Residence Inn Aberdeen at Ripken Stadium

We stayed here the end of August & have waited for a resolution to our problem. As soon as we arrived in the room, we noticed a very stinky, moldy smell & called down to the front desk to tell them about it. They said they would send someone up to our room, which turned out to be a cleaning lady. She said she could smell it as well & came back with a deodorizing spray. That did not help much as it dissipated soon after she left. We left to go get supper & picked up some deodorizing solid air fresheners with activated charcoal in them & placed them in the two rooms while we showered & got around for bed as we had to wake up early in the morning. Once we had our shoes off & were ready for bed, I walked over to the window in the living room area to close the shade & my socks got soaked. The entire carpet in front of the window was soggy! We called down to the front desk again & told them but said that we did not wish to switch rooms at this point because it was late & we needed sleep but wanted them to know that we thought we had found the source of the smell. It was coming from the nearby air conditioning unit next to the window. The next morning we noticed that the carpet in the bedroom was also soaked on the other side of the wall next to the AC unit as it had soaked through my bags from the floor. They apologized, said they would refund us & that the manager would call us but no one ever did. I sent several emails back & forth & they finally gave us 10,000 points, which is about 1/3 the cost of the room. IMO, it should have been at least half for the inconvenience, tolerating the smell, perhaps breathing in mold spores, having to purchase air fresheners & do the follow-up that they should have done. Otherwise, the location is great if you are attending an event at Ripken.

Recently stayed here for my son's baseball tournament. Overall stay was good. If you typically stay at Redidence Inn's the rooms are dated and could use updating. We arrived on a Friday and went to the front desk for several amenities that were missing, soap, dish towel, dish soap, do not distub sign. (We had our dog with us and did not want housekeeping to entrr the room). Our room had the balcony view which was nice.

The hotel is connected to the Marriot Courtyard so the front desk at RI is not fully staff. They share front desk staff. the staff was very helpful and pleasant, shout out to Brian who was very helpful and attentive during our stay.

The stay was perfect everyone was super kind and helpful and I will definitely be back

Great atmosphere

The view from our room of the Cal Ripkin complex was amazing.

Overall, excellent stay. Tamara and the rest of front desk were attentive and amazing. There was not a request they declined. There were a couple issues with room, but no deal breakers. I would definitely book again.

Convenient and private. Receptionists Tamera was excellent. Great communicator.

We stayed for the Ripken Armed Forces tournament weekend in May. From check in to check out this hotel was on point. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the field and we were missing chairs. The front desk went out of their way to go to a local store to purchase us chairs and have them to us within an hour. When we needed additional bedding and pillows, they promptly got it right away. The free breakfast is such a win when traveling with families. I found it to be on point and so convenient, especially the coffee. The proximity to the stadium can’t be beat. It was so nice to be able to walk back-and-forth.The room was clean and comfortable. Our room had a kitchenette and full fridge which was so nice. Not a complaint to be had. They did an amazing job. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

hotel is friendly, large rooms, love the area too

Overall nice stay, some minor things that could be spruced up.

I liked that the property was close to 95. We needed to stop driving and decided to stay overnight somewhere. The baseball complex was pretty cool.

Close to the highway. Close to greatwolf lodge and casino! We stayed in the winter but, I would love to see this place during baseball season!

I liked the layout.

Hotel itself was fine but we arrived at 10pm and the front door was locked and no staff at the front desk. We rang intercom numerous times. We had to walk to the Courtyard right next door and check in there and walk through connecting hallway over to Residence. A SIGN would have been nice so we didn’t wait around about 15 minutes for no reason.

loved this hotel, and the stadium. It was perfect.

The hotel was close to restaurants and stores which is a huge plus. At the same time, not near a highway so nice and quiet! The room was dated (dining chair cracked "leather", lots of dings on walls) and not as clean as I would have liked. Parking is on the Marriott Courtyard side only, which wasn't an issue for me, but might be for elderly or people with little kids and lots of luggage as you have to walk through the Courtyard, past the check in desk to the end of the building to get to the elevators for the Residence Inn. There was no ice machine on the 6th floor and I always fill up my large Yeti in the morning as I drink ice water all day, while onsite with clients. The first morning I asked the front desk if there was an ice machine and was told the breakfast cooks could get some for me. There was a woman that happened to be standing near me and took my Yeti and filled it up. She was so sweet and really pleasant and did it for three days for me! Great staff - very attentive! However, the breakfast area is not open during the day/evening and it still would have been nice to get my own ice.

We have stayed here more than a dozen times (we even stayed on the Courtyard side once). It is a great hotel with a nice staff, and we have been pleased each time with the level of service. It's not so fun when there are the sports teams there as they tend to dominate everything, but my family will continue to return here.
