of Newport. The famous cliff walk is approx 1 mile away. The rooms are well furnished although the fan in the bathroom can be quite noisy. They provide a good quality continental breakfast with a mixture of fresh and pre packaged breakfast snacks. The owner was friendly and helped carry our cases to the room. I would stay here again if I was back in the area.
