What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express & Suites Owings Mills-Baltimore Area by IHG, travelers frequently praise very clean rooms, friendly and accommodating staff, and a quiet, tucked‑away location that feels safe while remaining convenient to highways and nearby dining by car.

Many enjoy the free hot breakfast, though reports about variety, missing items, or broken pancake machines appear alongside plenty of positive remarks. Recurring downsides include marijuana and smoke odors in hallways, intermittent noise from other guests or thin walls, and occasional maintenance issues like hot water, AC, or room amenities. The indoor pool is a common disappointment due to closures or very limited hours, while the gym draws a few compliments. Expect a generally comfortable, service‑forward stay with some inconsistencies.

The only problem was I was there for the pool and it was only open between 7:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Which was a great inconvenience to me and my athlete who needed to pull after their event. So in the future I will not stay at that particular hotel because of the pool access

Staff was very accommodating. Breakfast needs improvement. The pool wasn’t open because they were “waiting for an inspection” that never happened, but overall we were pleased!

The hallway smelled like dirty water. The room coffee machine was dirty. The pillow case was dirty and the two bath towels had holes in it. The pool was also closed for something. This was my first stay on this property and I was not impressed.

As we entered our stay, we were told the pool (which was advertised) was closed for the season. Also, quiet time was to be from 10 pm to 6am. It was so noisy and there was little to not resting at all. Then, I had to put towels at the door as the smell of marijuana reeked the elevators and hallways and the smell was coming through the doors of our suite. Even though it was an ask for cleaning (which I do not have an issue with), we had to ask for additional wash clothes as we were only provided one in the room. Breakfast was okay, and general. However there was no variety and the same items were served everyday. There was no waffle or pancakes at all. Finally, I was charged $75 incidentals for each room reserved. This was not a favorable stay and I will not book here again.

I would like to provide feedback on my recent hotel stay. The hotel was very clean, and overall, my experience was satisfactory. However, I would like to express some concerns regarding the limited availability of elevators and the quality of the breakfast, which did not meet my expectations. Thank you for considering my feedback.

I chose this place based on reviews saying it was a very clean hotel. It was not! Bed had MANY unidentifiable stains all over the fitted sheet which front desk had me send pics then gave me 2 sheets to change them myself. One of the 2 also had stains on them. One bed pillow had a hair between cover and pillow. There are signs stating quiet hours (10pm-8am) and I should’ve taken that as a red flag. Walls are PAPER thin, you can hear neighboring rooms entire conversations so clear as if there was no wall in between. Children staying next to us and above us were literally bouncing off walls and stomping feet at all time. They were slamming doors and walls and anything they could. We barely slept and couldn’t stand being in our room so we had to keep ourselves occupied out of the hotel till closer to quiet hours at 10. Bathroom didn’t have enough towels.

Our room had the potential of being excellent, except we had to wipe down the toilet and sink ourselves because of hairs left on it. There was a honey packet left opened under the hair dryer bag and was sticky and nasty, and The entire hotel smelled of weed in the guest hallways. However, The room was spacious and very comfortable, and the staff was nice and helpful.

I booked the hotel for 2 nights, but I didn’t end up getting a room the first night because the hotel was overbooked. The hotel also didn’t inform me of this problem until I checked in at 9pm even though the hotel knew they overbooked and didn’t have a room for me earlier in the day. I was able get a room the second night, but the comforter visibly stained with something black and of the hand towels looked used and had brown streaks on it.

The rooms and lobby were spotless. I had a room for several people yet only 2 towels and no linens for the pullout bed. The front desk provided them but they were out of wash cloths. The shower drain was cooked and we had to stand in water while showering. The plug was fastened in place and there was an obvious significant amount of hair trapped under it.

We had to stay there for 2 weeks while we were between homes. Our only issue is they did put two children next to us with special needs who were very loud and disruptive at all hours. The hotel should have had them move to the end of the hotel so they would be disruptive to the least amount of people. We have 5 nephews with autism and feel for this family. They should be accommodated in a way that works for the most amount of people.

Adam was amazing when we checked in. He was quick and personable and took good care of us. We stayed 2 nights and the only complaint I have is we were on the first floor by the laundry and both mornings around 7:30 what I assumed is the cleaning staff were VERY loud and woke us up. I understand they have a job to do, but they know there are guests sleeping and I feel its common courtesy to be quiet and not disrupt the guests. Other than that, it was a very enjoyable experience and I would recommend this hotel tonother people.

The property and room were clean and well kept. The free continental breakfast service was decent, not great but no personal complaints. There's also an available gym and pool for guest. My primary complaint was during my check-in. I paid and reserved a room with a king size bed for 2 nights. I presented my ID and reservation information to the woman at the counter only to be told that I would be staying in a room with 2 queen size beds. She said rooms you reserve on line aren't guaranteed. Having been a long standing Hotels.com member, this was a first. After asking her why and telling her that she'll need to refund my account the room price or cancel my reservation she was able to fulfill my original room request. Kinda interesting since the hotel wasn't packed and housekeeping was finished (it was 2 hours after checking starts). Lastly, housekeeping is only available upon request, which wasn't told to me at check in. The next I wanted fresh towels and the HOSEKEEPING manager and staff were accommodating. Overall, everything else was fine, since I flew in town for a friends birthday.

This hotel is nice, but it's a good 4 miles which is about 10-15 minute drive to food. If you stay here, plan ahead and get your food before you get to the hotel. Always tough to go get food after you arrive and are dead tired. I guess I was hoping there wold be something somewhat close driving distance.

For the most part, it was a pleasant experience, VERY clean and a nice stay. Only negative comment was breakfast was served until 10am, but when I went at 9:20 to have mine, I was disappointed. They had a pancake maker, but it was broken. Ok I get it, it happens. The other hot options were two varieties of eggs, or biscuits and gravy. Don’t like eggs, so that’s a pass. Went for the biscuits and gravy. They had plenty of biscuits, so I took one and cut it up before going for the gravy. Opened the lid for gravy only to find it completely empty. Waited for a minute or two for an attendant to ask for more. No one came so I went to the door and said excuse me to the one guy in the room was leaning against a wall with his back to me. As I asked for more he said no, very unapologetically, there wasn’t any more. It was frustrating that the only option left was cold cereals, toast, bagels or muffins. I just wanted a nice fulfilling breakfast, and that didn’t happen. I will give kudos to the face that they had amazing hot cinnamon rolls! Not what I needed, but I will say it as delicious! Overall, the stay as a whole was a nice experience.
