Owner of Pearls of Newport Hotel (finally) arrested for (allegedly) ripping off guests!

Ray Meyerson, the 74-year-old owner of the Peals of Newport boutique hotel, has been arrested by the Newport Police for obtaining money under false pretenses for taking a $1,144.13 deposit for rooms at the hotel but he never responded any further to the clients and never refunded their money when requested.

Meyerson will appear in court on February 22nd.

Hmm…could this be true? We’ve been hearing about this guy for years!

Let’s check some of the reviews.

Pearls of Newport Hotel

So all in all, probably not the best place to stay in Newport.
