My boyfriend and I had planned a weekend trip 2 weeks before the actual date. We were only able to book one night at the Residence Inn because of the convention that was going on. First off I would like to say that I am very anal about the hotel cleanliness and let me tell you, this place was spic and span!! The beds were so comfortable, living area was spacious, the kitchen was equipped with a large refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, stove!!! The free continental breakfast was great!!!!

We ended up spending our second night over at the Marriot waterfront hotel which i was looking very forward to but turned out not so wonderful..wish we could have stayed our second night at the residence inn!!

staff is very friendly too!!

My boyfriend and I booked this hotel because we were going to visit his son who was stationed at Ft. Meade, and we wanted a suite with doors between the bedroom and the main living area. We got a price of $199/night through [--].

Check in was quick and efficient. I liked that you had to swipe your room card in the elevator in order for it to work - not foolproof security, but it was certainly heads and shoulders over other properties I've stayed at! The room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable and quiet. We were on the 8th floor, and although our room abutted the elevator, I never heard a sound. Extra pillows and bedding were already there in the closet, and it was great to have a full sized refrigerator in the room so we could keep the drinks we bought at the CVS drugstore next door cold.

The breakfast buffet was really very good. I wish that they had a pool, but the location was great, service was great, the free buffet was wonderful, and we will definitely stay there again the next time we head that way.

This high rise hotel is on a main drag about 2 blocks from Camden Yards and I 1/2 blocks from Baltimore's fabulous inner harbor.Upon arrival I was pleased that my request made the day before for a room on an upper floor was honored but was surprised to see a sign at the front desk saying that the hotel welcomes your pet.When I inquired about where exactly the pets stayed and whether a dog or cat could have been sleeping in the same bed I would be sleeping in, the 3 people behind the desk all assumed that "deer in the headlights" look until one of them finally made up what he probably thought was a good explanation: "we bomb (insecticide)the rooms after the animal leaves." This is ,of course ,ridiculous and even though he pointed out that the sheets are changed and the room cleaned , the curtains ,carpet ,bedspread and couch are not changed and the possibility of fleas ,hair and and pet dander left behind is a real sanitary issue.The fact that our bathroom had a long black hair on the white-tiled shower walls and the inside of the bathroom door had black fingerprint marks on it just emphasized that housekeeping is not the answer to residual pet issues.We also had the displeasure of seeing a guest come out of the hotel with his full size dog who promptly did his business on the grassy median section of sidewalk.The owner did not clean up. So If you and your pet are looking for an ok hotel in a great location then stay here. If ,on the other hand, you want and expect a higher sanitary standard then choose another area hotel.

Management response from pminer, General Manager
(Management representative)
Sep 11, 2007
Thank you for your review: I wanted to respond to the comments regarding our Pet Policy.

Residence Inn by Marriott-Inner Harbor is proud to be a pet friendly hotel and we encourage our guests to bring there pets under the condition that they do not disturb other guests and do not cause damage to the hotel. They are also required to sign a Pet Policy which required them to curb there animal while walking them outside. The cost for bringing your animal to the Residence Inn by Marriott is $100. This fee is used to remove all pet dander from the room. This procedure is done by removing all linen and using a carpet cleaning machine to clean the curtains, carpet, and furniture. A test is also conducted for flees. In the event flees are present, they are exterminated. The room is usually out of order for 24 hours. This is the purpose of charging $100 cleaning fee.

The bellhop, front desk staff, custodians were all extremely pleasant and helpful. The location is also excellent; walking distance to Inner Harbor attractions with very safe location for walking at night. The view of the Inner Harbor is beautiful at night. If you want to save some money on parking, park in Pier V garage rather than hotel parking lot. It is less than half the cost and very convenient. I would reccomend this hotel to anyone. Extremely pleasant stay. This 4 star met and even exceeded my expections.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Residence Inn. The rooms were clean, spacious, and new. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. It was only a 5-10 minute walk to the inner harbor. The staff was friendly and courteous. The free hot breakfast each morning was a big plus. It was much more than we expected. I recommend the comdey factory which is a stand up comedy show just across the street above Burke's cafe. Hint: Do not sit in the front unless you are okay with being part of the show. Also if your looking
for night life fun check out the powerplant live near the iner harbor
on Market Place. They have multiple bars and sources of entertainment
all in a central area. Howl at the Moon was a nice bar.
