The Victorian home is large and charmingly maintained. The interior is a feast to the eye. The breakfast is bountiful, varied, well-seasoned and beautifully plated; I loved the elegant china, polished silver, exquisite linens, fresh flowers and warm breakfast greetings. Special touches made our stay very pleasant and our host, Chip was able to quickly anticipate and meet our every need and request. Chip went above expectations and was as warm and friendly as the fireplace he had lit for his guests each cool fall evening while we were there.
Our room was comfortable and the bedding was lovely, soft, cozy and warm. The ornate antiques and art collections were a delight. If we returned after dark, our attentive host left the lamps lit to softly light our way to our room. Refreshments were also available. The amicable house cat, Alice, was also a pleasure we enjoyed.
The location made it easy to get to anywhere in Providence or in Rhode Island itself, as it is near all the major highways as well as downtown. We were able to enjoy many of the sights and activities that were part of Providence and our host was a great source for local information. I would recommend staying here if you are in town for a few days, months or a year and do not want the typical hotel room stay. I would definitely book a room here again if we return to Providence.
Thank-you Chip for being a gracious host!
