I stayed on Friday and had a problem with the heating, but they were very kind and helpful in adjusting it for me. I recommend the place; it's good.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

Room had a window on top of entry door that wasn't covered. So you'd effectively get all the light from the corridor into the room. Showers and toilet on the second floor are avoidable. The ones on the top floor are easier to manage. Location is not the best but it has great proximity to the city centre and airport. It's cheap for a reason.

6/10 Good

No staff on site, phone number online is incorrect. The room itself was clean, but the AC unit in the window was broken, and cold air got in all night. There are plenty of shops nearby. Location is a little sketchy, but is okay.

I love the property! The area wasn't great, but the inside was really unique and eclectic. The furnishings are simple. For a no-fuss stay, definitely come here. I felt very safe even though the area had graffiti.

10/10 Exceptional

Yes, room was clean including the air quality. I am highly sensitive to mold and allergies. Was NOT an issue what so ever. Please keep in mind that this place is a living place of historic significance. The original training center for fireman since 1856!!!. Please dont judge it until you get inside. I love this place; especially because I feel SAFE here. The owner is an amazing and genuine person that is easy to communicate with and does his best to accommodate within his ability. Area is convenient. Has bus lines right out front. Access to food and convenient store is within a very short walk. . I rebooked immediately solely based on not once feeling uncomfortable. Thanks guys!! Ill stay as long as you'll allow until my new job starts in boston. I am a nurse that has been hired in the dermatology department of brigham and womens.. Ill always keep your place high on y list to stay whenever im in the area

6/10 Good

The good: the room was very comfortable and the common room/kitchen area was great. It's affordable compared to the other options in Providence. The inconvenient: the hostel is not staffed, so it wasn't possible to store my luggage before my 4 PM reservation. The app to access the property didn't work for me, but there was fortunately an employee on site trimming bushes who was able to let me in. I didn't leave the hostel again because I wasn't sure I would be able to get back in. The bathroom I used doesn't lock and the shower stall has frosted-glass style plastic, so there isn't much privacy. The bad: the neighborhood is not great. I didn't feel unsafe during the day, but if I were a solo female I might have been uncomfortable about arriving or going out after dark. Also, as other commenters have mentioned, there's a club directly underneath the hostel. A long-term guest I asked said it's only been open for a couple of days over the last several months, but a worker who was refurbishing the property was playing salsa music until 6 PM and it sounded like the speaker was located directly under the vent to my room. If the club was open the noise would have been intolerable.

A Charmingly Cheap Hostel

My buddy and I came into Providence for a concert and needed a cheap place so we didn't have to drive back. Price: Our one room with a bunk bed cost us about $33 per person after tax. This is much cheaper than anything in the area as most hotels were around $100 for the night. Hostel Quality: The building's outside doesn't look good but the inside is nice and clean. Whoever restored the building's interior did well. There's a common area with kitchen and a large table as well as bathroom and shower room. Area: The immediate neighbor doesn't look the best but its fine as long as you mind your business. Locals and other reviewers say similar. The worst thing we experienced was a homeless man asking for a cigarette. Otherwise, the location is great as its a 15-20 minute walk from downtime Providence. We had no troubles on our drunken stumble back from the bar. Problems: I only had two problems. First, the morning we were to leave, the bathroom didn't have any toilet paper and since the local stores and restaurants don't have public bathrooms, my friend was forced to buy some. The second problem is that there is a bar directly below the hostel that played loud music until 1 am. I doubt this is a problem most nights but I could see this being a problem if its the weekend and you want to go to bed early. Overall, if you're looking for a cheap place for 1 or 2 nights, Michie Hostel is perfect. I would stay here again.

Rooms were decently clean. It's what you pay for. There's AC units in the room. The surrounding area isn't the greatest but as long as you don't try to stay around you'll be fine. Top bunk of our room was dusty and had hair on it. Few stains on the sheets. Our last night, there was a mouse running around and it came into our room near midnight. Otherwise, great place. Customer service was receptive and communicative. Great service.

This was a horrendous experience and hotels.com should not be booking this place. Not consistent with write up. When got there could not get in advertised front desk available. Door was locked. I called and left a message and no one called back forcing me to get a room at another place. l
