Element by Marriott Arundel Mills BWI Airport

I'm going to contact the hotel association about this disgusting hotel. I believe that there was vomit on the carpeting, and it doesn't look like it's been clean for 50 years. This place is a disgrace there was no alarm clock, and ao wake up service. I forced them to wake me up for a meeting, but I was late, as I asked one person to make a note to wake me, but they waited an hour and 13 minutes to wake me. My room had a kitchen, but no utensils, no pot to make food, one fork and no soap for the dishwasher, which I asked for downstairs. I couldn't believe they had it I have a huge list of problems, and they didn't seem to care. I'd like some money back. I am a world traveler, and this place takes the cake. I do understand that they are fixing it up, however, I asked them to clean the vomit off the ground, actually carpet, and they did not. I didn't come from Phoenix Arizona to look at this mess. Imagine, I could have picked a place that was nice, and I didn't. The first time I took this brand, in oklahoma, there was a flood in our room, and we had to be moved. Unless you respond, I'll be talking to the association and just about everyone else. Can't you do better? Ugh! Oh, would you like pictures?

The staff was responsive to a broken lamp cord and was replaced the next morning.

I booked this hotel for my family for a celebration of life that was in Savage Md. I have always enjoyed The Elena in Hampton Va and was very embarrassed for my family that they had to stay here from Friday to Tuesday. The room had stains on the carpet, curtains, the shower was gross, and they were doing construction renovations in halls. I did have to move one daily member due to allergies. I had rented 3 separate rooms. I will never rent here again.

The room itself was clean. However, the hallway and common areas were messy due to construction.

The shuttle was perfect for my trip given we were going back and forth to the mall for medieval times and the casino.

I’ve always thought The Element was a nice hotel, but my most recent stay was just okay. I wish I had been informed that the hotel was under construction—I didn’t enjoy the smell of paint everywhere, workers in the hallways every morning, and wet paint on room doors that we had to be careful not to touch. The rooms really need a major update. From wet stains on the ceilings to peeling paint in the showers, permanent stains throughout the room (especially on the couch), and even broken phones, it felt worn down. While the hallways are being updated, the focus should really be on the guest rooms where people spend most of their time. I stayed in two different rooms. The first was cleaned, but the bathroom had a wet ceiling stain. The second was only about a 7/10 for cleanliness—I felt housekeeping could have done a better job. On the positive side, the room layouts were comfortable, customer service was nice, and breakfast was fresh and enjoyable.

With the property being under construction, the floor we were on was being painted. The fumes in the room weren’t bad but in the hallway, it was pretty bad. At check-in, there were workers still working in the hallways and there were tools, paint, buckets, etc. making it not so easy to navigate with a suitcase.

Very worn and dated room. Construction is ongoing in hall area. Maybe they are going to do rooms too?
