Pros

Pet-friendly accommodation available

Cons

Airport shuttle service not available

“This hotel suits business and solo travelers with its practical amenities, including a 24-hour business center, meeting space, and reliable internet; plus, the Pavilion Pantry offers a unique touch for in-room meal prep. Its location near attractions like Blandair Park and Arundel Mills Mall makes it a reasonable base, although some may find it lacks a certain polish. In my opinion, this is a serviceable option where convenience outweighs luxury.”
