TownePlace Suites Fort Meade National Business Park

I'm really puishing this as a 3, realistically its a 2! However, their Assistant General Manager, who in my opinion, should have been the manager, is at least a 10! I know, 5 is tops. However, Laura S was the happiest, friendliest, can/will do we have ever met at a Marriott. She always showed a deep concern for our needs, was always smiling, and was always working with a staff person, and, always stopping to greet someone. Sadly, and Marriotts huge loss, she is now gone. This particular hotel will never be able to replace what she was to theml! We had four weeks of experienceing her positivity! Next was Oscar, the do it all guy... he was awesome! Next, the majority of workers are unhappy... especially early morning workers.. As for the hotel, its dated, and needs an upgrade.. soon. We were in an 'accessable' room, wher yiou just couldnt roll into the bath area as the lip was too high for a lift.. as was the transition between carpet and flooring. To top it off.. this handicap accessable room... DID NOT HAVE A TABE TO EAT ON!! we had to use a side table from a wheelchair!!! Second person ate from their lap!! So... if you need an accessible room... skip this.. pay a little more and get what you need!

My friend and I enjoyed tonight stay at this hotel. The room was clean. Upon entering the room there was quite a strong odor, possibly from fumigation or cleaning products. We turned the air conditioning fan on constantly to try to help to remove the smell. We did not suffer any ill affects from the odor, but it was extremely noticeable when entering the room. The bed was very comfortable. I had difficulty rising from the low height sofa, but the chair provided for the desk was comfortable enough to sit in during the evenings. We really enjoyed the convenience of having a small kitchen. It was well stocked with glassware, plates, and silverware. We were on the first floor, and our hallway was very quiet and conducive to a good nights rest. We easily drove to visit Annapolis and several places in Columbia. I would stay here again.

Veronica and Tiffany were GREAT in letting me know restaurants that were available around the hotel. Room was clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable. Shower was good. toilet is LOW!! (used to a 17" toilet at home!!)
