Courtyard by Marriott Annapolis
I stayed one night as a single female traveler. I felt safe and comfortable on the property. I know I can always count on Marriott to have comfortable beds and pillows. I had a lovely nights rest and didn’t eat there so idk how the breakfast was. Great place for a one night stay on way to early flight ...
