This small property has become our lodging of choice in greater Baltimore after staying at a few of the upscale downtown hotels. We've always been treated graciously by the entire staff. We've returned here six times by most recent count. The rooms are spacious and CLEAN. Coffee makers, hair dryers and irons join the newly added mini-refrigerators(not stocked, only a convenience)as amenities in each room. The price can't be beat for a family on vacation. Ask at the desk for directions to Brookey's, a small farm kitchen restaurant with a great dinner menu and terrific bar service

On a recent emergency trip to Baltimore, we decided to hazard the Best Inn. The location itself seems most unpromising- although very close to I-95, 895, etc, upon driving up to it, it looks rather in the middle of somewhere less than divine. However, the inn was very clean, the rooms ditto and quite large. Our view from the fourth floor was dismal, but then again, the price was rock bottom. A tip- unless you have an utterly indifferent palate, don't bother with the free continental breakfast. Orangedrink instead of juice, reconstituted milk, doughy bagels and Shylockian portions of butter- I didn't even bother looking at the cereal. All in all, though, I'd stay there again because the price was terrific and the staff was lovely and accomodating. One did get a lot of bang for ones buck, and in today's market, that's something.
