“Small but nicely appointed”

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel considering it's cost relative to nearby hotels. It seemed to have been recently renovated, had modern furnishings and flat screen TVs, even fancy no-swipe door keys. It was rather small with almost no lobby and the breakfast room stuffed in the basement but very comfortable, clean, and overall a great value.

“Nice hotel within walking distance of most places”

Positive: Front desk staff was extremely helpful. Within walking distance to most restaurants and public transportation. Newly furnished/remodeled so the room was nice and clean. Bed was extremely comfortable. Free breakfast with eggs, sausage, cereal, yogurt, toast, muffins, etc. Fitness center was nice. On-site business center was convenient. Negative: The surrounding neighborhood was a little sketchy. However, nobody bothered me and I walked around several times during the day and late at night. The AC unit was extremely loud in the room. The custodial staff didn't clean the room well and I don't think they vacuumed once in the 5 days I stayed there. Although there wasn't a microwave in the room, the one in the dining area was convenient enough.

“Better than the Renaissance”

Let me put this into perspective for those who are wondering about the title. We stayed at the Renaissance originally for Otakon and then moved from there on Sunday night to staying here for Sunday and Monday nights. We were treated FAR better here than we were at the Renaissance and that's saying something, considering the fact that the other is supposed to be highest quality and the like. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful whenever we needed it and are probably some of the nicest people I've seen in my six years of doing convention hotels, which is saying quite a lot. Any trouble we had with other guests were promptly taken care of and they were quick to help us get to wherever we needed and getting whatever we needed to. The rooms were small, yes, but considering the size of the building it's to be expected. But the beds were extremely comfortable and the rooms exteremely clean compared to what I am used to (mind you I've stayed in everything from small motels to big things like the Sheraton, Marriot, and Hyatt) and I can't think of a single complaint that wasn't related to other guests being absolutely rude. If I'm staying a few extra days after Otakon again next year, I'll certainly be going back to this place.

“Value for money!”

The hotel is in one old but renewed house very close to many Baltimore tourist attractions.The room wasn't very big but it has everything necessary (LCD TV, wireless Internet, ironing board, tea maker). I loved very nice wash basin. The hotel service was very good and gave the mark 4 instead of 5 just because the complete misunderstanding regarding the way back to the airport. I have asked the lady at the desk to order SuperShuttle van for me but she ordered a cab and the worst was that the cab was so old and dirty that I was afraid if it could reach the airport. The surrounding of the hotel is good during the day, some people asked money but they were not aggressive, during the night there were some strange people around and I wouldn't feel good to walk alone. Shortly it is not kind of the luxury hotel but it is value for the money and I would recommend it.

“OK”

It is a small hotel. It was OK.

“Good hotel near convention center”

The hotel was in a nice old building. The room was small but nice. The location was very convenient to the convention center. There were some weird issues with the room - the window didn't close all the way and the bathroom door didn't latch. There were some strange choices in decoration (LED lights on the wall behind the bed that flashed in different colors), but the room was comfortable and affordable.

“Hotel/Inner Harbor”

Had an issue with the (Expedia) booking. Front desk staff VERY helpful is resolving the problem. The location of the hotel is "close" to the Inner Harbor, but the outside area near the hotel appears to be a bit dodgy/not the best of locations. BH

“Good overall experience”

The stay was very enjoyable. The price was great. The door hinges need some oil.

“Nice little place”

We did not have any advance info about parking, which made it confusing arriving at night in the dark, and in rain. Everyone there was friendly and helpful, and the location was great for a short walk to the inner harbor.

“a Decent chice of stay when you are in Baltimore”

It is a good place to stay in Baltimore...cost effective and decent.
