Ashton-Sandy Spring The Adventure Park at Sandy Spring Hotels

"The best stay I’ve ever had. They’ve paid attention to every detail"

"The room was very clean, with fresh sheets and bedding, spotless floors, appliances, and bathroom. Parking was convenient, and the area felt safe. There were extra plugs available, but as soon as I tried to use them, they shorted out, making it difficult to plug in multiple devices at once. Using my laptop, tablet, or the provided space heater often meant having to unplug the fridge and microwave. Aside from this issue, the room was clean and well maintained. "

"This property worked well for our large group of mostly adults. The large dining room table meant we could all eat together. Beds were clean and comfortable. Neighborhood was quiet."

"This unit should not be on the rental market at all. We have stayed in many converted basement units in the Silver Spring area, and all the others have complied with local building codes by having fire egress windows in the bedrooms. This unit's bedroom is entirely underground and has no windows at all, much less anything providing fire egress. No building permit could possibly have been issued for a project so far out of compliance with local fire safety regulations, so I'm sure this is not the only substandard thing about it.On top of that, the only heating came from space heaters that had to be plugged into power strips. This is not a safe unit for anyone to occupy; we stayed there the night we arrived since we were too tired from flying all day to figure anything else out, but we realized how unsafe it was and moved out the next day.There were numerous other smaller issues: a bed hemmed in by walls on three sides, so that if there are two people sleeping there, one of them has to crawl in and out over the other; no bedroom furniture other than one very small and very flimsy nightstand, so clothes that don't go on hangers can only be either in your suitcase or on the floor; almost no sound insulation between this unit and the main house so that conversations and TV sound were clearly audible. At the price, we expected "basic" rather than "fancy" accommodations, but this place does not meet minimal standards for safety and we would never book it again."

"The host was very welcoming and everything was providedperfectly."

"Location was perfect for this trip, very close to family living in the area, convenient to both DC and Baltimore. Building is an older property with limited insulation. Some noise can be heard from upstairs residents."

"Perfect location for attending a wedding at Glenwood Mansion. Equipped with everything we needed. Enjoyed our stay."

"Overall the home did its job, however there were several small issue that added up. When we arrived none of the garbage cans had bags in them, we had to search the house for bags and eventually found 1 small roll of bags. Also, when we arrived, there were linens inside of the dryer and soaking wet linens in the washing machine. We used several spin cycles to get the linens dry enough to put in the dryer but we couldnt use the washer during our trip becuase it was in poor condition and left things very wet. An appology was offered. It was also very hot during our stay, we had the air conditioning on while out for the day and came home to a house that was 85 degrees when we got back. The A/C was frozen and no air flowing. It turns out the furnace filter was very dirty and giving poor air exchange. I swapped the filter but we had to wait for the coil to de-ice so it was very hot all afternoon and through the night, again, an appolgy was offered. The last thing I consider a no fault item but its worth mentioing woth the other issues. I originally planned on bringing 2 dogs and had it approved by the host, I did pay extra to have the dogs in the home. I ended up keeping my dogs at home with a dog sitter and didnt bring them. I let the host know but they did not offer any refund of the extra fees, I didnt expect it but after the other issues I felt a good host would have offered some compensation "
