My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were very welcoming with comfy beds and a serene view to the property's courtyard, but there were some cleanliness issues with the carpet and tub. The service was outstanding in their helpfulness overall, yet there were some lapses in room servicing. The location was perfect, close to Mt Washington Village and with beautiful surroundings, though the dining experience was not very good. The facilities were adequate, but there were some areas that could use improvement.

Upon arrival, I discovered a pleasant surprise of an unexpected balcony in my slightly musty-smelling room facing the front of the building. The location was ideal for my visit to friends in Northern Baltimore, close to the city but away from the hustle and bustle. The service was extremely polite and helpful throughout my stay, making up for some minor inconveniences.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel! The rooms were beautiful, clean, and cozy, offering a little porch which was awesome. While the room wasn't cleaned on Sunday, the bed was made. The service was great overall, with extremely polite and helpful staff, except for one minor incident on Sunday night. The location was perfect for me, outside the city but not too far, with beautiful grounds and conveniently located restaurants within walking distance. The dining experience was adequate, considering it was a continental breakfast, but it was a bit of a disappointment due to the limited options. The facilities were excellent, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

The hotel feels more like a conference center under construction than a traditional hotel, with clean and quiet rooms that had a slightly musty smell. The service was professional and welcoming, especially over the holiday week. The location is terrific for those visiting Mt. Washington, close to the village and convenient for exploring Baltimore. However, the dining options were fair, and the quality did not match the price. The facilities were standard with nothing exceptional to highlight.
