Best Downtown Location!! Monthly 2-BR Apartment with AC/patio/grille/parking!

Very pleased

When we first booked this home (advertised as monthly only and "new") when it was first listed last summer, there were no reviews. And so, here is our review to help those looking to make their vacation choices. First, with the "good": If you want to live a local, this is the place! Extremely walkable to what you expect as a tourist in Newport - harbor, mansions, shopping, and restaurants. AND all the amenities of a small cottage with grocery stores two blocks away! Communication with the property manager was very easy: she coordinated a lock-box for us, quickly brought cleaning supplies that were missing and replaced broken items at the start of our stay. The "bad": cleaning service is not provided during the stay (this is implied in the listing), appliances are old and not functioning/functioning well (disposal doesn't work, washer has a very musty smell even after several washer cleanings, many of the bins in the fridge are cracked so be careful opening & closing). Lastly, when we arrived the home was "tidy" but not cleaned, especially the bathroom; which we promptly shared with the property manager, resulting in the quick delivery of cleaning supplies.
