  4/5

  My stay was mostly fine. Location is great as it's an easy 10–15-minute walk to Thayer Street while also being in a nice quiet neighborhood. I wish the listing had mentioned that the bedroom was in the lower level of the condo, it might have changed my decision to stay here. The condo's main entrance sits on the first floor of the building, so the bedroom level sits a bit underground. The condo doesn't have a TV, although they do state that in the listing, I just did not see it in there. There are 2 beds in the bedroom. One is a full-size bed, and one is a twin. One of the beds is overly soft and the other is overly hard. It was a bit difficult to get comfortable in either bed. The last night, I decided to just sleep on the futon, which ended up being much more comfortable. Overall, it's a cute place, but not sure I would stay here again.

  Unfortunately we never stayed at this property because when we arrived in the morning the place had not been cleaned. We assumed that because we were able to check in early, it would be cleaned later in the day. When we arrived in the late afternoon, it was still uncleaned. We were told there was a miscommuication with the cleaning crew and they were unable to clean it that day, but we could have access to sheets and towels in case we wanted to stay. We ended up having to find a hotel since we weren't about to make the beds ourselves. My 80 year old mom was already too tired to deal with this. Hopefully future guests will not have this happen to them.

  From the Owner: "My deepest apologies for this unfortunate situation. Our cleaning crew mishandled the schedule, and I was not informed until the following week.
  
  I truly regret the inconvenience this caused. I hope you were able to find alternate accommodations in Providence and still enjoy your time in our beautiful city."
