Rose is a really fantastic host. She is so welcoming and caring and she makes it really easy to stay with her. The room and bathroom are clean and comfortable. It is easy to make it very private as well. Rose generously opens her kitchen to her guests and it is a really great place to prepare food, that is if you don't take Rose up on her offer of restaurant recommendations in Providence (she knows all the best places). Rose is really easy to communicate with both before and during your stay. The place is very convenient to Brown and RISD (less than a 15 minute walk) and also close to downtown Providence. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely. I really recommend staying at Rose's place! I don't think you could find a much better place to stay in Providence.
