Nice area. Yummy baked goods each morning. We took our dog and they were very accommodating. The room was large and comfortable.

The property was well cared for, clean and in a very convenient location in Newport. Easy to get downtown, to the Beach and to the cliff Mansions. Staff was very nice.
Amy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Impeccable, quiet, very nicely decorated, you can tell that the owners put a lot of time and effort into this place, and do it with love. Breakfast was delicious, banana bread and nutty walnut cake baked inhouse, accompanied with beverages. 2 blocks from Cliff walk.

Super clean room. Room was large and very comfortable.
Jeanne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall I had a pleasant 4-night stay. The communication was contactless. I received texts regarding where my keys would be with an instruction sheet about my stay. The room was clean, bed comfortable, and I was happy to have a kitchenette. Downstairs there is no living room or dining room. All of the downstairs doors are closed. Breakfast is grab and go from 8:30 to 9:30. I would bring fruit to my room and have it for an earlier breakfast in my room the next day. If you need housekeeping you fill out a form and leave it in a jar downstairs. I think I met the innkeepers when they texted asking if they could store ice in my freezer, as their icemaker had broken. They were nice people, but what struck me during my stay is that no innkepeer introduced themselves and asked how my stay was. I'm a pretty private person but meeting the innkeepers and having a short interaction would have made a difference to me.

Great

We usually stay at the viking. This was a refreshing change. Host was wonderful. Check in a breeze. My husband was happy he runs hot. I was freezing sleeping and i didnt bring my blanket. Next time and there will be a next time i am bringing my blanket. Feels like home....

Beautiful property in a great location - walkable to downtown, mansions, and Cliff Walk, but far enough away to be quiet and relaxing. Loved the front porch and all of the little touches that made us feel welcome.
Haley, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at the Admiral Sims on Catherine St. and it was great! The house and property were beautiful and in a good location. Easy walk to the beach, and a little bit longer into downtown Newport but it is doable. Next time we come back we will definitely be bringing our dog!
Christian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely and convenient

Great location, walking distance to Easton's Beach and Cliff Walk as well as many stores, restaurants, etc. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. It got fairly cold for a couple of days and the gas fireplace heater did a great job of warming the room. The kitchenette was well stocked with dishes, utensils, etc. And the hosts are super friendly and helpful!
Bridget, 7-night trip

Very lovely room and bathroom. Bed was perfect for me but too soft for my husband. Perfect location, nice walk to town.

10/10 Exceptional

Love, love, love this place! The property is beautiful, as is the neighborhood and our room was lovely. Location was central and walkable to Cliff Walks and Thames St shops and dining as well as the Bellevue Ave. shopping district. My only complaint is 10AM checkout, which is earlier than any place we've ever stayed. That said, would absolutely stay here again
Benita, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was located in a very quiet and nice area. I was able to walk to the main downtown area where restaurants and the shopping are. This is my 2nd time staying overnight in Newport and my 1st airbnb experience was horrible. I'm so glad I found this place and I'll definitely stay here again on my next trip to Newport- one of my fav. town.

Such a great stay for a weekend wedding in Newport. Instructions were clear for check in/check out and location was walking distance to Thames St. Unit was very clean & the bed was very comfortable- host Marie was communicating with us during our stay and gave us some great recommendations. Will definitely be back for future visits to Newport

8/10 Very good

Bright! But lovely.

Admiral Sims house is lovely: it's in a beautiful neighborhood, it's comfortable, and it's super well run. The little kitchenette in the room is excellent. The Britta pitcher with a fresh filter was an especially nice touch. The only off-note was that the lights in the room use zillion-watt bulbs and are quite painful if you accidentally turn one on. (Our solutions: In the room, turn on only one lamp and throw a sweater over it. In the bathroom, remove three of the four bulbs in the fixture and put them back at checkout.) Breakfast is on the light side and sugar-heavy; some whole wheat bread and a toaster would have been great. None of which should suggest the Sims house is anything less than wonderful. Except for the lighting and the breakfast, everything was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
