Had to find an inexpensive room for me and three other men and Rips was it. Bed was comfortable and the night manager/owner was very accommodating. If I’m in the area again I will stay there again.
Room rate kinda high considering this is a no frills property. Room was clean but no place to hang my clothes. The closet clothes hanger bar was broken and missing. Guests next door were loud and paper thin walls. The location for what I was doing and who I was visiting was good. Easy access to DC, Baltimore and Annapolis.

It's conveniently located. Room needs to be updated really badly. Wash rags looked used.

The room size was fine. There was a stain on one of the chairs and we were only given two towels. Also, the night lights on of the beds didn't work.
The restaurant was nice for lunch but part of the reason that I got the room was bc they offered a bar, restaurant and package good store on the premises. Despite the fact that we stayed on a Saturday night, we were disappointed to find that everything was closed by 9 p.m. This was especially surprising and disappointing since they were near a professional baseball stadium, another reason why we selected this room. The desk service was nice enough. I would recommend the restaurant before a baseball game but I would probably stay at another nearby hotel with similar facilities, especially if you like to contribute the fun at a bar or restaurant after the game.
The staff was helpful, despite having to ring a bell and speak through a window. I was pleased to have a microwave and refrigerator. The bed comfortable enough. The carpet was disgusting as well as the vinyl flooring by the sink. I have stayed at less expensive properties that were in better condition.
The staff is friendly, the bed was comfortable, the shower water pressure and temperature were great. Also, the location if the motel is very convenient. However, the motel is in desperate need of renovations. The carpet on the floor in our room was quite soiled and there was mold in the shower and the AC unit. Glad we only stayed for one night.

This property is pretty dated, and the rooms are ok. Nothing fancy. You get what you see in the photo. Very Basic.
Stayed at Rios so that we could enjoy the Maryland Renaissance Faire. Room was cheaper than any other in the area. Very good price, fast check in. Room was fine for 2 nights. Water pressure was the best of any hotel I have ever stayed at.. Bed was okay, need larger pillows. but the room itself was large and had decent furniture in it. TV was a bit outdated, not high def.
It was very quiet and the area is very close to alot of shopping. The room had no microwave, or hot water cup. Thier was no napkins and very low bathroom tissue.
I almost didnt have a room because they couldn't find my reservation with my name until I gave him my reservation number so the proccess took like 20 minutes but other than that the stay was good for what I paid for.

Shower has a persistant leak, window in bathroom was open so room was quite cold
The room was full of stink bugs. I spent a majority of my night trying to get rid of them. I could hear them flying around me while I tried to sleep. I saw several of them crawling all over the walls and ceilings. It was disturbing and made it hard to sleep.
