Hotels

The clusters of motels around most of the exits from I-95 and I-195 offer decent value. Among these possibilities are the Days Hotel, 220 India St. (tel. 401/272-5577), and the Ramada Inn, 940 Fall River Ave., Seekonk, MA (tel. 508/336-7300). Rates at area inns and motels invariably go up on alumni and parents' weekends and during graduation weeks.
