Love this property and this is the second time I have stayed here. You can't get closer to gate 1 of the Naval Academy, and a short walk to downtown. The place smells wonderful when you enter, very clean and fresh. Great bed, linens and towels. The courtyard in the back is a great place to relax and have morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The parking spot is an added bonus and rare for a downtown location. I highly recommend!

The location is amazing. Use of the parking garage is an excellent add. Temperature control was exactly what we needed…and that was not easy given wildly fluctuating temperatures during our stay. The kitchen was large and had everything we needed. We even did a little laundry as we were in the midst of a lengthy trip. This is the place to stay in Annapolis!
