Heerlijk plekje en fantastisch hotel
Pros:

Eigenlijk alles wel. Het hotel ligt fantastisch langs de haven van Baltimore. De receptiemedewerkers waren ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De ontbijtzaal heeft een geweldig uitzicht. Het bed was geweldig en ik heb heerlijk geslapen.

Cons:

De enige ruimte om in de badkamer je spullen neer te zetten is boven het toilet. De afvoer van de wastafel is heel groot. Ik ben dan altijd bang iets te laten vallen in de afvoer of het toilet.
Daarnaast was het bijzonder warm overal

Pros:

It was a very relaxing stay. Helpful, friendly staff. Good food. Beautiful view from room. Spacious room/bathroom.

Cons:

There was no fridge in the room. A bottle of water in the room on arrival would have been nice.
Evening menu could be more variety?!
