Pros:

Bra läge. Sköna sängar. Bra storlek på rummet. Smidig tidig incheckning.

Cons:

Ingen i personalen log förutom frukostvärdinnan när man pratade med dem. Dåligt frukostutbud på papperstallrikar och plastbestick. Blev placerade i rum bredvid ett som renoverades och borrade/spikade.

Phenomenal Experience with the Valet Service at the Residence Inn - Downtown Baltimore!
Pros:

We stayed at the Residence Inn - Downtown Baltimore after a concert at CFG Bank Arena. One of the highlights of our stay were our interactions with the Valet Team, specifically Montrel. The online valet portal made parking and requesting our car so easy. On the day we checked out, Montrel promptly retrieved our vehicle, opened our doors for us and assisted us with our luggage. Seeing that there were cars in front of us that were blocking the exit, he assisted us with backing out of the entrance, ensuring that we were clear to pull out. I don’t typically leave reviews for a valet service, however Montrel made such a positive impact on our stay and deserves to be recognized for his hard work and exceptional customer service.
