***If you book online make sure you “click” $1 for parking in their parking lot because its $22 if you pay at the branch****
Overall, it was a good trip. If you want to walk to the beach it is about 30 minutes, nice walk. The Rooms were big and clean and the breakfast did not disappoint. It was very similar to the branch we stayed in New York, so they got some kind of system. Eggs, Turkey sausage, omelet, cinnamon rolls,pancakes. We were full until lunch.

Stood here this past weekend. It was my first time, but won’t be my last. My gf and I were greeted by a friendly front desk. The hotel property was clean. The room was nice. The pool area has plenty of space with a cabana. The area is pretty central in Newport and 10 minutes away from Huntington.
