Do not accept a room facing the highway side. Road noise is terrible.

Courtyard by Marriott Annapolis
The staff at the front desk were not knowledgeable and it was apparent the ladies didn’t like each other. The staff at the cafe were rude and the fruit cup for breakfast had mold. The room had no microwave and no full length mirror. Parking was an additional cost. 😡 Extremely expensive overnight ...

The staff was very nice and helpful. Parking was easy, and hotel is very conveniently located. Nice neighborhood with plenty of great dining options nearby. Room was small but clean. I would stay here again.
