Staying at this hotel felt like being in a cute little cabin in the 1950's with the nicely decorated rooms. The service was warm and accommodating, making me want to return without hesitation. The location was excellent for exploring the city, right near prominent landmarks. The dining experience was satisfying with standout dishes, though I wished for a bit more variety. Overall, it offered a cozy and pleasant stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this charming B&B with spacious rooms containing good quality linens and unexpected amenities like a refrigerator. On the downside, the rooms got very hot, even in winter, leading to some noise issues when trying to cool off by opening the window.

Location

The location in Providence, RI, is excellent, with a cozy and beautifully decorated old-style house setting. However, it was unfortunate that it didn't feel safe enough for a woman alone to walk back from downtown at night.

Dining

8.0

The dining experience was delicious, especially the Apple Pie pancakes with sausage that were to die for one morning. The continental-style set-up offered good variety, but the gluten-free options were limited.

Facilities

The facilities at the inn were top-notch and well-kept, reflecting the commitment to providing a comfortable stay for guests.

8.6/10

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly spacious and came with a huge bed, desk, and even a cozy fireplace powered by gas. The air-conditioning kept the room just right for my September visit. The only downside was that the hotel was close to a major highway, so it got a bit loud at times even with the windows closed. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure my comfort. The location was perfect, within walking distance of the mall and downtown area, and not far from Brown University and the Capitol Building. The dining experience was a highlight, offering delicious food and the chance to meet fascinating people. However, the breakfast options were a bit limited. The facilities were great, with everything well-maintained. Overall, a wonderful hotel with just a few minor cons.
