Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
For the price of staying here, I was willing to put up with a broken handle to my room door, dirty comforter, a wobbly and broken refrigerator. Not to mention the excessive banging and noise; the shower curtains not big enough to shower privately , the broken lights in the bathroom, food left overnight in the kitchen toaster oven. However, finding a dead mouse in the shower soap holder was the limit. I cut my stay short and sis not shower. This place requires a new facilities manager ASAP!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Cons: You get what you pay for! The place is a second story building in a very busy part of Thayer street. It's very noisy at night, esp on the weekend, with lots of motorcycles and cars revving their engines. Goes on past midnight. You will have trouble sleeping if you're light sleeper or don't fall asleep easily. The bathrooms don't have toilet paper in each stall! It's a giant roll on outside of the stall. Our roll was completely depleted. So you're on your own! The walls are paper thin; you will hear your neighbor very easily if he turns TV on loud, which ours did. The Pros: The location is very central to Brown. You won't find anything cheaper in the area. Lots of eateries and businesses within a block. The managers are nice enough on the phone and via email.

Convenient location in that it was super close to Brown. It’s right downtown, but the entrance is difficult to find. It’s an old dorm so it’s worn out. No amenities.

This place is unsafe and way overpriced for what I got. My room had a loud sound, I called the hostel and they gaslighted me by saying that there wasn’t a noise. The place was empty except for a couple and a maid

The first room I checked into was riddled was bed bugs… luckily, whoever I emailed allowed me to check into a different room that night. No bed bugs in that room but there was a strong odor of mold and mildew. Woke up the next morning with a shallow cough. I opted to not stay my second night because this place was so gnarly in the worst possible way.

Disliked: Amenities
I was here for a Saturday night, and there was lots of loud activity outside, including racing cars, until about 1:00.After that it was quiet. Location is very convenient for exploring Brown’s campus, and there are many restaurants nearby. It’s challenging to find the place, since address numbers are scarce. I really appreciated being able to check in early! Thanks! I never saw a person who worked here.
