Downtown Baltimore Vacations from $279

Parking in on-campus garage is great. Proximity to Union Market is awesome. Track is great for morning workouts. Desk staff was awesome. Rooms are not new, but bed was comfortable and AC kept the room at a nice temp in the DC heat, Will stay again.

Check in staff was super friendly and even remembered details about me at checkout. Love that. Vibe was a little confusing. I arrived with a few hours to spare and worked in the lobby/bar/restaurant area for happy hour (which was great), but there was club music on like it was trying to be hip, but everyone in the place was working on a laptop with headphones. My main complaint is that the rooftop that is in EVERY ad for this place is actually only open to guests on Wednesdays from like 4-8. It's a special event venue. You can't even go up there. I thought I'd post up and read with my coffee in the morning or head up after dinner for a drink, but nope. Only on a Wednesday and only for 4 hours. Room itself was decorated again with a trying to be cool vibe. The look was "I found this at a flea market" but not really. Fantastic water pressure in the shower. My other tiny complaint was that nespresso machines were advertised - and it was indeed there - but with knockoff pods. Like, you know who you are targeting with the nespresso machines; give us the real pods.
