Thank you for the great review! We're glad you enjoyed the space, the neighborhood, and had a smooth check-in. We'd love to host you again!
Apartment is in a great location - right in the midst of several good restaurants, and a few blocks from a nice playground/park. Recent renovation was nicely done. Kitchen is well equipped, towels and linens are good quality. There was a minor issue with hot water that was promptly fixed by the owner, who was very friendly. Overall, a great experience and we hope to be back soon.

Thank you so much for your review! Our guests' comfort is a top priority for us. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to your next visit!
The description of the listing is very on point. The interior was very well-designed with beautiful details. Solid selection on the furnitures especially the mattresses, firm and supportive. My family members were very satisfied with the sleep quality during their stay. The only two things that I would like to add is the stairs were a little steep. Take that into consideration if your party include elderly people that might find steep staircases to be challenging. Help them with the suitcases. Another thing was that there was a live construction site right next to the property. Fortunately, only 1 out of 4 days during our stay was sunny, so we only woke up to the construction sound at 7am for the first day.Other than that, an amazing experience here in Providence.
