We enjoyed staying at Michael's place, it was exactly as pictured. As he said there are some renovations that need to take place at some point but what they have done thus far is fantastic. The smart home system was quite neat. Our kids enjoyed turning out their lights before bed with voice command. It was nice having the blinds connected to the system as well. We didn't feel that it was hard to figure out at all, but even if we did have trouble, Michael has clear detailed instructions for operating everything. Noise at night was minimal, just normal city sounds. The neighborhood was walkable, and we felt safe. We went to Julian's restaurant for breakfast, it was delicious! We got there 5 mins after they opened and managed to grab the last table so get there early. We also went to Schasteâ, they were so kind, and it was also a delicious breakfast. All in all, we had a lot of fun exploring Providence!
