The room was nice and clean (although there was a slight musty smell due to the air conditioner). Mini-frigde, microwave oven, toaster and dishes available. Extra towels available on demand. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Jamestown is right in between Newport and Narragansett which was very convenient for us.

Weekend with college friends
The property is in a lovely spot. Jamestown is a cute, small town that is easy to walk to. Our check-in was a little confusing. The man at the desk knew about us, but seemed confused on how to check us in so it took a while. Our room was nice. Very clean and quiet with a nice balcony to look over the water and all the boats. We only had one issue. When we returned from spending the day out on a boat, our fire alarm in the bedroom was beeping. We called downstairs and were offered another room to move to. They said there was no one to change the battery. We didn’t want to pack up all our stuff to move so my husband was able to pull the alarm down and it stopped beeping.
We definitely would stay at the property again.

Great location and view!
We had a great stay. The room seems to be recently renovated. It’s just a half mile into town and we rode our bikes in for a few of our meals and shopping. There is a nice salt swimming pool and a good restaurant on premises.
