The Bar Staff was less attentive than expected. Sat at the bar and took a long time to set served. Was about to leave, then we got severed. The staff saw us, but continued talking among them selves and with other people at the bar

Totally serviceable.
Pros:

The staff was great and I felt safe and had what I needed.

Cons:

The room could do with an update, for what I paid for the week I honestly expected a bit more of stylish experience.

I’d stay here again
Pros:

They offered free breakfast. The hotel was quiet and conveniently located. It was great that there was a microwave and stove along with dishes.

Cons:

Parking is pricey. It would be great if there was onsite parking. You have to park at a nearby parking garage. We stayed during a snowstorm and had to walk a few blocks to get the car

Reliable Great Hotel w/ Kitchen & Suites
Pros:

I’ve stayed in this property about 3 to 4 times over the last two years when I have business in Baltimore. I find this property very well managed, it has a bit of a small footprint, but the rooms are fairly spacious, and I enjoy having a mini kitchen and a place to cook my meals when I’m traveling. The staff here is overwhelmingly, accommodating, and I find the breakfast every morning good. This is usually my go to in Baltimore, there are quite a few other full service hotels if you’re looking for more of that full service experience, but this hotel certainly meets the most people‘s requirements, and possibly more.
