I booked a room that slept 3 people (2 double beds). The room had one queen bed and a pull out couch. Expedia charged me extra for the 3rd person which I wasn’t aware of until check-in. The sofa bed (for the 3rd person) was not useable due to being extremely uncomfortable (all springs). When asked about this at check in, we were notified that a room with 2 beds would have been a chargeable upgrade. I was very disappointed.

Country Oasis by-the-sea and Newport
Looking for lodging around Newport, RI, where hotels can be pricey, I came across this gem of a 'country oasis' in Portsmouth near the water, and easy to get to. Arrived late as I had a busy day. When I opened the room door, the suite looked brand new, with a nice sitting area that was separated by a clean bathroom from the comfortable separate bedroom down the hall. A great place to stay!

My boyfriend and I decided to roadtrip through New England and we stayed here while in Rhode Island. It was really nice and right next to the bus stop that took us to providence and newport.

A Hidden Gem
Motel is tucked away from the main road, private. Grounds we well kept with many flowers, bushes and trees. Fire pit with chairs and outdoor grill. Room was simple and very, very clean with lovely decor. It also had a small refrigerator, microwave plus coffee station, desk and tv. The bathroom was spotless and offered many, many different amenities. What a hidden gem!

Disliked: Room comfort
Unpleasant
Room door did not have security view. One set of curtains that were not blackout. No sheer curtains so could not let natural light in without exposing view into entire room. Could not open windows because screens were ripped with big hole openings. Room very small and because could not open curtains, was like living in a basement. One flimsy desk chair, no other place to sit except in bed, which had deformed mattress. No hot water out of sink, even after running tap for 15 minutes. Warm water in shower after about 15 minutes. We visited on a Saturday and Sunday and all day both days a backhoe was running all day long, very noisy and disruptive. Had to leave the room both days just to get some peace and quiet. The room smelled weird as did the bedsheets, pillows and towels. It was an odd scent that stayed on our clothing. Not a fresh scent. AC unit was so loud, we could not hear tv even on full volume. We stayed in the room because sleeping in our car was not an option. We picked this place because of the good ratings and now sorry we stayed here. Our experience was unpleasant and we could not wait to leave.

Very clean property and reasonably priced. The rooms are nicely decorated and the staff is friendly. The location is right off of the freeway. There is some road noise but the A/C unit has a fan that will run on low for white noise.
