My family is thinking of hitting the area for a vacation.

I have tried doing web searches but is frustrating…

What hotels in the area have the best pools? The kids love pools when traveling (2 teens)

Thanks!

I stayed at the Days Inn Inner Harbor when I was taking the bar exam. As you’d expect, I don’t exactly have pleasant memories of the place - but it was a stone’s-throw from the Inner Harbor, the room was clean (and less than $100/night, I believe), and there’s a pool.

I really liked living in Baltimore, but why do you want to take teens there on a vacation - do you have family there or something?

Good point. Unless it’s a family thing, you should come to DC! Hell, even if you’ve family there, you should come to DC anyway - we’re only an hour from Baltimore, and a lot more fun.
