Disliked: Cleanliness
We stayed 3 days and each morning there were several (4 to 5) roaches crawling around the kitchen. On the last morning, there was one crawling on the kitchen table. The landlord tried to spray on the second day, but they kept coming. Sorry, but this is nasty. For the price, we shouldn’t be dealing with this.

This property is not as pictured or described. The unit was “surface” clean, but didn’t look like it had been deep cleaned in months…maybe longer. Stains on furniture, the walls and baseboards had visible dirt, stains, marks and caked grime all over them. The pictures make this place seem renovated, clean, light and airy…the reality is very different. We had several small beetle/roach insects that were inside that we had to kill. In addition the inside of this unit clearly has ventilation/air issues. The air was so humid it felt “wet” no matter what we did. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was mold behind drywall because there is clearly an issue. The bedding always felt slightly damp as did our clothes in our suitcases. Even the hinges on the doors have visible rust and is starting to stain all around the door/walls from whenever issue is going on that is being neglected. This isn’t a “you’re by the beach” problem, we’ve stayed in Newport many times and this is very different.Our upstairs neighbors were so loud and we could hear their every movement.There is no beach view, but we knew that based on the description. It is a good location, but wouldn’t ever stay here again in this condition.It could be a great property if it was properly maintained. Now it needs a major overhaul.

NOT Smoke Free - Warning to Future Rentals

As soon as we walked in, we were overcome with a heavy stench of smoke/must. We had to wait until the morning to get a resolution, due to the late hour of our arrival. I double checked, & it WAS listed as nonsmoking. We were also surprised at how the place looked compared to the listing - photos were very well staged. Our main concern, however, was the smell. We all woke up with headaches in the morning. I reached out to the company. They apologized & stated that the cleaning crew did not report a smell and reiterated it was a nonsmoking rental. They stated that they could NOT move us to any other rental (despite having others available) because all their homes are independently owned. They also were not willing to give a partial refund. Their only offer was to send in their cleaning crew which we declined because 1) all our personal belongs were unpacked throughout the rental & 2) if they couldn't detect it the first time and their cleaning process didn't rid it yesterday, it was unlikely to this time. We reached out to VRBO to help but their money back policy did NOT apply to this rental. Other issues to note: cracks in tub, paint peeling in places, no bedding for the couch pull out, mold in the crease of bathroom sink and countertop, designated parking taken by other tenants. We didn't bother to send these issues to the rental company as we knew it wouldn't make a difference.

Great location!

Couldn’t have been a better location. The only negative about this cute place is, I felt enclosed. The pics make it seem really bright and airy. However, due to how close the homes are to each other, they needed to add a privacy fence around every window in the unit. We rented the back of the unit (B). It was certainly better than viewing another home but if you are looking to view out a window, rent the front of this unit not the back. The shower was a bit odd as the door where the faucet is - doesn’t open, so you had to be undressed or get your clothes wet when turning on the shower. Again, the location was super great so i was ok with the above mentioned items. And the

Charming

Loved this location! We were so close to the beach and could walk to so many restaurants and shops. But a couple of things to keep in mind- There is construction right across the alley and it woke us up bright and early Friday morning with a lot of banging. Not a great start to vacation! Also, the parking is very tight. There are 3 spaces super close together and it’s extremely hard to get in and out of load your car. One of the spaces is right in front of the gate and made it almost impossible for us to get out and around the car to our car. With that being said, I was thankful for a dedicated space that saved me from street parking! All in all, it was a really great vacation with very few complaints 😃👍👍

Disappointed

The pictures overstated the conditions of the Apartment. The furniture was very dated, the lighting was very poor, there was no instructions on how to run the entertainment (television etc.) in either room, all the toiletries were cheap, even the bedding was cheap and dated. Trying to find an xtra blanket was impossible. The room placement instructions were misleading, we thought we were upstairs and we were downstairs. One nice thing, the beach was beautiful.

Great spot near the beach

My son and I rented this place and it was adorable! You can park your vehicle and walk right downtown Newport or walk right to the beach. The kitchen was outfitted with all the appliances and dishes that we needed. Beach towels were supplied. I would definitely rent here again. Beachview was amazing and super responsive if we had any questions.
