The parking garage is clean but the directions on how to get there and where exactly to park were incredibly difficult to follow. When I tried to clarify with a staff what time the garage closed for the day they said it was closed all weekend…which was clearly not true and I was able to park with my reservation.

At the beginning of my visit I was pleased that this location was well stocked, my positive take quickly turned. The shelves were overstocked which resulted in many trip/fall hazards and customers constantly running over product with their carts as the navigated the store. I picked up some products from the clearance section before I hit the checkout just to be told that the items were not actually meant to be in the clearance, even though 50+ of that item was located there. The manager flat out refused to speak to me, much like an obstinacy child would. I walked out without buying anything because I am not going to patronize such an I’ll run store. Take that for what you will.

The spots are rather small and as such very close together in this garage. Additionally the driving directions have you wind pretty tightly in a circle and people drive quickly up and down the garage. I am always very cautious when backing out of my parking spot in this garage. On the plus side it is open 24/7.

This park is beautiful. It was an easy 1.5 hr drive from Baltimore City, there is no entrance or parking fee. The trails were well maintained with no garbage. The staff at the visitor center were able to give me clear directions to get to the trail that I was looking for, and the bathroom in the visitor center was also clean and well stocked. The only downside was that at Cunningham Falls SO many people were not following the signs that warned that the falls were dangerous, and there were many many young children off the path playing in the falls. All of the signs direct people to stay on the trails/boardwalks.

I have lived here for 1.5 years and have had a great living experience. The building is old and requires quite a bit of work, but the maintenance staff are great about making sure that everything is done promptly. The building does seem to be marketing itself more to Hopkins students which has just made the hallways louder and things like the garbage and recycling a complete mess. This is more a reflection of the new tenants than the management.
