Harbor Base Inn

This location is very convenient to New Port. The room has two FULL size beds, we new that and it worked great for us. There are great food options very near Blue Plate diner is great, grocery shopping and a Dollar tree. The room had a microwave and a mini fridge. There was a free trolley/ bus #67 and 68 free from May to October 31 and if you ride it and validate your parking it is only 2.00 to park. Hop on and off all day and avoid the parking fees and traffic. You can ride past the mansions and get the feel of the town, hop off to do the cliff walk but be aware there is no getting off once you start, you may want to walk and then turn around and go back to where you started. The staff isn't hands on and could be it was October and the season was at an end.

I wish they left some chairs out front. I like sitting underside no matter the weather.

The Harbor base is a modest and very clean motel, with good sized rooms,microwave and nice refrigerator in each. Housekeeping services were provided daily. Coffee and tea were available each day( no breakfast). Staff/owner were helpful, friendly and available. We had easy access to the transportation center and free trolleys around Newport. We could walk to the excellent Coddingtom Brewery and the Newport Craft Beer and Distillery was also near-by.

Internet service was unreliable. However, staff here again did their best to accommodate.

.Nice staff. Great price in a very expensive area. Nice bathroom and TV with variety of channels. Contractors unwinding outside till about 10pm but they followed the 10pm directive for quiet time.

The floors need to be mopped with hot soapy water. This Motel is nice but if you go barefoot and your feet are black, it will turn people off. The man cleaning the rooms was working hard but had lots to do.

Everything that you would want in the motor Inn. For me, a good nights sleep is most important and how I base my readings. the layout of the motor lodge is great. Even though it’s very convenient and off the road, the units are behind the road and as a result very quiet night sleep. Not sure why it has lower ratings, as it is as advertised, no-frills, straightforward, and much more affordable than places just 10 minutes away.

For a quick stay it was fine.

Check out was strange. No one in the office, you left your keys outside on an air conditioner.

It was very clean

There are a few little things (details) that management should pay attention to. Step back a look at the bigger picture. Clearly they are working hard to improve the property and grow their business. But nothing that impacted it in a negative way 

We got what we were looking for-clean beds and a shower.

Price. This hotel was priced on the lower end of the scale but I felt is was still pricey considering there was no cofee maker in the room, breakfast was not included and the facility is dated. We would have liked more outlets to plug into. Toilet was noisy when flushed.

When I was booking through Booking.com it said the room I got…2double beds….was the last room available. Like the hotel was booked up. But obviously after arriving and next day, plenty of rooms were available. I would of booked a king bed for my husband and I. Was disappointed about this.

Great room plenty of space, clean bathroom and fresh towels every day, staff was great and very friendly.

It would be great to have a little table and chair to sit at. The lighting in the room is basically one bulb. The TV was older and kind of hard to see the picture.

It was very ok, I expected something much worse for this price. Really liked the location as it was super quiet during the night, but at the same time short drive to center.

Wifi quality in the room was so-so at best.
