I loved Chip! Some people you just seem to click with and for me, it felt like I was staying with an old friend. Chip's very well travelled and interesting to talk too and made a real effort over making breakfast for me and chatting about various things. The house is huge and uniquely decorated and the bedroom private. The area is of mixed community and I felt fine walking alone on my way home at night. It's only about a 15 minute walk into the main downtown part of Providence with a Seven-eleven, McDonalds, KFC, etc, all enroute for quick snacks / drinks, etc. I would stay with Chip again, he was great.
