Such a great stay for a weekend wedding in Newport. Instructions were clear for check in/check out and location was walking distance to Thames St. Unit was very clean & the bed was very comfortable- host Marie was communicating with us during our stay and gave us some great recommendations. Will definitely be back for future visits to Newport

Bright! But lovely.
Admiral Sims house is lovely: it's in a beautiful neighborhood, it's comfortable, and it's super well run. The little kitchenette in the room is excellent. The Britta pitcher with a fresh filter was an especially nice touch. The only off-note was that the lights in the room use zillion-watt bulbs and are quite painful if you accidentally turn one on. (Our solutions: In the room, turn on only one lamp and throw a sweater over it. In the bathroom, remove three of the four bulbs in the fixture and put them back at checkout.) Breakfast is on the light side and sugar-heavy; some whole wheat bread and a toaster would have been great. None of which should suggest the Sims house is anything less than wonderful. Except for the lighting and the breakfast, everything was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

It was a nicely updated unit in a beautiful old Newport home. The location is a nice neighborhood, conveniently walkable to everything around. The management was very friendly and responsive. All in all, a wonderful stay — we absolutely plan to choose this place again when we’re next in Newport!

Room is big with high ceiling and beautifully decorated with comfortable bed, big tv, and ample closet space. Owner is very thoughtful and setup extra bed for daughter. A small kitchen with sink, microwave oven, refrigerator, and coffee machine sufficient for quick snacks. Property is close to mansions which was why we visited RI. I would bring my own towels next time.

Impeccable, quiet, very nicely decorated, you can tell that the owners put a lot of time and effort into this place, and do it with love. Breakfast was delicious, banana bread and nutty walnut cake baked inhouse, accompanied with beverages. 2 blocks from Cliff walk.

Disappointed
We weren’t greeted on arrival, nor were we ever oriented about the facilities. The breakfast was barely a continental breakfast, grab’n go style, although GF pastries were provided (and I appreciate that). Housekeeping was by request. The room charge, given the service and lack of ambience, was unjustifiable.
