This place needs a total facelift and is the worst hotel I have stayed in since the San Carlos in Phoenix. The room is dark with a minature window facing another wall, the furniture is 50 years old and uncomfortable, the bathroom is like a public restroom with a shower, the tv you can barely see the picture, and the...

Thank you for taking the time to write your version of a review for our hotel. To be clear, the hotel is located in Mt. Vernon, Baltimore which is a relevant location in and of its self. In addition, the hotel is located a block from The Walters Art Gallery, two blocks from the Washington Monument and an easy walkable... More

An excellent experience all around. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The room temperature was perfect and we didn't have to mess with the thermostat at all. The staff was very helpful. I was on the 6th floor and it was very quiet - no street noise or sound from other rooms. The neighborhood is amazing. I definitely never... More

As most have already noted, this hotel is showing its age. Decor is dated, furniture is worn or nicked, and heating/cooling is a bit unpredictable. However, there are very few 2-3 star hotels in Mt Vernon. Given this and the reasonable cost, this place is perfectly acceptable for shorts stays if you're simply using it for a home base. Two...

I totally agree with you that more attention should have been paid to your parking concern. I am glad to see that found the cost reasonable and that you liked the property.... More

We stayed at this hotel because of a deal on Living Social. After looking at other hotels such as the Kimpton and Marriotts, this was a bit disappointing. Let me start off this review by saying the staff was VERY nice and friendly and it's not their fault the room wasn't that great. The building is historic and they only... More

Thank you for taking advantage of our deal on Living Social! Yes, unfortunately with these older buildings we can only be on heat or a/c. We try to time the switch just right each year, and we apologize for your discomfort. Thank you for your review, Christopher Snyder General Manager More

Boy, were we pleasantly surprised!! The room was HUGE!!! Yes, it's an old building...but has so much history! The restaurant in the hotel is run... More

I was in Baltimore for surgery at Mercy Medical Center and stayed at the Mount Vernon. It was 4/10th of a mile from Mercy. It was clean and the rooms were huge.

This is an old building so they have heating or ac, and as of October 23rd it was AC. I bought a voucher on a deal website, did a reservation in advance, confirmed it at the day of my stay.

This hotel is in Mount Vernon, one of Baltimore's more interesting neighborhoods, close to many cultural institutions — museums, music and more. My rate of $66 which I secured online got me a huge room with two comfortable double beds and a large bathroom with bath amenities. The place was quiet and while older and not fancy, it's perfectly fine... More

We found this hotel for a last minute 2-night get-away. It was priced right and was AAA rated. When I made the reservation, the staff was very friendly. That was the last of the quality service. The hotel is about 7 blocks from the Harbor, in an ok section of town, near a hospital. The lobby was dark and rather... More
