My wife and I and a family friend needed a place to stay in the Federal Hill Area of Providence on a Friday night and this fit the bill. There were definite positives and negatives with this listing.
First the good: the owner's communication was great. All of my texts were answered and they sent detailed instructions on how to park and how to access the apartment. The location is directly in the center of Federal Hill, with amazing access to restaurants, bars, and other nightlife. When we arrived on a late summer evening, there were singers in the courtyard. The location immediately grabs you.
The apartment is a good size, with modern appliances, and large televisions in both the living room and master bedroom. There is also a rainfall shower in the bathroom.
Now the "room for improvement": The apartment was not up to my wife and I's standards for clean (my buddy had less of a problem with it). I think this stemmed mainly from our experience with the linens, which did not appear to have been changed on the bed. They also seemed to be worn out. It felt like sleeping on a pile of dirty laundry. We also noticed that the bathroom mirror had what appeared to be toothpaste stains on it. The HVAC vents were also visibly filthy. I didn't realize that we were directly above a restaurant either, and the clanging of dishes was audible well past midnight.
Overall, my wife and I did not sleep very well because of the conditions in the bedroom. My buddy had ear plugs and slept great in the other bedroom. Maybe my standards are too high, but overall, there's a lot of potential but also a lot of room for improvement.
