This is a VERY SPECIAL place. I stayed here for several weeks while waiting on my apartment and from the moment I arrived, Erlinda treated me like chosen family. Not only is she warm, vibrant, and attentive to the needs of her guests, she also takes great pride in the beauty and rich history of her home: a charming Victorian manor in the heart of Providence appointed with gorgeous woodwork, decorative high ceilings, and an original pull-chain toilet(!!). The rooms are large and spacious, each having a unique identity (I stayed in the Victorian Room) complete with a lovely welcome note, fresh flowers, and modern amenities: A mini-refrigerator (filled with water), flatscreen TV, and solid Wifi/Internet. The community kitchen is, to say, an AMAZING space: well-stocked and organized with a HUGE, period-piece gas stove (and if you're lucky, Erlinda will be cooking!). The bathroom, while also shared, is meticulously cleaned and always well-stocked with fresh towels and toiletries. And did I mention the outdoor garden area?!! I spent many nights eating al fresco and building fires in the vintage chiminea---such fun at this time of year! As I stated initially, this is a VERY SPECIAL place: A beautiful house with a life of its own that, in some strange way, chooses its guests, so if you're reading this far, rest assured you NEED to book!
