What is the color of a neutron star?

I'm wondering about the visual appearance of neutron stars up close. Do they continue to emit light like a white dwarf? Can cooled ones be gray or black?
The xray emissions from pulsars will not be visible to us.
Due to their high mass, they will bend light in a similar manner to a black hole. Thus a black neutron star will look very similar to a black hole.

Most of its light is radiated in as X-rays. The other spectrums have approx the same energy so a neutron star would appear to be white to our limited human eyes. Of course it would appear red in the infrared and others colors if we use filters. In short, we as humans see it as white but that doesn't mean that other Earth creatures or perhaps non Earth creatures who might be visually hardwired differently would see it the same. Which brings up the question as to which perceived color truly reprersents its essence. X ray detecting creatures could argue that it is the Xray spectrum which truly reopresents the neutron star's true "color" since it predominates.

So basically, the appearance of a neutron star to the human eye is white, but the neutron star emits most of its radiation in xrays.
