I am conflicted about this review. My family stayed here while visiting Baltimore (aquarium, children's museum, etc.). The hotel is nice and convenient. Large clean rooms. Friendly helpful staff. But a few things with out stay were amiss. First, our room wasn't ready until 6pm, two hours after check in. The staff was very apologetic and gave us $50 off the room, plus free parking. But still, with two tired kids, it wasn't fun. Second, we got drinks at the bar. Cocktails were around $10. An Old Fashioned (oddly not on the menu) was $20! So beware the unexpected markup. But overall it was a positive experience despite some hiccups, in large part due to friendly staff.
