Top Waterloo Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Baltimore BWI Airport

8/10 Good

"We stay here nearly every time we’re in the area, and have left previous reviews. The only reason the hotel doesn’t get 5 stars is as times and laws change in the area, the smell of marijuana increases on the property with every stay. This past stay it was so strong we had to change rooms. The staff were/are AMAZING and switched things for us with no issue and are always kind."

Sonesta ES Suites Baltimore BWI Airport

8/10 Good

"Check in was very easy, so easy they never checked my ID, 😳The property was very nice exactly how it looks in the photos. Breakfast was good as well. Only downfall is that the air didn’t work in the bedroom. Prayfully they get that situated. Other than that my stay was good. Would definitely recommend to others."
