My wife and I scoured Airbnb listings for stays in Providence, and narrowed them down until we chose this place. I can’t compare this place to all the other listings in Providence, but I will say that for our short getaway, we liked the place. I enjoy stretching my legs a little, and so much stuff is within walking range. We had the freedom to come and go as we pleased. Let me just give a rundown on what to expect here:
- comfortable bed, pillows, and blankets—love the wicker.
- stocked kitchen: at least 95% of the essentials for preparing a few simple meals—check the accommodations for the listing.
- you come off the street, up a flight of stairs, and you’re pretty much at the door.
- you can park on the street and pay meter parking, or paid parking at a parking lot, but my preferred was the parking garage that was appoximately one and one half blocks down the street (no, its not free)
- Plenty of food in the area: Blake’s Travern is literally underneath your apartment; The Cheesecake Factory is a MUST.
- Amtrak is nearby…I love my trains…!
- Walk to the Mall, or other nearby shops.
- A bit of night light and night noise: street lights right outside the windows keep the streets lit at night, but even with light blocking curtains, it would be difficult to get the bedroom completely dark. Blake’s Tavern music and nightlife can be heard at night as well.
- Clean, functional bathroom.
- Just the right size apartment for a vacation for two.
Scott was a great host! I prefered to mostly do things on my own, but he was quick to answer any questions. Thanks for hosting!
