  1. Best Western BWI on Dorsey/Arundel Mills is a good hotel.  We usually use them when we are flying out of BWI or cruising out of the port  They have a shuttle for both.  The hotel is nice, it is in a safe area and there is an adjacent restaurant.  Book through Trinity reservations, the rates are usually cheaper.

  2. We usually use Best Western on Dorsey Road in Elkridge MD for both flying from BWI and/or cruising from Baltimore.  We have used them a number of times and have been happy with their service.  There is a restaurant, Stained Glass Pub, adjacent to the hotel that we have used. Google Trinity Reservations for an inclusive price that is usually less than other sites.

  3. We were on the Legend from June 12-19. There were 3 couples that had the obstructed views. We all had the shorter lifeboats. The first three boats are taller. Here is a picture I found that might give you a perspective. It all depends are where you room is situated. The second picture was my view from 5180. I hope this helps.

  5. We have stayed here a number of times for both cruising and when flying out of the airport. It was recently remodeled. We also make the reservations at trinityreservations.com -- their prices includes the taxes, etc.

     

    There is a restaurant/pub adjacent to the hotel with good food.

     

    When going to the airport, we have shared the shuttle with pilots and flight attendants. They said they usually stay at this hotel. :)

  6. We have stayed at this hotel for both cruising and for the airport. If you google "Trinity Reservations" and put your date on the site, it's usually the first hotel. The cost is usually $129. The amount includes the breakfast, the shuttle and the taxes. The hotel has recently been upgraded.

    On numerous occasions we have shared the shuttle with various pilots and flight attendants.

    I feel safe there and have never had any problems. There is a pub that has good food on the site.

    :)
