Clean, well maintained little place to stay. Walking distance to beach and restaurants. Continental breakfast and plenty of complimentary snacks were a plus. Bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. Full size tub, need to step up and over to get into shower.

Nice place. I was there for the New Port Jazz festival. It’s convenient for that. It’s a decent hotel. Clean. Quiet and located well. I would have like “newer” towels.

Happy, Easy Stay
Great experience, would recommend. Check in is early at 2:00 which is super convenient for us as travelers. Great location by the beach, close enough to walk to sites! Lots of snacks and food available, good fresh food, not commonly seen while traveling always available!

I'd stay here again. We arrived late in the evening, and the staff person (owner?) was very accommodating and helpful. The room was clean. The breakfast isn't "fancy" but it was a nice touch with lots of options and we enjoyed it. Easy parking. It wasn't cheap, but it seems like a good value based on the area.

Excellent overnight stay
We had an excellent overnight stay. The hotel looks recently renovated. The hallway carpets were spotless. The bedroom and bathroom were good-sized and in excellent condition. There was a cute seating area on the 2nd floor where we stayed, which has three rooms. So if a family or group booked those rooms, there's a little common area to gather in. The office area serves as the breakfast area. It's compact but well-organized with a couch, TV, ice machine, hot and cold water dispenser, coffee, tea, a refrigerator (stocked with yogurt, milk, juice, butter, jelly), dry cereal, oatmeal, English muffins, Pop Tarts, fruit, muffins, cookies, granola bars -- so many choices! Rhea's is in a great location. It's a short-ish walk to Easton Beach, and just beyond that is the famous Cliff Walk. There are several restaurants and stores very close by. We highly recommend this beautiful little hotel and would not hesitate to stay there if we are ever visit this area again!

Definitely a hidden gem!
Rhea's is a true little gem. The Inn is remarkably clean. The staff is truly friendly and happy to have you there. It has a very homey feel and is very laid back, friendly feel. It is now my first choice to stay when I'm in the area. Also, if you're into supporting the small independent businesses, this is definitely worth your patronage. I'm looking forward to staying at Rhea's again
