It is a very nice, cozy, conveniently located hotel. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Check-in and checkout were super easy. The breakfast that's included in the stay is wonderful, too. Fresh fruits, chia pudding, homemade omelet bake, yougurt... Thank you! Highly recommend!

enjoyed my stay. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. I felt like i was staying in a home, not a hotel room. Loved the variety of breakfast items, the Chia seed pudding my favorite. Coffee was excellent offered all day a bonus. Home made cookie at night was a nice way to end the day. The staff was friendly and and there whatever you need. i look forward to staying there again. This is HOME.

Clean and spacious king suite. Comfy bed. Parking was tight. Area around place not visually appealing, nothing but parking lots. Close enough to restaurants to enable you to walk into town. Several good restaurants nearby.

Room was not very clean and there were lots of little items such as rugs, furniture etc that needed repair and made the place look tacky because they had stains or pieces falling apart. It was also very expensive, especially for what you got. Would not recommend staying, only good thing was location.

Terrible stay at the Attwater

Parking was difficult. A few tight spaces adjacent to the hotel. If full, required to park across the street. When I went to park across the street there was an event and no available spaces. Waited until someone left. As to the room, the bathroom sink was not working, would not drain. Informed management and was told it would be fixed. It was not fixed. The bedroom had one window with a broken shade and the other was missing. Only three hangers in the small closet. No in room coffee makers. Thankfully I am in good shape as I was required to carry my large suitcases up to the third floor. Have no idea how an elderly person could manage this issue. Last but not least, at 2:30 in the morning the fire alarm went off. No staff on hand to inform guests on next steps. Guests all ended up in the first floor living room, unclear on what to do. The Newport Fire Department showed up to look into the matter and they were the ones to tell the guests that it was all clear to return to your room. Nobody from the hotel was there to assist guests or for that matter address questions from the Fire Marshal. When the alarm went off I called the hotel’s emergency number and got a recorded message saying that the office was closed and to leave a message. To pour salt on this wound , in the morning when I checked out, no apologies from the team managing the front desk. At a minimum I should have been offered a discount for all of this nonsense.
