Beautiful apartment. I stayed in bedroom and son stayed in the living room/2nd bedroom. Both of us were comfortable. Off street parking. Conveniently located to Brown. Great communication with the owner.
The apartment is a cute and clean attic apartment. The host is very attentive to our needs and gave great recommendations for cafes and restaurants. The neighborhood was perfect for my granddaughter who enjoyed the park across the street. I would definitely stay here again!
The apartment is adorable and everything was clean and up to date. We traveled from Rhode Island to Boston, Salem, Mystic, down to Newport... great central location to explore the area!
Overall we had an awesome stay! The unit has about 34 steps to get inside and upstairs so definitely take that into account when planning your stay. The apartment was very nice and comfortable. The bed and futon could stand to be replaced due to poor cushioning. Other than that we had no issues with the property! The owner was easy to contact and responded very quickly! Would definitely visit the area again!
Clean and cozy. Close to Brown which is what we wanted. Good parking. Communicating with the host was fast and easy. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you Bruce
This is a great spot in the College Hill area of Providence! We drove up for the weekend to visit friends who live nearby. The onsite parking spot was very convenient—and because of the location, we were able to leave the car in the driveway and walk most places during our trip. The apartment itself was clean and well-kept. There are a fair amount of steps up to the top floor where we stayed, but for two young able-bodied people, it was no problem. Bruce was also a wonderful, friendly host—very communicative and flexible. Thank you!
It was wonderful apartment and a wonderful house however, there were a few things if I had known I would’ve passed or at least felt better about number 3 flights of stairs to the attic number two the attic kept hitting my head, couldn’t stand to go to the bathroom and whatever that was on the bed perhaps we should invest in a nice mattress, but it was a wonderful apartment. Probably wouldn’t stay there again though.
This property is so beautiful and in a very convenient location. Bruce was very responsive when I realized I had forgotten to tell him ahead of time I needed access to the travel crib (my fault, not his!). I would stay here again!
The location of this property is perfectly situated on College Hill - very walkable, quaint, well appointed and quiet. The owner had excellent communication and attention to detail. Highly recommend this wonderful spot!
My husband, 1 year old baby and I had an excellent stay this past weekend. It was a relief to have such a clean and open space to be - especially with a little one. Vibrant and tasteful decorations add a quirky flair. One thing I'd recommend is packing light so that it's easier to navigate the stairs coming up to the third floor. Communications were smooth and friendly and the neighborhood is ideal. Great spot for a small family to enjoy!
Brad was a very helpful host who communicated clearly and made sure we had everything we needed for the stay. The space was as described and met all our needs.
Beautiful house in the heart of Providence, but had those old New England house funky narrow stairs. Everything was clean, but there were a few issues. The futon sofa couch is coming apart in the back so we threw the futon on the floor to use as a bed. We never could get the t.v. streaming service to work despite using the password several times. So, some things great, some things not.
