Good for a short stay with comfortable rooms, but improvements and better communication are needed.
Pros:

We appreciated the free and secure parking and the friendly, welcoming staff. Our two bed room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with queen size beds. The air conditioning worked very well, and overall the room was well maintained.

Cons:

The hotel is a bit difficult to find, especially at night due to poor lighting on a fast road. There was ongoing construction that we were not informed about beforehand, with noise starting early in the morning and some visible mess. The corridors had an unpleasant smell, and the elevator felt outdated and slightly uncomfortable to use. The TV was also outdated with limited options. Additionally, our room was not cleaned at all during our stay.

Never Again!
Pros:

It was convenient to URI.

Cons:

It was under construction. We apparently got the floor that was brand new. It was horrible, the AC fan was extremely loud and did not work right, most of the outlets did not work, including the one in the bathroom, the walls were extremely thin, you could hear everything. The lighting in the room was extremely poor! With the restaurant downstairs, you can actually hear all the people! They should have spent money on soundproofing! It was not enjoyable nor relaxing. I will not be back. Not worth the $300 a night I paid for!
