2.0 Poor
We were due to stay in Graduate last weekend as part of a wider trip from Ireland but due to a family death 2 days prior we had to cancel. While I fully understand it was a non refundable booking, the other 3 hotels on our trip (which were also non refundable) all kindly offered their condolences & a good will refund. We got neither from Graduate. We won’t return

10.0 Wonderful
The hotel is stunning - I loved the decor and attention to detail throughout. Our room was spacious, clean and met our needs perfectly. The front desk staff were kind, approachable and helpful. We loved getting coffee and tea in the morning at Poindexter.

1.9 Poor
Wedding noise can be extremely bad if you’re unlucky enough to be in a nearby room up to 11pm.
B
8.0 Very good
Pros:Room and it's amenities were good. On our floor somebody was smoking marijuana so that wasn't nice
Cons:State of Rhode Island now has Max capacity in all restaurants. This hotel's restaurant we're not open, coffee shop was not open, basically excepy a room you will get nothing. It is very inconvenient in the morning special that there's no breakfast and you have to leave the hotel. I would imagine for parents with small kids this would be awful. There is also no parking at the hotel and you have to go to adjacent independent lot. In an independent lot ,in and out are not unlimited whereas in a hotel based parking garage, in and out is unlimited. If you go in and out few times, you're parking cost would be 50-100$ per day

9.7 Wonderful
Pros:The room was huge with a full size living room and walk in closet actually wished I was there more than one night so could have enjoyed it more
M
8.0 Very good
Pros:Bed was comfortable. Key cards are interesting and collectible. Location is fantastic
Cons:There is no public restroom. So if you check-out and then have bags held before you depart Providence, you can't use any bathroom at the hotel as they don't have a public one.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:The Presidential Suite was beautifully decorated, the staff was very helpful, and the location was excellent.
