SpringHill Suites by Marriott Baltimore BWI Airport
Clean room, friendly staff, great location. Hotel is close to the airport & many eating options. Located in a quiet area but still close to everything.(downtown was less than 15 minutes away) The rooms were spacious & clean. Some furniture is a little outdated but comfortable. Many other reviews ...
