Not for the Family!!!
My daughter and I were looking forward to a nice 5 day trip in Baltimore/Washington and this hotel was recommended by a travel site. Pictures on the site looked nice but that is only half the story. I will admit the Hotel itself had much character and the rooms were nice and that would have been well and good if we planned on locking ourselves into our room for 5 days. Parking was horrible. If you don't use the $36+ valet service then you have to walk a block in what I would call a crime filled area. The first night there were police blocking the street to the Hotel because of some big street brawl. My daughter was getting nervous and so was I. The second night the valet told me to "wait my turn" as I watched him speak to a co-working for several minutes. Even then there was a sorted type outside the hotel which really made going out after dark not an option. Not much of a vacation. So we cut our 4 nights to 2 and moved to another hotel away from the city. Because I used a travel site to book this came out of my pocket extra. This is NOT a family location and the staff is rude. What a shame for such a nice chain. Fool me once....
