Microtel Inn And Suites By Wyn

The main downside was the shower pressure. It was pitiful if you wanted hot water, barely more than a sprinkle. There was also a smell like the devil’s lettuce as soon as you walked in. I don’t mind it myself, but others might. The front desk guy could have had a bit more personality. On the plus side, the room was a nice size with decent amenities, clean, and had a perfume smell from the previous guest that I didn’t mind. The location was great, with a free airport shuttle and affordable parking at $7/day if you’re flying in or out.

The lobby smelled strongly of weed when I arrived, and it wasn’t even cheaper than other budget airport hotels. The person at the desk was handling both the shuttle and front desk, which didn’t seem efficient. I got notifications saying I could check in or out online and submit my ID there, but that didn’t work as advertised. The hotel doesn’t interface with Wyndham’s system, so despite entering my credit card and ID online, I faced a long, inefficient late night check-in. They photocopied my passport, which I wasn’t comfortable with. The desk clerk waved off my expectation that I could breeze in and pick up keys, as the hotel brand had suggested. All of my Amex cards were declined, and the clerk acted like that was my problem, but the hotel’s system doesn’t take Amex.

The whole place REEKS of cigarettes, even though it’s a non smoking hotel. The halls and room smell like a smoker’s house. We had two pillows for two people, and when I asked for two more, they said they had none. One outlet in the room didn’t work, and our door had a 1.5 inch gap by the wall, so we could hear everything in the hall and someone could easily peek inside. It wasn’t even much cheaper than nearby hotels, so I can’t call it not awful for the price. Save yourself and spend the extra $20 at another hotel close by.

I come here every year for appointments at John Hopkins, and the staff are great. Room 116 would be my choice every time if I could request it. This time I stayed in room 104. It was a bit of a walk, but we managed. See you all next February 2027.
