Baltimore Marriott Waterfront

"All in - great place to stay. Location was perfect t for walking around town. Hotel was clean and more modern amenities. We felt a little mislead though regarding the rooftop bar. I thought we’d have access to it based on how the hotel was sold in Expedia; however, upon arrival we were told that it was exclusively for renters. So, that was a bit disappointing. Otherwise, hotel was great."
