perfect location
I used to be a Newport resident and invited some extended family for a get-away. This place was perfectly located, great parking, we all had our privacy - most rooms had a coffee station and fridge and private bathroom. The kitchen is separate - you have to walk thru a couple of bedrooms or go around house to access it which was not a problem for us. We had an elderly lady with us and she was very comfortable. Excellent place!
