Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Ulysses. The staff was very helpful, the room comfortable and the location was perfect - a short walk from Penn Station and to the inner harbor. Would stay here again!

Small but comfortable
Our room was small -- not unusual in a big city -- but the bed was comfortable, and the decor was fun (I loved the bathroom). The location is great: close to the highway, within walking distance of good restaurants and next to a public parking lot (three days cost $58). Inner Harbor is a bit too far for walking, but it is a short drive.
We had brunch at the hotel one morning, and it was very good. Also one of the more affordable options in downtown as well.
The staff are friendly and polite. We enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful stay. Ulysses Hotel is very well appointed and comfortable. Blooms bar is not the greatest, questionable hiring tendencies.
Would recommend the stay.
