This hotel is gorgeous with fun bars and in a great area. I docked points because our electricity kept going out every time I would use their hairdryer or steamer and then we would need to call the front desk for assistance. Happened 3x times. Would still recommend.

Small but comfortable

Our room was small -- not unusual in a big city -- but the bed was comfortable, and the decor was fun (I loved the bathroom). The location is great: close to the highway, within walking distance of good restaurants and next to a public parking lot (three days cost $58). Inner Harbor is a bit too far for walking, but it is a short drive. We had brunch at the hotel one morning, and it was very good. Also one of the more affordable options in downtown as well. The staff are friendly and polite. We enjoyed our stay.
