Must stay for a cute vintage getaway in the heart of Thames!
Pros:

The woman at the front desk checking me in was extremely welcoming as was the gentleman who checked me out. I had forgotten to tell someone the night prior I was all set with breakfast and when I was checking out, the gentleman was concerned and asked if it was alright I missed it. I told him I came down bright and early to let someone know I was all set but no one was around. I really appreciated that he cared. The room was very cute and reminded me of my nanas house growing up. Very cute antique vibes. The bright yellow queen room was very spacious with a two person seating area, large closet two different spacious drawers, a desk and nice bathroom. The parking in the back was a huge plus and I appreciate the gentleman who allowed me to park an extra hour to explore since there was still parking availability for incoming guests. The area is safe with a lot of cute shops and of course the iconic nitro bar basically next door! I really enjoyed my stay and can’t wait to book next time I want to stay in Newport!!

Cons:

Due to it being an older boutique building, the whipping winds made the hallways creek a bunch during the night. Nothing much you can do about that except grab some ear plugs. Everything else was fab!!

Pros:

Loved the location and the bread and breakfast feel.

Cons:

There’s nothing I didn’t really like about the property, I would have liked to go up to the roof and watch the sunrise and sunset.
