You get what you pay for
The room was comparable to the price however, the room door required slamming to completely shut and lock. The bathroom could use updating and was on small size. The sleeping area was clean and sizeable, the staff was friendly and pleasant. The location was great.

Short drive from hotel
The shopping area on Thames along the waterfront is filled with upscale to quaint shoppes...a great way to spend the day and then enjoy a great dinner at one of the many top quality restaurants in the area.

Pretty depressing but bearable
The hotel was right off the highway and shabbily decorated, and the staff was a bit ragged and unprofessional - a let down, especially considering that the rate was not cheap!!

Reasonable Rates, comfortable stay!
Just an overnight, Room was comfortable. Dinner in the restaurant was tasty (almost too much food for the price. Room service was a pleasant splurge. Slept very well! Service was quick and convenient.

My review of Best Western The Mainstay Inn
The room at the Best Western Mainstay was a good size room. The hotel was just a shirt drive away from downtown Newport.

Family Friendly
The Best Western Mainstay was clean, comfortable and only a couple of miles from downtown Newport. The only suggestion I would make is to go with at least a room with a queen sized bed. The full size beds seemed very small. The bathroom was a good size and was very clean.

Short drive from hotel
It's only a short drive to anything you might want to do: shop, sightsee, entertainment, beach. We found it very easy to venture out and not lose our bearings. The location of motel is good spot to get back to.
