We stayed at this hotel because it was close to Merriweather Post Pavilion. It was an easy drive to get there. The hotel is going through a renovation but you would not know aside from some boxes in the lobby. The hotel was understaffed at the front desk and with housekeeping so rooms were not ready 30 minutes after check in time. The woman at the front desk was very apologetic and asked everyone to be patient. I requested to change from what I reserved to what they had available and they were very accommodating. The hotel was clean and very quiet.

I appreciated Beverly’s top notch, well poised, knowledgeable, kind, and professional customer service! The only issue there was is the phone in the room had no dial tone! I had my 76 year old mom there who has health issues. At any point that I needed to call for service, I was unable to. I had questions, I had to take the elevator down to ask, I needed towels because the room was only prepped with ONE bath towel, had to go down to ask for towels. It was truly and excruciating pain the ass that part. If it wasn’t for sweet Beverly, I would have pitched a fit!

I definitely won’t be back. My stay was ruined.

We were unable to get to sleep until late because of people making noise in the hallway. Then we were awoken at 5am by a couple next door who was arguing and slamming doors at 5 am. Then 3 hrs later we heard a different couple HAVING SEX LOUDLY. I want a refund but I have no idea how to file for one.

Poopy

The bathroom smelled live poop and the smell was disgusting and you could smell it in the room and in the halls. I complained but the maintenance guy said it smelled like poop everywhere. The toilet wasn’t flushing right either. Also there was toilet paper in the toilet every time we came back from somewhere like something had pooped in the bathroom flushed and wiped again leaving the paper in the toilet. They didn’t do anything to make it better either 🤔😔
