Great Location
We enjoyed a one night last minute stay at the Pier 5 Hotel in Baltimore. We picked this Hotel because we have been in the Inner Harbor multiple times and have always seen the hotel. When we found ourselves in town for an Orioles Game and chose to stay. Overall, the stay was enjoyable, I would return and I would recommend this property to others.
PROS:
1 - Location is great! The Hotel is within walking distance from Fells Point, the Inner Harbor and the Stadium.
2 - Clean.
3 - Staff seemed courteous.
4 - Rooms are spacious and clean.
5 - Beds are amazing.
6 - Nearby Parking besides Valet. Cost is less if you are planning to park and stay.
7 - So much to do nearby!
CONS:
1 - Too many hidden costs. Room was about $50 over quoted price once you add in sales tax for state, city and fees.
2 - Big negative - Housekeeping knocked on our door at 8:30 am! Check Out is 12 pm. The Associates know when guests have checked out. I understand trying to get into rooms, but 3 hours and 30 minutes before Check Out is too early.
3 - Doors to get into room wings lock and you need a key to access. Be sure to always have your key on you.
4 - Continental Breakfast - You have to pay extra for certain foods, so be sure to ask. Also, an Associate asks you for your room number. It kind of makes you feel like you are in trouble.
5 - I could only find one set of Vending Machines.
