Harborside Hotel
The place was great but the bed was very hard and difficult to sleep on since it was just a box spring and uncomfortable. I had to use pillows to sleep on to make the mattress softer. If they changed out the mattresses for something of a Marriott quality it would be my go to hotel when in Md?
