Wonderful boutique hotel located in the heart of Baltimore, close to a wide variety of attractions in the Inner Harbor and Mount Vernon. If you are looking for an exciting unique experience distinct from typical hotel experience, this place is definitely worth a visit. The rooms, bar, and restaurant are classically elegant and beautiful. They don't have an onsite gym but a great perk is that you can use the gym at MV fitness which also provides a great unique experience - working out at a beautiful classical building. I would highly recommend this place.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating to all requests. Outdoor sitting area for smoking available and their lobby bathroom was always clean. Food was alright but there are great alternatives in the area. Water pressure for the shower was great and the bed was comfortable, a very cozy vibe.

Lovely stay, as usual. The breakfast service is always a bit hit or miss, and this is something that could be improved. Front desk staff are incredible.
