What People Say

Guests often praise the friendly service, clean rooms, and easy access to the airport and city. Reviewers mention it’s a great value for the price, especially for those just needing a place to sleep after a late night out. The free WiFi and ample parking are also commonly appreciated.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel is a bit basic—don’t expect luxury amenities or a trendy lobby. Some guests noted that the decor is dated, and while the property is generally clean, it's more about practicality than style. There’s no on-site bar or restaurant, so you’ll need to venture out for meals or nightlife.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to Baltimore for a concert and need an affordable, clean place to stay that’s close to the action but far enough for a quiet night, Econo Lodge Elkridge is a solid choice.
