Horrible! Needs to be condemned!!!
Pros:

There’s absolutely nothing i like about the place other than the staff was friendly

Cons:

The beds were all soaking wet! They said it was due to the condensation of the ac ummm not that wet! So the second room was just a little damp we took it we were too tired the bath room had black hair all over the floor i used the second beds comforter on top on my comforter so we wouldn’t be wet in the morning. The ceilings had mold on them!! I don’t know how this hotel is still in buisness! My husband heard others complain about the rooms and there beds too! The whole hotel smelled like mold. I was already sick when i got there i left sicker! There was a van with homeless people in it behind the hotel not a great look either

Permanenza in Newport
Pros:

Il prezzo ottimale per un soggiorno "mordi è fuggi" e la posizione relativamente vicina al centro

Cons:

La stanza non era aerata e appena spento il condizionatore che rendeva inabitabile la stanza, l'umidità è condensata inumidendo il coprimaterasso (non c'erano lenzuola) rendendo quasi impossibile dormire

Comodo per chi ha l auto a noleggio
Pros:

Struttura dotata di parcheggio esterno, comoda per chi come noi è impegnata in un road trip.
La grandezza delle camere.

Cons:

Abbiamo trovato le lenzuola umide! Il bagno fatiscente e privo di servizi di cortesia (sapone per le mani e per la doccia)

Unsanitary conditions, would never stay at motel 6 again.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Rooms were dirty, found a dog bone in our bed by the pillow. The beds looked slepted in. Walls had stains like bloody hand prints. Pubic hair in the tub. Yellow stains on tubs like cigarette burns. Room smelled like Marijuana and cigarettes. Room had unfinished repairs. Asked for new sheets waiting 20 min they only had one set for us for 2 rooms with 2 beds in each. Changed sheets in the bed with dog bone. We slep in out clothes and didnt shower cause the place was gross. Mind you, it was 4 bikers staying here and we all wouldn't shower in such a place.

overnight stay in August
Pros:

We picked this location because we had a wedding in Newport, and with everything being so expensive, this was by far the most affordable option. We booked a two-bed room (Room 204) for a single Saturday night in August. I paid $264, and I booked several months in advance. By the time of our stay, the price had gone up to around $340, so I would definitely recommend booking well in advance if you’re looking for a more affordable rate.

I’ll be honest—I was extremely apprehensive about staying here after reading the reviews. I even brought my own linens and a roll of cleaning wipes just in case.

That being said, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience. The woman at the front desk was extremely nice and helpful. I called ahead, and we were able to get into our room early, which was greatly appreciated.

Upon arrival, I immediately checked the bed and room thoroughly, and I did not find anything questionable or concerning. The room was basic, but I felt comfortable and safe during our stay. One minor inconvenience was that the bathroom only had one body towel, but it was easy enough to ask for more.

We also had no problem with parking. Admittedly, we had two friends meet us there and leave their cars at the hotel, and the four of us took an Uber to and from the wedding. Uber was extremely easy to get both ways and was surprisingly affordable, so transportation was not an issue for us at all.

There are permanent residents at this location, so it does have more of a residential/motel feel than a traditional hotel. It is definitely not a five-star hotel, and you should set your expectations accordingly. However, based on my experience, I did not feel unsafe or that the accommodations were unsanitary.

If you go in expecting a basic, safe, and reasonably clean place to sleep—especially if you’re looking for an affordable option in Newport—I would recommend it.

Great location. Needs to be cleaned up and updated.
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

It was very old and rundown. I’m at the Owner that bought the property a week ago. He was working on fixing it and getting it ready as new management.

Pros:

It was in Newport

Cons:

The room was no smoking but it reeked of smoke. Our clothes still smell and the smell came into the room. It would have been nice to have some shampoo. The towels very thin.

Eu não sei se essa acomodação deveria ter 1 estrela.
Pros:

Localização.

Cons:

Honestamente, o lugar é horrível! O quarto tinha um cheiro muito ruim, de sujeira; o chão parecia não ter sido limpo há vários dias e o chuveiro não funcionou.
