Jeanne's home was the perfect place for us to stay for our weekend trip in Wakefield RI. The downtown area was a quick 5 min walk away, where you'd find quaint shops, restaurants & cafes, and arts/theater spaces (where we attended a friend's wedding). En route, there is a scenic canal and bridge where we picnicked on a bench. Another quick walk along a wooded bike path took us to the grocery store and a 24 hour CVS. The location could not be more ideal for exploring the town.

Aside from that, Jeanne was a warm, welcoming, and gracious host. She was quick to respond to messages, and coordinated with us for check-in and check-out to meet our travel schedules. The bedroom and shared bathroom were clean and well-stocked with towels, amenities, and guide maps for places to visit in the area (e.g. the beaches, all within a 15 minute car ride away). Jeanne appointed us our own mini-fridge and cupboard space in the kitchen. The other long-term student boarders were all friendly and respectful, and Jeanne's two cats were affectionate and easy to get along. We had a wonderful stay in town!
