Stayed at The Hilton that Alan mentioned in 2010. Aside from someone being shot on our floor the first night - everything was great.

It is nice and convenient and right across the street from the ballpark.

Unfortunately I don't think the O's are in town the week of the convention

Poor planning IMO cuz that was a highlight to take the family to the game

That sucks, I hadn't even bothered to look at the schedule yet. Yes, that is poor planning.

We stayed at Embassy and took the light rail.

1) Cheaper rate
2) Suite, which is like 2 rooms for the price of 1
3) Free breakfast buffet with omelets

... what is this you say about no O's game that weekend?!?!?!

Not having the Orioles in town is not only very poor planning but a joke. I have been advocating for years having the National in NYC but all I keep hearing is that it is too expensive. Then if you are going to have it in Cleveland or Baltimore at least schedule it when the baseball team is in town.

Yeah, the O's can use any attendance help they can get...poor planning. Saw them against the Halos the last time it was in Baltimore, great game. Pretty much had our pick of seats, too.

The Nats are home in DC I believe; the date for National was picked in advance of the AL scheduling so luck of the draw I guess!
