Hotel Providence
Yes. But toilet was not attached to the floor correctly, and same thing with the toilet seat. Breakfast buffet was free, but very disappointing. However, I would stay there again. Just get breakfast somewhere else. 🤔

Aloft Providence Downtown
The room was very clean and modern looking, staff is friendly, and location is good. But some of the design decisions are strange. A shower curtain for a bathroom door and a bathroom counter that is far too narrow.
