If not for the convenience of being next door to a shopping plaza and the low price, this would deserve negative stars. The whole place gave "crack den" vibes and smelled terrible. The smell changed several times, like some kind of awful Russian roulette of stink. The room was bare, filthy, and there were stains on the "clean" sheets. Worst hotel experience I could have ever imagined. Human trafficking awareness poster in the lobby was a great touch.

The property smelled like pot! The TV channels did not work, they said they had coffee in the morning but they ran out of cups! Room was dark and dingy and there was no shampoo samples. Back door to building did not work, had to walk around to front entrance to get in! Overall it was terrible!

This was perhaps the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed at. Stains on the carpets, walls, furniture. Weird smells. Loud guests up at all hours of the night. I would have demanded a refund but Newport was completely full the weekend I was visiting and there was nowhere else to go. Avoid at all costs!

It is a budget motel with few amenities. They did not provide shampoo or conditioner. We requested an extra towel and told there weren't any because the hotel was booked. The key cards demagnetized several times. The rooms smelled musty and wet.

Place is filthy, reeks of cigarette smoke wall to wall. Staff is friendly but inept. Absolutely disgusting. Towels in room were used, dirty, and whole room is subpar. And cigarette smoke permeates the whole building. Nonsmoking room but that is zero effect.

An employee double booked my reservation so when I showed up they told me that someone else had our room and that they had no more available so they turned us away and we had to get a $700 room somewhere else last minute. And then they still charged me for the reservation!! Still trying to get a refund!
