My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The room was extremely comfortable and nicely furnished, but the lack of a door for privacy was a downside. The 4:15 check-in time was a bit inconvenient.

The room was extremely comfortable and nicely furnished, but the lack of a door for privacy was a downside. Some areas were in disrepair, such as the mirror, dirty soap areas, and hair.

Service

The service was quite accommodating to our family and other wedding party guests. The staff was not only friendly but also very helpful with various requests. The gesture of passing around champagne in the lobby was a nice touch.

Location

6.0

The location was a mix of positives and negatives. It was difficult to walk to the waterfront, but being close to the ocean and popular restaurants was a plus. The views from the hill overlooking the Harbor were magnificent, providing a true Newport vibe. However, the high price for the claimed four-star status and additional resort tariff detracted from the overall experience.

Dining

6.0

The dining experience was average. While the Easter brunch was delicious, the need for daily menu changes affected the overall enjoyment. The homemade jams were a pleasant touch.

Facilities

7.0

The facilities were acceptable, but an extra $20+ per night charge for unspecified amenities was off-putting.

I felt mixed about my stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully appointed and in an awesome location. However, they weren't ready until an hour after check-in time and weren't cleaned until the next day. The noise level was minimal, but there was an issue with a tattered American flag. Overall, a somewhat pleasant experience with some drawbacks.

The facilities were decent, with room service and valet parking available. However, the pricing for dining was not in line with the quality of food offered.
