We stayed for 3 nights, housekeeping didn't come ever to make the bed, give us clean towels or empty the trash.

Hi Stephanie,I'm sorry you experienced a lack of service at our property. More information should have been provided, which would have helped with a housekeeping request. Thank you for staying with us and thank you for the feedback.

I love this hotel. I wish they had microwaves in their rooms

Response from Sue on 2 May 2024
Hi Brett,Thanks for your kind words and the suggestion. You may already know this but I'll mention, in case you didn't, that there is a microwave in the market next to the front desk that is available for public use. I know it's not quite the same but it is there if you need it!

Response from Sue on 2 May 2024
Hi Michael,I'm sorry you experienced traffic noise during your stay with us. I hope you'll be back another time and if you ask the front desk, they may be able to assign you a room further away from the road. Unfortunately, as convenient as our location is in the city center, it comes with the inconvenience of city traffic. We'd love to have you give us another try.

One night stay
The bed was really comfortable so that's a huge plus. The hotel looks a little older and could use some renovations. You can stream Netflix on TV, which most hotels offer now, but the regular cable didn't work. I like watching the news every morning and couldn't, which was frustrating.

Hi there,Thank you for staying with us and for the review. We did have an issue with cable when you were here (it has been fixed since) and I'm so sorry it wasn't working and that you missed your daily dose of news. That is frustrating! I hope you'll give us another try the next time you are in town

The room was not cleaned properly. As I started to turn down my bed,I noticed it was full of hair ( seemed like dog hair) and dirty blankets. Upon reporting to the manager, as the night auditor , wasn't helpful, she was apologetic and did what she could to make it right. I did. however have to sleep on the couch with clean sheets.

The location is convenient. The room was spacious. I woke up in the middle of the night to the strong order of weed and my neighbors tv, needless to say The walls are paper thin. The front desk didn’t feel like doing her job and when I left the parking lot they tried charging be $143 for parking.

Pros: Convenient location in the city center. Walking distance to everything - train station, restaurants, theaters, Providence Mall, Brown University, etc. Spacious, comfortable room with a coffee maker and refrigerator, a huge cozy armchair and even a table on wheels. Cons: Traffic noise at night. Outdated bathroom with fabric shower curtain that smells musty. The sink is located outside the bathroom.

Little Details Make A Difference!
I hate giving negative reviews! Several little things indicated a lack of simple attention to detail. CLEANLINESS WAS FINE. A simple sign on the ice machine could have said, "Out of Order. SORRY!" The parking gate was a fiasco. Something as simple as a post-it note giving instructions would be SO easy! Another post-it note saying "Room Card Reader Not Yet Connected. SORRY!" would have saved MANY minutes of frustration. SO, so easy to do! Why wasn't it done? This was NOT cheap hotel. We expect better.

Hi John, thanks for staying with us and for the kind review. I'm sorry that you didn't feel you got a great value. Demand in the city definitely drove rates up over the weekend and I can empathize with the predicament of needing to be in a certain location and paying more than I wanted. I hope that at least the location was good for you, that you had a good weekend, and that you'll be back on a weekend when there are some really great rates available!
