We had a wonderful stay at Alison's place! It is just as described. Alison is an excellent communicator and very responsive to any small problems or questions. The detailed area guide materials and well supplied kitchen and bathroom were also greatly appreciated. It is in the lower level of a very old house, so it does have very low ceilings and some old-house character/features, as described. The location is really excellent, with downtown and Brown Univ and other intriguing neighborhoods in close proximity. We walked all over. Don't miss the RISD Museum, the walkways along the river, and the broad range of excellent restaurants, all within easy walking distance. We recommend the place and hope to stay there again. Thanks, Alison!
