Phil’s place was perfect for our purposes! We had a concert to go to at Bolt Point Park and it was just 6 (!) minutes away. His apartment was absolutely spotless and just as it appeared in pictures. We brought our two dogs with us and there is a small patch of grass we used for them outside. There is a gas station and a Dunkin Donuts right across the street. There is also a diner within walking distance. The area where the apartment is in is quiet. There is some soft street sounds at night as it’s on a main road that I found comforting to hear. Phil is an excellent communicator. Prior to the trip, he took pictures of all of the steps we needed to take to check in…including the lock box and even where to park. It made the process very easy! We spent some time in Providence to see Waterfire…it was approximately a 10 minute drive. We also spent a day in Newport…it was about 40 minutes away. I highly recommend Phil’s place.
