I will never come back. It is a shame because the hotel has been renovated and it is beautiful. There is no noise insulation between the rooms and floors. Other guests were slamming doors all night. This is not their fault as the doors are heavy and have no hydraulics. The guests above me sounded like elephants at 5 in the morning. It went on for 45 minutes. When I called the front desk to complain, the phone just rang and rang. Then I tried to turn on the A/c wall unit fan to drown out some of the noise and the unit would not turn on. It doesn't matter how clean and cute a hotel is if you don't get any sleep. When I explained my evening to the check out woman, she apologized but offered no compensation. I will not be returning to this hotel.

Overpriced and Underwhelming: Disappointing Stay
I recently stayed at the Wayfinder Newport with a large group, and unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to expectations or justify the high cost. While it’s clear they’ve done some renovations, the property still has the feel of an old, worn-down motel, and the updates seem only partial. Our group was split between rooms, with some in renovated spaces and others in outdated, musty rooms with old, dirty carpets. The rooms lack basic amenities like drawers or closets – a setup that might work for a quick stay, but for longer visits, the “Moxy-style” approach of keeping everything in your suitcase just doesn’t cut it. WiFi didn’t work any of the nights, and our AC broke down, which made it uncomfortable, especially since there was no phone in the room to call for assistance. We had to use our cell phones to contact the front desk, which, in fairness, was helpful, but it still added to the frustration. Overall, this property feels overpriced for what it offers, and I wouldn’t recommend it. It’s simply not worth it, especially if you’re planning an extended stay.
