We booked this hotel after spur of the moment deciding to go to Baltimore and reading reviews on TripAdvisor. We checked in early, and because our room wasn't ready, they upgraded us to a top floor, three room suite with three beds and two bathrooms. Free breakfast, which is always a plus, and although parking is expensive, the hotel's location was conveinent enough so that we didn't need to use our car at all and were able to walk anywhere we wanted to go.

I spent 4 nights here visiting Baltimore to go to 4 baseball games between the Orioles and the Boston Red Sox. My good friend and I arrived around 10:00 AM and our room was ready.
It was one big well appointed clean room, with a kitchen area, a living room area,and 2 comfortable queen sized beds. The bathroom sink and vanity were outside of the bathroom which is handy. Though we never cooked, having a full sized coffee maker, a refrigerator and microwave do come in handy.
They told us when we checked in that we did not have a view of the inner harbor and you can see that most of the rooms probably don't. It did not surprise us as we were in the cheapest category.
The hotel was in a great location. We were a short walk to the Inner Harbor and all the wonderful things to see, eat and do there, yet within a ten minute walk to Camden Yards. Though we were two women we felt extremely safe even walking at night after games.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good, very crowded on weekends (or at least this one) but not an issue on Monday and Tuesday mornings.
I was courteously also given a 1:00 late check out on Tuesday as my flight was not until 6:00. They held my luggage for a short time after until we had to leave for the airport.
I would definitely stay here anytime I visit Baltimore and would not hesitate in anyway to recommend it.

I booked a two bedroom suite at this hotel on marriott.com. I have been a long time marriott rewards member but I learned from this visit that Marriott could care less about that.

I arrived late for check in (7:00 PM) and the folks at the desk were the nicest that you could imagine. The rosy glow ended when I discovered that I had been given a lower floor, handicapped room. I immediately complained but since the hotel was booked, I was stuck. The room was the worst. The showers had hanging shower heads with no water pressure and the beds were hard. Since the room was on a lower floor, all I heard all night was the police sirens and drunk riff raff out on the street. Note to Marriot - do you even read those preferences that we fill out on our account???

In the morning, the breakfast area was absolutely packed with screaming children and lines down the hall. Half the food was gone and the remaining food was cold. We took what we could back to our room.

To the hotel's credit, I did receive a discount on the room. However, any misconceptions that you may have that you will receive some type of special treatment just because you are a loyal elite marriot customer is a fantasy.

We dont usually stay downtown but this was quite a surprise! Loved the huge rooms with everything included that you could imagine. Wireless internet access was easy to use. Bed was very comfortable. Separate living area and kitchen and bedroom was very large.
Breakfast buffet had everything you could imagine.
Staf was very helpful and courteous.
Within walking distance of Convention center and the inner harbor!

The Dunkin Donuts walkup window next door was VERY inviting!
