My husband and I have stayed there at least five times when we have come to Balitmore for baseball games. Its location is great ( an easy 25 minutes walk to the stadium), the price is right ( we're hardly in the room, going to museums while not at the ball park or eating at one of the many ethnic restaurants in the Mt Vernon area), and the service is really fine. We like it because it doesn't pretend to be somethng it isn't!! Wallking around the Mt Vernon area is a joy!

I stayed for one night for a baseball game. It was a good location for a good price. Walking distance to everything, and easy to get to. It was a really safe clean hotel. I wasnt planning on staying in the hotel all day so the minor issues werent really a problem for me.
The problems: 1. No dial tone on the phone (who uses them
anyway)
2. There were two slow drips from the air conditioner from the celing to the floor once I an while. (I just placed the waistbasket on the floor for one and the ice bucket for the other.)
3. TV reception was poor (some snow and hissing) I wasnt there to watch TV anyway.
4. The toilet tank wouldnt fill up so it wouldnt flush. (I just pored water from the waist basket in the tank so it would flush.)

I notified the desk when i arrived. The next day when i left noting was done yet. i.m sure they would take care of it as soon as I left.

The business center is closed (being remodeled One of two of the elevators is out.
Did I mention it was very very clean. With all the problems I really would stay there again. The hotel being clean and safe was the important issue for me.

This is a fine hotel. It obviously has gone under some major renovation and it certainly looks it. The staff was helpful and kind. I will stay again. I have found a new homeport in Baltimore. It's called the Mount Vernon Hotel.

I liked the visit I had to Baltimore, since it was my first the seafood....amazing! The Mount Vernon was missing something though, little things. I could be nit picking but honestly when I stay at a hotel I don't expect to be calling the front desk for things that should have already been in my room. I had to call for a waste paper basket, a tub stopper, more towels after room service came and fixed my bed, an ice bucket. To me and my fiance these items should not have to be asked for.
The choice of TV channels were a bit stale aslo. The bed was comfortable, the room was a bit smaller than I'm used to and it had a connecting door which made me nervous lol. The place is still undergoing renovation but I believe they were almost done. I don't think I will stay here again.

Jo, the Bronx!
