• Very comfortable bed and bedding; attractive furnishings; large bathroom; great location.
• Bathroom in lobby was messy with no paper; room service left dirty plates in hallway until late in the afternoon, surprised we didn't have shampoo.

“Our experience was great. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We asked for a King size bed and early check-in and they were happy to oblige. The rooms were clean and check-out was convenient. Would stay here again the next time we visit the Inner Harbor.”

• Room location/view.
• Wireless internet.

“Great Priceline deal. Treated with utmost courtesy by front desk personnel despite cut-rate booking and given a terrific room overlooking the harbor. Also allowed late check-out, which was valuable to me. Room service was fast and food was quite good. Only drawback was poor wireless internet which cost $12.95/day. Ethernet seemed to work better, though. All in all, a very nice hotel, one I would quickly recommend.”

• The decor was great! The cleanliness was impeccable. I really liked the gym too, and how every machine had its own TV.
• There were a few moths in our room. Also, the temperature in the room got very warm in the night, even though we set it to 67 degrees.

“I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The location is central to all the piers. We attended a wedding on pier 5 and we were able to get there in no time! I thought the hotel staff was very friendly and willing to help point us in the right direction. Great amenities! Room service was good and prompt. Great gym with TVs on every machine tons of weight equipment as well. Loved the three story mall attached to the hotel. So convenient!”

• Proximity to Harborplace shopping/eatery, and Inner Harbor
• Parking was too expensive. Should be complimentary, or at a discount for hotel guests.

“Upscale hotel within walking distance of most Inner Harbor attractions. Very nice rooms, beautiful common facilities, and helpful staff. Good negotiated price. Room was quite a walk from the elevator. Internet was spotty and often disconnected. Adjacent parking was convenient, but expensive.”

• Convenience to the Inner Harbor was excellent - located just across the street.
• The floor was not vacuumed, one light burned out in bathroom, bed sheet had a whole in it.

“All of the hotel employees were friendly. From the doormen to the front desk to Housekeeping to the Maintenance Man. We called housekeeping and maintenance and within 10 minutes our problems were solved. The lobby was clean and spacious. Our room was very large with a view of the Harbor.”

• Friendly, helpful staff.
• Too noisy outside and inside.

“Overall hotel was nice, clean, friendly staff, although the room service attendant told me she would return with the forgotten water and never returned, although i felt she wasnt going to, the hotel itself was just too noisy, it felt like you were outside on the street and the noise in the hallways was a bit much
if you dont mind noise its great
I might go back there just for the room service meals
which were supurb especially the bread pudding in wiskey sauce I'm still dreaming about it.”

• The location of the hotel is unbeatable - it is right across from the harbor in a great neighborhood.
• The pool was crawling with kids and was way too small to accommodate both children and adults.

“This hotel is in an awesome location! The harbor is right across the street and anywhere you would want to go is no longer than a short cab ride away. The rooms in this hotel have been recently renovated and are stunning. Flat screen TV's and plush sleeping arrangements to be precise. I enjoyed coffee each morning in the cafe and free wireless in the lobby. The swimming pool and the elevators are the low lights of this hotel. There are only one set of elevators and there are many rooms. The swimming pool is crawling with kids at all hours which I reluctantly understand, but the size of the pool is quite small and a leisurely adult swimmer can find no room amongst the constant splashing.”

• Great location! Close to everything! Attractive rooms/lobby.
• Parking is pricey and city view rooms are loud!

“The hotel is very convenient to all the offerings of the Inner Harbor & stadiums. The front desk staff was very friendly and the restaurant, for the breakfast buffet, was exceptional, but not cheap! The room we had featured two queens with a fridge, a nice HD TV. Granite tops in the bathroom & on the dresser. Nice sheets/comforter set and solid dark wood decor throughout.”

  perfect.
• The housekeeping department neglected to make sure that the items were cleaned and replenished from the previous guests.

“Great location, clean (appeared to have just completed a renovation, smelled new). Beautiful decor, Attached to a mall/plaza (nice when traveling with small ones or if the weather was rainy). Seconds away from Inner Harbor and the Baseball field.”

• Staff was very friendly and good location.
• Very noisy.

“The hotel did my expectations with the exception of the noise at night cause by the cars on the street riding over the metal plate. Each time a car went over the plate it cause us to jump in our sleep. When I mentioned it to the front desk the response was I should have told them sooner.”

• Location.
• Bed, front desk help.

“Room given to us was a Parlour Suite, a living room with a fold down bed. This was the first time I have ever been in a hotel room with a full size bed. On top of that, I am 6' 2". Full size doesn't work. Would have requested other room, but didn't realize in room until midnight, as we were out checking out the town. When going to use the pool, the entire floor the pool was on was under construction. And the pool was locked. Neither the front desk on check in nor the receptionist when we called for pool hours mentioned that is was closed and not available. Front desk was less than willing to help with any problems or issues.”

• Location is terrific. Kids loved being connected to the mall.
• Pool closed for renovations while we were there.

“Best location in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Walking distance to everything. You could even walk around the mall in your slippers if you wanted. Pool is currently closed for renovations, but they will reimburse you for your cab ride to one of their sister hotels. Did not get the room with 2 beds as requested, but they did provide a cot.”

• The manager helped resolve a problem in an adjacent parking lot. He paid special attention to me on my birthday trip.
• Nothing. We had a terrific time and would definitely return in the future.

“The hotel was centrally located to the Inner Harbor and other attractions. The bar and restaurant were attractive. We had a drink in the bar on the fifth floor.
