About this property

Convention Ctr, Camden Yards, Inner Harbor W/ Parking - 627

Hello,

My name is Bryan Canary and I've been renting 627 S. Paca St as a vacation rental through vrbo since 2006. With almost 700 groups staying in this home, I've had hundreds upon hundreds of reviews. Ask VRBO/Homeaway why only 60 or so are currently showing for an interesting conversation.

Before clicking any "book it now" links, please email me so we can discuss your stay and pricing first. If you go directly to the "book it now" option, it puts us on a 24 hour clock for wrapping up a booking and if we don't my metrics can be negatively affected.

-- GENERAL PRICING --
2 night stays are typically $350-400/night depending on time of year and events.
3 to 7 night stays are typically in the $225-300/nt price range depending on time of year and events.
More than 7 nights are quoted custom at all times.

-- FINAL PRICING FOR CHECKOUT --
If we agree on pricing that is different than the automated pricing, you'll make a request for those nights, I'll modify the pricing, and then you'll need to accept the modification to book.

-- CLEANING FEE --
The cleaning fee is $175.

-- $350 REFUNDABLE DAMAGE DEPOSIT --
VRBO collects a $350 damage deposit

-- TAXES --
As of 1/1/2020, there will be a 15.5% tax added to all bookings through platforms for Baltimore City. 9.5% is Baltimore City Lodging Tax, 60% of which goes to the city and 40% goes to a non-profit responsible for tourism (??). The balance is state sales tax at 6%.

-- TWO PAGE CONTRACT --
I do have a two page contract that will need to be signed. I email that after agreeing to a booking. I need that returned in 24 hours to confirm your booking


-- DOCUMENTs AND DETAILS --
From being in business since 2006, I have accumulated quite a set of online resources for you. Those are made available upon booking. I've tried to provide the most relevant information below.

--PROPERTY ADDRESS--
Bryan's Baltimore Vacation Rental
627 S. Paca St.
Baltimore MD 21230
NOTE: I use to have 2 properties 625 and 627 S. paca St, but I sold 625 in July 2018 so I'm now down to only this property.

-- FAMILIES, BUSINESS TRAVELERS, GROUPS OF FRIENDS--
I generally have very enjoyable experiences working with and pleasing families and business travelers. It's generally a good fit both ways. My home is ideally situated and ideally setup for a great Baltimore stay.

-- GROUPS OF FRIENDS --
I use to have very consistent, good success with large 'groups of friends', but my inquiries in that category have risen a lot since 2014 and so have some of the issues, headaches and heartache. These groups are often in for 2-3 night stays for things such as concerts, sporting events, birthday parties, reunions, bachelor and bachelorette parties. The groups of friends I have experienced the most hiccups with are often self categorized as 'professionals in their 20s-40s', so while that is important info, please understand it does not, by itself, make me feel 'comfortable' with a large group of friends. If you are going to be the responsible party for a large group of friends, PLEASE think about each of your companions and make sure you don't have anyone in your group that naturally attracts problems or trouble. If you do, please consider a hotel over my home or that of others, as problematic issues can affect a landlord’s entire business if it involves neighbors or neighborhood issues.

If you are reserving for a Group of Friends, please provide some details about your group. Likewise I will want you to say something comparable to this prior to booking... "Hey Bryan, I'm comfortable being responsible the behavior of my friends both in your home and in the immediate neighborhood area"

--PROPERTY INFO--
Beautifully rehabbed 160 year old Row Home on one of the most beautiful blocks in Baltimore. The front features a street full of Bradford Pear Trees, best seen in early spring....out back you'll find a deck off the kitchen that overlooks a small private yard and parking pad. You can catch glimpses of both Camden Yards and Raven's Stadium from the backyard and there's a wonderful neighborhood park just a few 100 yards away. On the inside you'll find 2100 sf of contemporary loft style living!!

--PARKING--
I can accommodate 2 vehicles.

-- One car that is 20' long or less fits on the parking pad behind the home (no permit of any type needed when car is in that spot)
-- One care can be accommodated on the street or in the awesome neighborhood lot right behind the home. That car requires the use of a cardboard permit on the dash that resides on the kitchen counter. That pass is like gold, and once lost, it can't be replaced until next year, so you'll have to sign over your first born if you want to use it!? ;-)
-- As for additional vehicles, there is a gas station about 3 blocks away that will often allow pay to park and there are parkign garages and/or valet parking another block or two past that for $30-35/day. You can also use commuter lots on the beltway for free (about 8 miles away).

-- SUMMARY --
I really enjoy being in the vacation rental business. I enjoy sharing my home and Baltimore with folks from around the world. Business Travelers Families and Families with children and most pets welcome but if you have children, please look at the photos to decide if you're comfortable having them run around this house. Many families with small children have marveled at the experience, but some prefer a different feel. Groups of Friends in for fun are welcome, but please see the groups of friends section above or below for more info and please notice I'm looking for a very specific statement form the person responsible for booking as part of our booking dialogue.

Quiet, responsible drinkers and non-drinkers are welcome and smokers are welcome (with ALL smoking done outside with butts disposed of appropriately). Illegal Drugs in any form are not welcome.

Please drop me a line with any questions and please do it before select Book It Now so we don't get on a 24 hour clock for decision making!!

Regards
Bryan

Owner expects you to do all the cleaning on top of paying hefty cleaning fee
The location and accommodations are perfect. These were quickly overshadowed by the owner's unreasonable checkout expectations and condescending tone. The owner provides the renter with 'check-out' documents, which are completely unreasonable for any guest of any lodging. On top of the steep cleaning fee you are charged he expects you to strip all the beds, start a load of laundry, start the dishwasher, empty all the trash cans, take all the trash and recycling to the curb, etc. While some might have the time to do all those things, we left very early in the morning to get ahead of traffic and when I emailed the owner to check in and let him know that we were unable to do most of the things he had on his list and that one of the loose keys provided had been misplaced, he became very condescending, speaking to me as if I was one of his grade school students and accusing me of having caused further damage to the residence than I was letting on. All because I had the decency to check in with him. We had allegedly left the door unlocked as well. On top of that, he decided to explain that his cleaning fee is actually larger than the already high fee charged and he 'generously' does not charge the extra amount. He asked what I felt was a fair amount of the large deposit that he should keep for us not abiding by his list of chores. Overall, great location and beautiful home, but if you would rather not have your getaway garnished with chores and rudeness, stay somewhere else. For an example of his inability to be wrong and tone, please standby for his response.

Perfect Location!
This was a perfect property for our conference visit and our 6-person team. Owner is a very good communicator and provided detailed info. We had no issues with our check-in or check-out, and he was gracious to make some rental period adjustments since we had some schedule changes. The house is exactly as pictured and is close to so many things. We chose it for ita proximity to the convention center. The neighborhood was quiet and we had zero issues walking back and forth. The parking situation was ideal as we had two vehicles which can be accommodated at this city property. Thank you for the opportunity to rent your property. The house is lovely and the ladies in the group adored the 2nd floor bathroom the most!!

Beautiful home
This home is beautiful! It was perfect for our group of friends. The location couldn't have been better, it was a short walk to the convention center, and a quick drive to the airport. Next time I need to be in Baltimore, this place is at the top of my list!

I purchased this 1840's row home as a shell and I renovated in 6 months with one helper.

I lived in this home from 2003 through 2005 and then Holly joined me. We moved next door and turned this into a vacation rental. I am self employed (real estate and other things) and Holly has PhD in Aquatic Ecology. Holly got a wonderful opportunity to work in Monterey Bay CA in 2012, so we've relocated! I still return to Baltimore occasionally for work.
