I was in Baltimore during a conference and this property was one of the selected hotels. First of all, the location is perfect. It is a very easy walk to Little Italy, Fells Point, Inner Harbor locations and lots of restaurants. The beds were comfy but the sheets are worn and have holes in them. There is a large flat screen TV which was not hooked up properly and I had to fool around with the cables to get a good picture. The mini bar was not plugged in, so it was hot. Probably would not have used it anyway. One day, I ordered coffee to be brought to my room at 6am, but it never came. Finally at 6:30 I cancelled my order and walked over to Starbucks, which is right around the corner. When I cancelled they never apologized...just said...Okay, it's cancelled.
The worst part for me were the door slammers. Starting at about 3am, doors start to slam. I looked out one morning to see what it was and an employee was shoving bills under the doors. I guess they take the stairs and then let the doors slam. Then at 5am, they slam again....I looked out and they were delivering the newspapers outside everyone's rooms. Then between 5 and 7, doors slam continually. There is a lot of construction going on and you can hear drilling and workers. I had classes to be at by 8am, so it only bothered me a little, but on several occasions I heard complaints from other guests about not being able to sleep in due to the noise. I was on the 21st floor, so the high floor did not help. I think that the doors must be set to close automatically and if one does not take care to hold the door while closing, it slams with such force that the entire floor shakes. Impossible to sleep.
I would probably not stay here again. There are a lot of choices in the area. In fact, I would have probably stayed at Henderson's Wharf had I know how easy of a walk it would have been for me. Plus with the Water Taxi...it would have been a breeze.
Go to Baltimore....just stay somewhere else.
