Located in a truck stop across the street from the Greyhound station (aka "Baltimore Travel Plaza"), this place was both uncomfortable - almost scary - and overpriced. It's poor reputation was well known to the BWI information booth, who warned us of it while they gave us directions to get there. I'd made reservations on the internet well ahead of time, but the desk clerks were confounded by the idea that we wanted a non-smoking room, so it took an extra 15 minutes while they discovered one for us. While we stood there, my sister kept repeating "www.tripadvisor.com" over and over, so here I am!

I've stayed at some low-budget/no-budget hotels before, but this was just about the worst--especially given the price they dared to charge for the room.

My suspicions were raised from the moment I went to check in (at the convenience store counter, no less). My credit card was immediately charged for the entire 3-night length of my stay before I even was given my key or a chance to see if the room was acceptable or not (and I was not staying at any "budget" rate or special deal, just a regular rate of $85/night for two people). The hallways and elevators looked old and shabby...and the room I received no different. The room safe didn't work (no key), a fact which bothered me given the disreputable look of the clientele hanging around in the hallways.

If you are stuck staying at this dump, make sure to bring your earplugs! Room walls are paper-thin and you will be up all night from the sound of doors banging open and closed, babies screaming, children running about, and/or the conversations and tv blasting in the room next to you.

About the only thing this place has going for it is the huge 24-hour convenience store, which given its a truck stop hotel is no surprise. The restaurant isn't bad--if you can get a waitress who will take your order without griping about her lousy day and it isn't full of chain-smoking truck drivers.

All in all I couldn't wait to leave! The only reason I was stuck here at all was for a convention at the Best Western across the highway, which was overbooked. If I'm ever in a similar situation I'll get a room somewhere in Inner Harbor and pay for a cabride back and forth instead of ever staying at the Rodeway Inn again.

the Rodway Inn is a good dump. if you're looking for luxery keep on looking buddy. this place is basic bare bones hotel. cheap price, didn't you're mother ever tell you you get what you pay for?? for the price it works just fine. there's a large diner in the building also for late night eating.

This was not a good place for me and my family our room was hot and the air conditioner did not cool it down. We had no toilet paper. I would not stay there again.
