Entire Historic 5 Bed 5 Bath Inn Sleeps 17

Caring staff and owners, concerned for you and the environment, are at the heart of this Inn. Breakfast was in the room, the microvave and fridge making self service when you needed to eat supurb, Dietary requirements were carefully attended too, and I so enjoyed the special finds. Bamboo paper products also added to the care that goes into this Inn. As you would expect everything was pritine, the bed comfortable and the spacious environment relaxing. I don't have enough words of praise.

The Howland House is a small, unobtrusive, environmentally conscious historic inn situated on a mostly residential street in Newport. The central location is convenient, as it’s just a few minutes walk from restaurants, boutiques, the harbor, Bellevue Ave., Touro synagogue, and Newport museums. The parking space was much appreciated in this busy town. I stayed in the first floor “knotty suite” which was tastefully decorated, large and comfortable. The sitting room has a nice sized sofa, a big antique desk and comfy chair, an arm chair, and a small table with two cafe chairs. The fireplace is lovely but it is nonfunctional. In the bedroom is a good sized closet with robes and a safe, a very nice king bed, a bookcase with at least a dozen good books, a large TV, fridge and freezer, microwave and Keurig coffee maker. Provisions are 6 coffee pods, some packets of tea, several cans of water, a pint of farm milk and orange juice, 6 yogurts and four granola bars for self serve breakfast. The bathroom had a separate glass shower and a programmable “Bain ultra” whirlpool tub. The only issue I had was with noisy guests upstairs, as the old floors creak loudly above, and their late night conversations and laughter woke me up each night. I assume the upstairs suites would probably be quieter.
