We booked four rooms for my daughter's graduation from UMD. We were pleased with the hotel based on the reviews and our expectations. The lobby was clean and looked to be newly redone. We paid for the rooms so we got the keys in advance of everyone's arrival and checked each one out personally. They were ALL clean and comfortable. They were basic, no frills, but served the purpose of our stay. One of the rooms had an issue with the safety lock, it was hanging on by a thread. We asked to change the room and they made the change without a problem.
One of the elevators was broken, so leaving a few times was slow. However, for the most part, it was fine.
The front desk personnel were beyond warm and helpful. I made specific requests to accommodate our guests and they did their best to address them. They were fantastic. A guest of ours left something behind and they couldn't have been more helpful in helping us locate it.
I was concerned about comments regarding tires being stolen off cars, but it felt very safe both day and night here.
Finally, compared with hotels closer to campus this hotel was a bargain!! It was a short 10-15 minute drive to campus and worth the price.
