We stayed at the Admiral Sims on Catherine St. and it was great! The house and property were beautiful and in a good location. Easy walk to the beach, and a little bit longer into downtown Newport but it is doable. Next time we come back we will definitely be bringing our dog!

Lovely and convenient

Great location, walking distance to Easton's Beach and Cliff Walk as well as many stores, restaurants, etc. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. It got fairly cold for a couple of days and the gas fireplace heater did a great job of warming the room. The kitchenette was well stocked with dishes, utensils, etc. And the hosts are super friendly and helpful!

Love, love, love this place! The property is beautiful, as is the neighborhood and our room was lovely. Location was central and walkable to Cliff Walks and Thames St shops and dining as well as the Bellevue Ave. shopping district. My only complaint is 10AM checkout, which is earlier than any place we've ever stayed. That said, would absolutely stay here again

It was located in a very quiet and nice area. I was able to walk to the main downtown area where restaurants and the shopping are. This is my 2nd time staying overnight in Newport and my 1st airbnb experience was horrible. I'm so glad I found this place and I'll definitely stay here again on my next trip to Newport- one of my fav. town.

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.
