We were looking forward to a four star hotel and were pretty disappointed.
Pros:

The bathroom is nice. I like that it has a magnified mirror and it feels clean. Artwork is nice. The room is spacious enough. Glad to have a small fridge in the room.

Cons:

Cold at night. We didn't have enough blankets that I could find and though the thermostat was set at 73, we didn't feel the heat.
The view is a brick wall.
The room is very dark, depressing.
The decor of the room doesn't feel upscale at all. The room we stayed in doesn't look like the rooms in the photos on the internet.
I went downstairs for a continental breakfast in the lobby shortly after 8am and there was no coffee. I left to get coffee and pastries somewhere else. The continental breakfast was disappointing. I saw small boxes of cereal and nothing very tempting. Seems odd for a four star hotel.

In the middle of everything!
Pros:

The location is the best point about Hotel Providence, right in the center of the city. Whether you are going to the theater, concert, a fun night out, it' all within 10 minutes walk. We also like the breakfast, savory and more than just one choice. My other half loves the cookies in the coffee station in the afternoons! Our king size bed was VERY comfortable and led to a good sleep. The room has a small fridge and a K coffee machine (Tip: bring your own k pods if you like the strong kind, and get a little bit of cream from the lobby if you wan to skip "powder cream")The place is clean and staff is friendly all around, from the front desk to the people attending breakfast in the mornings.

Cons:

I used the fitness room and the main machine was not working, ...and it seemed like it has been for a while, a bit disappointed but was still able to use cardio machines and weights. Our floor had an ice and a vending machine, but the vending machine was not working. These are little things they can work on, we still would choose to stay here when we visit PVD!
