This one conductor lady was very rude it was like she didn't want to be here and had an attitude…read morewith everyone. I am pretty sure the staff here are well aware of who I am talking about. Doing a job that must deal with so many people you can't come in with a bad attitude. And the excuse of someone else setting her off is not the case because she got on the train in Providence and her attitude began from then on. Looking on my ticket I see her conductor number 613013 just in case there is a misunderstanding of who I am talking about. She is on the 6a.m. train from Providence to South Station.

Can someone please answer to me what the point is of having a huge lot and not allowing overnight…read moreparking? Am I missing something? What a waste! My friend and I went to Boston for the weekend via the "T". This is not my first time taking the "T" but it was the first time I drove there without being dropped off. Being the super organized person that I am, I planned everything down to the last detail. I checked the MBTA website for parking information at the South Attleboro station to compare it to boarding the train in Providence, as both stops happen to be about the same distance from my home. The only information listed stated that parking was $4.00 per day and managed by a separate company called "Laz" (so this is how they separate themselves from the parking company's unfair policies). Upon arriving, I picked the spot, checked my space number, and inserted $10.00 into this ridiculously outdated contraption. Thinking $4.00 per day and then just not having the change in ones, I succumbed to the additional $2.00 (big deal, I thought). So what happens after over-paying my parking and arriving the next afternoon to get my car? You guessed it, parking ticket! This ticket doesn't give you an option to call and explain, just the option to appeal and if your appeal is denied you are charged a $20.00 surcharge. Also, if you opt to pay by phone or internet you are charged a $3.50 surcharge, plus the $1 fee that is already added for the fact that you got the ticket in the first place. Now I'm faced with a little dilemma, do I mail a check in for $5.00 (potentially risking it being misplaced) or appeal and potentially be charged more and/or deal with traffic court? Any logical person will just pay the ticket, and this is what angers me most, they back you into a corner. The website does not mention that there is no overnight parking. There are not any readily noticeable signs that read no overnight parking as I was sure to check after receiving the ticket. Alas, there is a small section on the white sign near the outdated parking contraption on the bottom left that reads "No Overnight Parking". Unlucky for me I guess, as people were blocking that bottom portion of the sign as they stood to pay that morning. So thanks South Attleboro Station for all together charging me $15 for parking. The amount is not large but the inconvenience hugely unnecessary.

Boston (in) bound tracks are on the parking lot side of the station. Providence (out) bound tracks are accessed using the pedestrian overpass. This is a fully 'outside' station so dress for the weather. Purchase tickets on the train. Temporary bathrooms and portajohns are currently available for customer use while a permenant bathroom facility is constructed. A metal fence seperates parking from the station and buses. Walk toward the left side of the fence, near the bathrooms, to enter. Bicycle parking is located by the bus stops. The station is in good condition. A few restaurants, bars and visitor info center are within a 15 minute walk of the station. Check the MBTA website for schedules, routes, prices and delays.

They have bus stops here as well, and places to leave your bikes. I see patrol coming around often. They do have porter potties which I don't like but it will do when you have no choice. You can get dropped off or drive in and leave your car. It's much nicer and so much closer with it being located in Pawt/CF.

4 out of 5 stars…read more I've had consistently positive experiences at Providence Train Station. The staff are always courteous, friendly, and willing to help. No question ever feels like a bad question when you speak with them, and that level of customer service is exactly what travelers need--whether traveling for work or pleasure. The bathrooms are definitely outdated, but they are clean and, importantly, do not smell. That may sound like a small thing, but there are plenty of businesses with much newer restrooms that cannot say the same. But they should have the option of paper towels to dry your hands, in my opinion of course, besides just hand blowers. Also one big note for the men's bathroom!! There are 2 urinals and there is no divider between them. So if you're shy or worried there may be prying eyes, then use the stalls. I've never personally eaten at the deli, but it always seems to have a steady flow of customers, so that's probably a good sign. The convenience store inside is also very useful. Prices are what you would expect at a transportation hub, although I've found them to be slightly less expensive than at some other travel locations. The station interior is currently undergoing renovations, and it appears that some exterior work is planned as well, including improvements to the sidewalk in front of the station. Hopefully, the upgrades will make an already convenient station even better. One of the best things about this station is the location. It's right downtown and very easy to access. Providence Place Mall is only a short walk away, and the park directly outside the station is a great feature that makes the surrounding area feel much more inviting. My only real caveat is access to Tracks 1 and 2. You have to go downstairs to reach them. I have not personally noticed an elevator nearby, although I would expect there is an accessible option somewhere in the station. There are escalators, but the ones I've used only travel upward rather than down toward the tracks. Overall, Providence Train Station is convenient, clean, well located, and supported by a very helpful staff. With the renovations underway, I think it has the potential to become an even better station.

We came here recently to get on the Amtrak train to New York City…read more The station is being remodeled, so there's a lot of fencing and scaffolding around. The elevators are not in operation right now, so be ready to haul your bags up and down the stairs ... or... wait for the slow elevator to come up. The remodel has moved many things inside for the time being. They still have large screens for train information. It's an easy station to use since there's only two tracks.

Knew exactly where we wanted to go. Fare policy easily readable $4.25 first mile , 25 cents per tenth of a mile afterwards. Cost us $8.25, we threw him a $10. I deducted a star because there was no taxi meter. Rather a Garmin Nuvi tracking the distance. I would use them again. Clean cab, some Chevy 4 door.

Grab your beverage and snacks, for this tale is quite the event to read…read more A couple weeks ago, I returned from a business trip. My flight landed in Boston just as the commuters were beginning their daily assault on the city. I weaved through the sea of paycheck cattle, managed to take shelter in an outbound commuter rail toward my home town, and felt entirely relieved to be nearing the end of my travels. Not so fast. It was apparently naive of me to give Attleboro the credit of assuming it was the type of place where cabs regularly frequent train stations. They don't. At least, on this clear sky morning they decided not to. Thus, I was left with cumbersome luggage and underdressed for the colder-than-when-I-left frostiness. To my brief relief, and may I emphasize the brevity there, I spotted a policeman watching over a minor road repair job. I approached the cop and asked if he knew anyone for me to call or how I might get home. At first, he said he simply did not know. Preferring not to let my tongue lash at law enforcement, I took a few steps away and had barely relinquished myself to cursing the use of my tax dollars when Mr. Cop had a streak of brilliance, and remarked to me to try Houle's. As soon as he said the name, I knew I recognized seeing the name around. The same name around town on the same cars around town since I was birthed, but I digress. To stay chronological... I called Houle's and, growing increasingly frozen, managed to stammer out that I needed a ride and was on the street near the train station. The guy on the other end of the line, who I can effortlessly envision resembling Jabba the Hutt, demanded that I tell him where I was going. I guess "home" wasn't clear enough the first couple times I stated it. Had I not been at his mercy, I might have said, "Well, I took the train to Attleboro to catch a taxi the rest of the way home to Cincinnati actually." We rose our voices at each other with every line. The back of my mind was starting to think, "Well, this one is hopeless. Might as well let off some steam." Surprisingly, he ended our correspondence with, "Ten to fifteen minutes." *click* I pondered finding an alternative and leaving Houle's hanging, if someone was even coming at all. Curiously, a taxi actually did come. It took a few extra minutes, but beggars can't be choosers I suppose. I hobbled into the taxi, putting my luggage into the rust-bucket wagon with zero help from Mr. Chauffeur. Also worth noting is that my fair driver had to ask where I was going, entirely negating the necessity of the phone battle I had waged before. Ok, back to my point above about the cars. Yikes! Ever heard of reinvesting in your company, Houle's? These things are time capsules in the least exciting way possible. The seats were different colors, not in the "I'm chic and artsy" way but rather in the "Yea Bob? I need a passenger seat. Ya got 'nething?" way. It's 2013. Every half decent taxi offers to take a card for payment. Ones that qualify as good even offer *drum roll* a screen with such novelty info as weather and news. Houle's? The back of a head and a trip to the ATM for patrons low on the green. After my ATM pit stop, we did finally get home. I paid (and did tip, for what it's worth) and zoomed into the comfort of my home with a speed unparalleled since Usain Bolt in London. My experience with Houle's was over...and never to resume again.

I called for a ride to the hospital for a scheduled breast cancer surgery. My husband is very ill and my daughter lives out of state and the ride I planned fell through. Needless to say this was a very stressful and emotional time for me. The dispatcher quoted me a price of $28 - cash only. The cab arrived promptly at 8:30. I could not open the broken down old slide door! Hmmm, ya think the driver might have gotten out to help? Nah! He not only didn't open the door for me but was annoyed that I couldn't do it myself. Before even moving he demanded money up front and now asked for $30 as I got in the car at 8:32 . He explained it was a dollar a minute! I brought $40 cash with me with with the plan of giving it to him and asking for just $5 back allowing for a $7 tip! I was in tears as having to ride with this awful man for something so emotional and life altering! I explained to him that my father was a cabbie for many years and that I had worked in the food service business and that I come from a long line of tippers! My Dad would NEVER have treated a customer like that! He then said "ok only 60 cents a minute. I handed him $30 and of course he had no change. I told him "there's your tip"! I was clearly distraught of which he had not an ounce of compassion! He pulled up to the hospital without saying a word! Once again I struggled to open the door and he could not possibly get off his a-- to help me just kept explaining how to open the door! He sure took me for a ride!!
