NEVER EVER book here! It is a lie. We booked our summer vacation to Newport in January. All good reviews, had a pool for the kids & right in the center of Newport. We got nervous over the last month after reading scathing reviews. I called the resort and Airbnb to make sure everything was in order. We live 6 hours away. I even called the day before arrival. We closed our business for the week to get away, which which we have never done before. . We drove up early as check in is at 4 and we wanted to get alittle in before check in. They called at 2 to say there was a pipe burst and water main break by our unit. This is what they say to every bad review I’ve read. They offered us a place 40 miles away. That is not what we booked and would never have. We thankfully found another place for only 2 nights that was in an attic on our own. I have chronic back issues and the stairs were very hard to do as they were twisted. I had to have help. Still we were thankful as to not turn around and go home for our kids we’re so excited. We had to pay again out of pocket as there return policy is 15 days. They book places they do not have or will. I do not want this stressful event for anyone else trying to have a nice relaxing time with your family or friends. I am contacting Visa, the Better business bureau & have already told abnb to take them off the list. I have never had an issue with Airbnb but they were not very helpful at all. And this happens a lot. Shame on you. Fool me once my bad, fool me twice, they should know better.
