Disliked: Amenities
It was a bit run down. It smelled like cleaning products really strong. we went to walmart and bought candles to help with the strong smell. I would stay in a better place if I had to do it over again. It would be worth paying more for a better place...

It is well documented in the reviews this is an inexpensive motel with tired furniture and no internet service. My 2 night stay was just fine. The room was very clean and all staff interactions were super friendly. Lobby opens around 10a and I would not try to check in after 9P. Will stay here again.

I was looking for a reasonably priced
This was wiped up from the bathroom floor
This is from the floor space between the 2 beds.
After my shower I walked around the room getting ready and this is the dirt that I cleaned off my feet before I could put on my shoes. The floors were sticky

It was affordable and good for the sleep at the hotel. No one was at the office in the morning at the check out time, so I needed to call. However they said to leave the key in the room. That should be informed in advance!!

For a motel and for the location, great value

Out of all the "Motels" I've stayed at, this was the cleanest. No internet however. You can connect to the wifi but none of our phones or tablets got internet. If you're looking to crash in Newport at half the price, I would recommend Harbor Base Inn.
