Where to Stay
- Comfort Inn, 2 George St., Pawtucket, RI 02860 (401-723-6700)
The band stayed here during it's 2004-2005 playoff trip. Though it's located a short distance away from downtown Providence, the rooms were nice and a free continental breakfast was provided. Some members of the band pointed out that if members of the band were willing to go three to a room, the band could have stayed at more expensive hotels in downtown Providence.
What to Do
If the band has a large amount of time to kill in Providence before the game, the Providence Place Mall is a good place to go to kill time. If the band has less time before the game, there are a number of stores and restaurants a few blocks from the rink on Thayer Street.
