Nous avons passé deux nuits dans cette hôtel lors de notre road trip.
Pros:

Hôtel située dans une vieille maison ce qui lui donne un cachet indéniable, accueil très sympathique, situation géographique parfaite, plage et restaurant à proximité à condition d'être motorisé.

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner n'est pas en rapport avec le prix de la chambre.

Good place to stay in Newport
Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House Inn! There was a great amount of parking, which made things really convenient.

Keith was very friendly when we checked in and was super chatty and welcoming. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and we especially loved having a water refill station available.

The breakfast was also really good and had a nice variety of options. We especially liked that they had juices available to grab and take with you, which was perfect for getting an early start to the day.

Overall, we had a great experience and appreciated all the little conveniences that made our stay more enjoyable!

Cons:

What We Didn’t Like:
The biggest downside was that the shampoo and conditioner options weren’t great, and the only ones provided were in the tiny hotel-style bottles. We also wished there had been a kitchen or hot breakfast option, as the breakfast was more of a continental-style setup.

Our room was on a higher floor and there was no elevator, which was definitely rough after a long day of excursions and lots of walking. It would be something to keep in mind if you have mobility concerns or are coming back after a busy day of exploring.

It's Newport, so it's going to be expensive, but the rooms were average at best.
Pros:

Great coffee!

Cons:

Jimmy Dean Breakfast sandwiches and a microwave oven? Seriously? $500/night?? We should have had a breakfast buffet!

Extremely disappointing! Definitely not worth even half of what we paid.
Pros:

The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable. I already provided my reaction to the breakfast.

Cons:

First of all there was a general musty odor throughout. We received no housekeeping services until we stopped at the
reception desk on the second day and requested clean towels. Because no one had entered our room, our bed was not made and coffee supplies not replaced. Nothing that we expected in the way of housekeeping was done. Secondly, we were
appalled by the fact that breakfast consisted of breakfast sandwiches which had to be heated in the nearby microwave and
various packaged cakes and bars. We found it unacceptable. I had brought a hair dryer from home, but when I attempted to
use the provided one it emitted a burnt smell. Needless to say, I did not use it. We chose this Inn for its proximity to downtown Newport and for its quaint appearance online. Because we were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary this past weekend, it was even more upsetting.

Superlative and budget friendly accomodations well suited for solo travel.
Pros:

Location was quiet- just outside the hustle and bustle of the downtown area yet only minutes away. Inn was exceptionally clean, staff was welcoming and helpful. Easy check in and check out. Nice continental plus grab and go breakfast featuring goodies from a New York bakery. Spacious, updated suite. Super quiet.

Cons:

Maybe add umbrellas to tables on deck for shade; a few lounge chairs for resting in the sun. Maybe add afternoon snacks and drinks.
