People were friendly. The location was great. Quite noisy as a restaurant kitchen was right outside our window and they were shouting orders until 11PM. Good breakfast.

My son and I stayed at the Jailhouse for 3 nights and had a ball! The staff couldn't have been any nicer. The room was terrific and the breakfast was outstanding. What a value for your money! A great location for walking anywhere in town and a short drive to the mansions. How nice it was after a long day of walking to come back to a nice hot cup of tea to unwind before bed. We would absolutely stay in "Jail" again!

The Jailhouse Inn in Newport,R.I. sits in the historic downtown area within walking distance of the visitors center, retail shops and the restaurants that line the docks. It is quirky because the have left the iron barred doors in the hallways from the time it actually served as a jail. The rooms will remind you more of a B&B with similarly small bathrooms but it is very well maintained. Parking is available off the the street and at the front door. the complimentary breakfast included everything from pancakes to cereal.

My fiance and I recently stayed at the Jailhouse Inn. We were pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness of the hotel and rooms. In addition, the breakfast was great with an assortment of choices from bagels to oatmeal to yogurt. The hotel was only a short walk to the shops and restaurants on Thames Street. We'll know to pack lighter next time as there is no elevator. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay!

The JailHouse Inn was just a really nice place to relax and get away from it all, even though everything you'd need is within a block or two. We loved the 'get your own breakfast and the tea/ coffee and cookies in the afternoon. There were no gym facilities, dining room or internet access available-just what the doctor ordered! Everything including great restaurants, cafes, shops, and sites just around the corner.

The Jail House Inn is located in a lovely area of Newport within walking distance to most restaurants, shops, and boating. There was never a problem with parking as the Inn provides free parking to its guests. There is a very nice continental breakfast. A front porch adds to the charm. The room had two queen beds and one half wall of sky lit windows. The windows are stationary and the blinds are in need of dusting & repair - detracting from the view and lacking Newport's ocean breezes. The A/C does provide a comfortable room temperature. The rooms closet is very small and stores a fan, iron, and ironing board. There is a dresser for clothes storage as well as a desk for writing. The small bath is clean and nicely done with a hair dryer for convenience. The towels however have lost their white luster. Printed Tour materials are available to all quests. The staff was pleasant and helpful with directions.

The Jailhouse Inn has gone to great lengths to retain the authenticity of a jail (last used as jail in 1983). We were completely satisfied with the 'conversion' of the jail to a B&B - the Bed was quite comfortable and the Breakfast (Continental) was qite generous. The Jail-house Inn's location is excellent for walking around Newport - it truly is a walkable town - with wonderful narrow streets and lots of alleys - giving one a 'sneak peak' of Newport's yesteryear. And it has lots of off-street, but safe parking - a real plus in Newport! All members of the staff we met were very accommodating - generous with good dining recommendations - and always available. The only drawback was that in Newport, they do not go to air-conditioning until Memorial Day and we had two warm evenings. Leaving the windows open created good air, but also allowed the street noise to visit us. We will go there again on another trip to the area.
