Across the hwy from the beach was easy enough access. This area is a 45 minute walk or 6 min drive from newport pier where most of the restaurants and shops are. I preferred being slightly away from that while still being able to access Eat Chow, Tide Poole, Vacancy Coffee and Cappy's with short walks. Staff was friendly and helpful! Beds were comfy, but showers could use an upgrade. Overall great experience :)

I stayed here years ago when the hotel was under different management. Unfortunately it is no longer as nice. Room had weird smell and plumbing issues, was awoken to water coming up the sink in the middle of the night. Sad because it was a nice place to stay as guests of the neighborhood residents, but i will be staying elsewhere next time!
