My two kids and I were pleasantly surprised by the comfort of this old houseboat. It required some stooping and climbing of steep steps, but the spectacular views, fresh ocean breeze, and proximity to fabulous bars, restaurants, and cultural landmarks was more than worth it. Any questions we had regarding the boat and its surroundings were quickly answered by our host, Erin.
Directions for check-in were clearly provided. We parked on the street overnight about a block away, in the morning I moved to the street right outside the dock. Car was safe. Kitchen was basic, no microwave. But youâre on a boat, give up some luxuries. The club was loud, and went until 1 AM on Sunday night. But we went to bed turned on the AC and slept great. Wickelnden Street was quaint and had a lot of good eateries. The river walk was enjoyable. We had plenty to do within walking distance. I would stay there again. It was a great area for our first trip to Providence.
