Don’t Be A Sucker, Stay Elsewhere!
Very disappointed, told manager he should be ashamed of putting anyone in that room…Room L.!!! Upon entering our room, we were overcome with a super strong unpleasant urine odor. The entire room was a disaster, a huge hole in the ceiling covered with some plexi boards and nails, and the carpet was rippled in several places, from where it had been wet. By far, the bathroom floor urine oder was the worst!! I called the Wynstones manager and he totally played dumb. Acted like it was impossible that the room could be that bad. He offered to have someone come up with room spray!!! We were late for a wedding, so we didnt have time to wait and change rooms. I WILL NEVER RETURN! We left before breakfast, couldn’t leave fast enough!
Water damaged hole in ceiling!

Beware of the shenanigans when offered a free room upgrade. It was in fact a room upgrade, just not at the booked location. Location was the primary reason I booked Wynstone and we ended up on the other side of town. Knowing the town, not a huge issue for us. But a little too sneaky for my taste.

Horrible Manager, Rick Ferrik. Not a good man
The owner, Rick, stole from us! He refuses to issue us a refund that I have a receipt for. He ran it offline and refuses to make it good. He refuses to deal with my refund and constantly makes excuses to not issue me my refund. We were on our anniversary weekend. It was the first time we had been able to celebrate it in 4 years and it was particularly a special event for us. Unfortunately we spent the one and only day that we had to spend together, moving our room to the the proper room and then having to go back to his office at a later time of the day to get the bogus refund. I have the slip and it was ran offline. We paid a lot of money for a room we did not want or order online and a refund was due to us. He is ripping people off and this is unacceptable. Hotels.com should throw his listing off their site! This person, Rick Ferrik, owns the LLC and runs the Inns. He knows there is no recourse for me than to take him to court. I filed a complaint with the Newport police dept. and will see how far that goes.

I really liked the jacuzzi tub, bathroom and cable- breakfast cook was fantastic, limited drink choices, lots and lots of cobwebs, no microwave- we brought leftovers back from the Red Parrot (which were to die for!) and we weren’t able to warm them up or save them for the next day due to limited space in the 1 refrigerator

We booked one night and arrived around 2pm on the day. when we arrived at the hotel the door was locked so we kilked about one hr and came back for check in. No info about parking so we did street parking. The door was locked again and looked like normal house locked since there was no sign or anything like hotel. We ran into a cleaning lady and she said that there is a different house for check in. Until she found the address we didn’t have any info about it. It was very hot steamy weather and It took so long to find the main house and parking space. Very confusing to check in with no info at all. And the rolm we stayed was very noisy at night and very narrow space. The bed was placed in right behind the door. That means as soon as i step in there was a bed behind the door. A carrier cannot get in through. We paid $290 for one night and this is one of worst. Very very disappointed.

Good location, but not great B&B
Location was excellent. Easy walk to harbor area and Belleview St. However, it was on a very noisy corner and the room was not that great. Bathroom was OK. It had a large jacuzzi tub, if you like that (I don't). Room not that clean and not much room for a suitcase. There were no night tables. There was a iron, but no ironing board. They did bring one of those small table top boards, but there was no place to use it. Also, we went looking for water and there was a large spring water bottle in the dining room, but it was empty.. The breakfast was fine. For the money I would stay in a hotel. Parking was very tight and gravel.

The Wynstone was great! Employee Rick called a few days before our arrival to explain where to check in, when we could check in, etc which was really nice because check in for wynstone is in another location. We had planned to arrive to Newport early Saturday morning to visit tennis hall of fame before mansions, and we were allowed to park at the wynstone for the day for free which was a plus, and we’re given our room keys at 10 in the morning (and upgraded to king room!, we had booked a queen, with no extra charge). Also when we arrived we were greeted by Rick who offered us breakfast before we went about our day. He was also very knowledgeable on whole Newport area and gave us some dinner tips. Room was on the third floor, and it was very clean and charming. Breakfast the next morning was delicious and convenient. Overall it was a great stay, would definetly consider staying there again!

My wife and I decided at the last minute to drive to Newport for New Years eve and found the Wynstone had rooms available. We've never stayed there before and the fact that they had a fireplace and Jacuzzi in the room was made the decision easy. We were very happy with thw service and the room was great. We would stay there again if we had the opportunity.

This hotel should be flagged as seasonal and not be booked in the winter. The heat is all but non-existent and space heaters just won't cut it. Room was 55-60 degrees. A breakfast room at 55 degrees is too cold, no matter how many layers you put on. The toilet kept running and room had a shabby feel. Needs some TLC. Service was great.
