10/10 Excellent
"Our room was clean and charming, the furniture was comfortable, and the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel is in a great location, very walkable. My only caution is that there is a vagrant population in close proximity - but this is an urban location, you'll have this, and we were asked for handouts but not aggressively. Providence is a GREAT city to visit, we enjoyed the local restaurants. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and recommend to friends."

"Heritage hotel" is a term often used in Asia and Europe, while "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S. but overall the terms are quite similar.
