Lodging While Visiting URI?

Our daughter will be attending University of Rhode Island in the fall and since we are from another state, we%26#39;ll be spending a considerable amount of overnights in the area over the next 4 years.

I would welcome some lodging suggestions. We don%26#39;t need to be in Kingston but would like to be nearby (i.e. Naraganset is fine, Newport is too far).

I%26#39;m not very comfortable with bed and breakfasts or motels, so we would prefer an inn or hotel.

Also, restaurant recommendations are welcome; we love seafood.

There is a Holiday Inn a few miles away that%26#39;s very popular with URI parents:

The Holiday Inn already mentioned is the only large-ish chain hotel in the immediate area and is very close to the campus. You can go to the URI website, Visitors page, and see other options. They%26#39;re mostly B%26amp;Bs. The Bay Voyage Inn in Jamestown may be one other option, and it%26#39;s in a beautiful location on the bay.
