Not worth the price.
Pros:

The ambiance.

Cons:

The size, layout, and style of the room. The nighttime temperature was too warm to sleep comfortably and there were rips in the comforter and stains on the carpet.

Old charm, nice decor, ok area.
Pros:

PROs: it delivers a unique experience in a historic building. Nice room decor, bathroom, main restaurant. Very nice bar and speakeasy. Truly immersive in the past of Baltimore, with a specific touch of Classic Roman-Greek decorations. Very friendly breakfast staff, nice dinner menu.
OK location, in a residential area, with a few old charm drinking and dining spots.
CONs: the basic rooms are small, as expectable.
Conclusion: Fine option to stay away from the center and enjoy a colorful, extravagant, old charm hotel.

Not worth the price
Pros:

The room was small, outdated, carpet was stained and their comforter had rips in it. The room temperature was freezing upon arrival and too hot at night. Two surprises were the wonderful ambiance and the quality service.
