Hotel berhampiran The Furniture Depot, Providence

This was a solo stay on April 20, 2023. I am a Hilton Honors Diamond member, and as such I enjoy trying different properties across the portfolio when I visit different cities. In Providence, I had not yet stayed at this Homewood Suites, so I decided to give it a try. It was a stopover on the way by train to Boston, so I found it extremely convenient, a few blocks away from the station. I was surprised that this hotel did not offer a Digital Key, because it would have allowed me to bypass the odd arrangement of the entrance on the street level and the front desk on the second level. So I had to stop at the desk to claim my plastic old school card key. The desk staff was professional and described the hotel and features, as well as mentioning breakfast down on the street level. My Diamond status was recognized. My room was the one I had chosen during the online advance check-in the day before arrival. As it was a suite, it was certainly spacious. But.... the HVAC was hard to control, if at all. The outdoor temperature went down to the low 40's, and so I would have liked to have my room warmer than it was. Turning the thermostat higher just displayed the higher temperature but did not make the temperature higher. Unfortunately this was realized when I was ready to go to bed, so I wasn't going to contact anyone to rectify it that late. I found the bathroom to also be spacious, with enough room to put my toiletries on the counter. Because of the room temperature I opted not to take a shower that morning, so I cannot vouch for whether there was any issue with hot water. Breakfast.... I did not expect much. It was buffet style but limited selection. I did have scrambled eggs. I was bothered in the morning before my planned departure from the room and well before check-out time by Housekeeping knocking on my door. I thought that they only come in between guests. I had to yell that I would be out within half an hour. All in all, a great location but the lesson learned is to check the temperature control earlier in your stay if possible.

A very well appointed hotel conveniently located in the historic downtown adjacent to RISD and an easy, if uphill walk, to Brown, with a number of decent restaurants nearby. The furnishings, bathroom, and linens were all of high quality. Despite other reviews I found the staff to be rather limited in their engagement versus the friendliness praised elsewhere, but nothing off-putting. The restaurant Bellini tries to punch a bit above its weight though for Providence it’s decent. Overall by far the best hotel in Providence but still a stretch from true five star luxury or a genuine upscale business hotel like Four Seasons or Mandarin Oriental.

Great location! Comfortable bed. No fridge or microwave in the room, which we expected. Nice breakfast!

We stayed here for one night to attend my brother’s graduation ceremony at RISD. The hotel is conveniently located and very clean as its a new facility in the town. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend people to stay.

Tempat letak kereta yang selesa, agak bising di sebelah lebuh raya

Setiap kali saya pulang ke rumah ia adalah Penginapan yang Hebat !!!

Love the pillows! Comfy bed. Clean bathroom. Nice shades to keep room dark to sleep late! Plain no frills hotel....don't see the point in paying extra for fancy rooms, bathrobes,in house restaurant,etc. Reasonably priced and within 10 minutes drive to downtown Providence. I prefer a cooked breakfast so we went to KP Grill Winthrop St. Rehoboth. Mass....maybe a 10min drive,easy to get to from hotel. Highly recommend. We usually try different places but this was so good we went there every morning. Check them out. Also Seven Stars Bakery, took bread and pastries home from there. They have numerous locations around Providence. Also a nice Italian restaurant 2mins drive from hotel , MidiCi Italian... .Highland avenue . Added a few pics

Close to the Providence airport. A 12 minute drive away from Providence downtown and Brown University

Baru-baru ini saya menginap di Hampton Inn di Smithfield RI. Ini adalah percutian tempatan satu malam untuk saya mempunyai sedikit masa bersendirian, menyelesaikan kerja, dan berehat. Saya sering tinggal di Hiltons tetapi tidak di lokasi tertentu. Langsung dari kelawar saya dapati orang meja itu pemarah, pendek dengan saya, dan tidak ramah, Belum lagi bahawa ketika saya tiba, saya mesti menunggunya di meja kerana dia berada di luar, Setelah menetap di bilik saya, wifi tidak dapat diakses. Saya mencuba beberapa kali dan tidak ada isyarat yang cukup kuat untuk menghubungkan komputer saya. Bukan sahaja ini mengecewakan tetapi juga tidak membenarkan saya menyelesaikan kerja yang telah saya rancangkan. Bilik di atas saya terdengar seperti boling sepanjang malam sehingga tidur tidak dapat dilakukan. Pada waktu pagi tv tidak lagi berfungsi, Nampaknya ada pepijat dengan jam yang tertinggal atau sesuatu. Kemudian, semasa pergi, tidak ada seorang pun di meja untuk diajak bercakap - hanya kotak untuk memasukkan kunci bilik plastik anda untuk membasmi kuman. Secara keseluruhan, ia adalah penginapan yang sangat mengecewakan dan saya tidak akan kembali,
