Recently spent Friday and Saturday night at this establishment for my friend’s wedding. I was part of the I Do Crew. We had the whole wedding crew there and booked the entire place for Friday and some of the rooms for Saturday. The concept of the establishment is really cool. Being a good neighbor in the city of Baltimore, promoting other local businesses and artisans, etc. It has a very artistic Scandinavian vibe to it, but unfortunately it is done at the expense of making much of the accommodations, uncomfortable, including the sheets, towels and chairs in the lobby and rooms. I stayed in a room that I detected a strong odor coming from when I got to the top of the stairs, when I went in the room, I realized it was uninhabitable with the smell of rubbish and mold. I asked the other guest staying in other rooms if they could smell it as well, and they all concurred. The staff did as well. I went to Amanda at the front desk and expressed my concern because I have a mold allergy. She disclosed that they had a plumbing issue with the shower that they had remedied, but the rug was something they were considering removing and that she could remove it. She went to the room and remove the rug, but by removing the rug, it revealed dark spots on the wood floor in places where people do not walk so it was not dirt. It also was going up part of the planks of the wood of a bed. For health reasons I could not stay in the room on Friday night (couldn’t risk being ill for the wedding) and stayed with another guest sharing a bed. There was no offer to refund the money for the room the following day I asked if I could have my room relocated to a different room Saturday and they said they thought I was staying with another Guest, not realizing that both of us were having our husbands join us for Saturday, they then said they were unable to do that because they were booked for the night. They also refused the late checkout that we had an understanding of. When we returned from breakfast we were locked out of our rooms. With convincing they reset our codes for those of us who were staying two nights in the same room, and those that were staying in one room Friday night and transferring to another room Saturday also had difficulties with the checking out of room one and checking into the second new room because they were strict about the 11 o’clock checkout and the 3 o’clock check-in. They were not able to change my room. I aired it out by propping my door open for the entire day, getting a fan from my friend’s room to run, and opening the windows in the room. I spent the night with my head under the scratchy sheets Saturday night. But by far the most problematic for me was having my dear friend, the groom, leave his room dressed for his wedding to join his I Do Crew with the photographer only to be told that we didn’t have permission to take pictures there, which by the way took all of 10 minutes when we pushed back and they eventually allowed us to, but even more concerning was the fact that the staff at the facility had nothing kind to say, no “You look very handsome” or “Congratulations on your wedding.” Nothing… no words of kindness, celebration, or joy. It was a very unusual experience and one I don’t recommend for others.

The term “beware bespoke” applies here. This place ruined the start of my best friend’s wedding, a guest who has stayed here before which is why he had his I Do crew stay here. We booked the whole place. First of all, they were incredibly uncommunicative from the start and failed to activate our keys when we got there. We were all cool about that because things happen, but then it devolved from there. One of the rooms had a mold infection which the staff admitted to. The solution was to remove the rug. We had to double her up with another person. But wait, it gets worse.The morning of our wedding we’re getting ready our photographer comes to snap a few photos in our lobby (which, again, we have paid for) and grills us about if they have “permission to be in the building.” As if we’re intruders in the space and not guests. Incredibly rude, and they know we’re a wedding group.We were doing that for 10 minutes and were told there would be added charges for that. Meanwhile I’m trying to shield my groom (I’m the best man) from all this.You want an added charge for your guests who booked the whole building to take pics for 10 minutes in your bougie lobby with fully nonfunctional chairs? Literally please grow up and recognize that you’re in Baltimore, not a Prague art gallery. Multiple other issues like keys being deactivated, being told that objects could not be moved between rooms during room transfers…And then there’s the space itself- the seperate bathroom gets flooded with water from the shower because they insist on this silly scandinavian experience. Literally we just want a shower that won’t spray water all over the room. No wonder there is mold issues.The beds are like sleeping on two by fours. The digital locks on each room are so finicky it takes 10 times to open it each time. “Sacrificing function for form” is the key here.Owners: you need to be sure your staff communicate, first of all. I am also deeply concerned that there may have been homophobia involved due to this being a queer wedding with queer guests. I will never recommend this space to folks visiting our city and am very disappointed that the start of my best friend’s wedding will forever be tarnished by this experience.

I could not recommend this hotel enough! The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. The staff was friendly and attentive, and helped us make sure our stay was enjoyable. For folks who like boutique hotels, I'm not sure it gets better than this. The outdoor area that's shared with the cafe is very large and ample seating - that felt like a huge value add to our stay.The neighborhood is one of Baltimore's best; you are a less than 10 minute walk from parks, shopping, restaurants. Not to mention the downstairs cafe has excellent food + coffee (which guests get a discount to).

I thought this was great. The room was clean and tastefully appointed. It is basically a house that was renovated to be a hotel but everything is really nice. It was easy to get in and out, though parking is on the street. I loved the free coffee downstairs in the morning - great coffee spot. I'd stay here again and definitely recommend it.

Very disappointed in my experience here. The two stars are the pluses. One is for the shower it was really nice and the other star is for the bed which was a very comfortable mattress. Unfortunately it is not positioned for you to easily get to. We were bumping & hitting our shins stepping in & out of the bed. There is also no closet space the few hangers on the wall is it. Very small fridge that is stocked full of their product. If you are wanting to store your own items there is not much space for it. If you have a disability or health concern, be aware that there are steep steps to get into the building. Someone notified that there was a lift in back, but unfortunately to get to the lift you have to walk through several steep steps in the back patio , which didn't make it any easier access. Upon arrival we were given a notice of when our room would be attended to & cleaned, we made sure to be out during the day & time given only to return & the room had not been cleaned. The final & last straw came when a woman came to our room & told us for everyone else's comfort they were going to turn the air on since as I understood it one cooling & heating for everyone you cannot control the temperature of your room. Because of her turning the air on my husband got very sick , shivering & extremely uncomfortable & very physically ill. It was obvious our health, care ,comfort & safety was not a priority. We actually left before our reservation was done & found better , safer accommodations. Maximum expense at minimum comfort, was our expierence here. It seemed to want to be a spa more than a guest accommodation & unfortunately didn't do either very well. You cost us valuable time with our family & loved ones . I'm sorry because I can see that this took time & effort to create, just don't sacrifice guests health & safety . Good neighbor wasn't a good neighbor to us. If you value your health, comfort & safety consider making accommodations elsewhere.
