It is a convenient place to stay and not far from downtown. Great restaurants are nearby, or a nice walk in a comfortable historic college area. I do recommend for those seeking a quiet, comfortable stay.

It was….. fine. Cheap stay. Not “nice”, but a convenient location. Can’t remember the last time I walked into a shared bathroom to witness a grown ass man in a pants down wash situation, but here we are. As others have said, the TP situation is weird. Rolls are outside of stalls and then out of stock the next morning. Also, beware they will attempt to keep your deposit. The only way I got mine back was through a cc dispute. Despite the cheap and convenient, would not go back.

The staff are excelent very patient and communicative. However the room itself had an amonia/armpit smell and mysterious white trail stains leading to the bed. Also the room looked fine it was mostly the smell that wasnt ok with us so we had to leave. Then yes we did ask staff for a smelling spray but even that wasnt enough to cover the very bad smell and we had to leave early.

Bad experience. There are no blankets provided and the windows could not be closed. It was 40 degrees at night and Michie House refused to send anyone to close the window, thus we could not sleep at all. This is not a habitable lodging and needs to be inspected for health and safety ASAP.

The staff are friendly and helpful. There's a kitchen and a guest living room in the hallway, with other rooms surrounding them. The bathroom is public but has privacy, which is okay. The room is quiet, and, most importantly, it is close to Brown and RISD if you are visiting either, since the hotel is on College Hill. The booking assistant, Stefano, responded very quickly each time I needed anything. Overall, it's quite nice and clean.

Our room was great. Staff were helpful but only remote. Bathroom was poor. Several toilets clogged and some showers not working. Kitchen was not clean. Location was great although off site parking is an issue. Good cheap restaurants in area. Nighttime noisy with cars burning out. For a cheap night stay and dealing with hostel conditions this place is good for a short stay with money to enjoy Providence.
