Graduate by Hilton Annapolis
Beautiful accommodations, but the cost of parking is exorbitant. When I started staying here 4 years ago, it was free. Now it’s $35 per day.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Largo/Washington DC
Very friendly staff, room was clean, elevator was shaky and hallways seemed little outdated and needed attention.

The Hotel at Arundel Preserve
The room was fairly clean. Could do with a deep clean in crevice areas of the room. Like around lamps and fixtures. Then we couldn't figure out the switches for what lights. Then to pay for parking was I think a stretch for a guest.

Aloft BWI Baltimore Washington International Airport
Linens are not great quality. They were working on plumbing and had no water - at all - by the time I checked out. They pointed to a hand written sign that was at check in the night before when I arrived exhausted from travel.
