I’ll start with what I enjoyed about our stay. The property itself and our room were both newly renovated and well decorated. Lots of little details that made everything more inviting. Parking was simple, and the check-in process was quick.
Some things I did not enjoy: the room’s bathroom had a sliding barn door style door with half of the door being an actual glass window, so you could completely see and hear everything in the bathroom and the toilet/shower area - very odd. Also, when we first arrived, there were emergency sirens in the area for what seemed like 5 minutes straight. They were on and off for the next several hours relatively consistently. In our room (the Heddle Room) there were windows above the bed that poured a lot of light into the room at night with no shades/curtains to block the light out. A car wash across the street has flood lights on the whole night so you can see why this is a problem. The whole area is loud and we stayed on a Thursday night but there were non-stop vehicles, motorcycles, and cars stopped playing loud music at all hours of the night. I was woken up at 4 AM from some very loud music of what seemed like someone sitting at the stop sign right outside of our room blasting music for 2-3 minutes. I also would not have felt very comfortable walking at night to any of the local bars/restaurants (except for the rib place right next door).
Overall, we found the style and aesthetics of the property pleasing but found the actual experience of staying in the room and the surrounding areas very underwhelming. If staying in Providence again, we’d look elsewhere.
