The Loom Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
A below average property. Busted things in my room, such as the safe and the shower surround. It is disappointing when you spend hard earned money and expect nice surroundings with the Hilton brand. A cheap property owner.

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Warwick-Providence (Arpt) by IHG
Hot water ran out more than once, floor tiles in bathroom shifted underfoot because grout was old and cracked, “fitness center” is a joke, ants in the pool area, TVs are small. Beds are comfy and staff is nice, but we left a day early.

Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Providence Airport Warwick
Comfy beds, later than normal check out which is great, however they slap you with a parking fee they don’t tell you about. Prices of the snack and waters are outrageous. Older ac units in room pretty noisy.
