Belle étape à Annapolis
Pros:

Hôtel historique composé de plusieurs bâtiments, très bien situé dans le centre d’Annapolis. Nous avions pris le service de voiturier. Personnel très aimable et serviable, nous avons apprécié l’accueil en français. Chambre confortable qui correspond à la description sur le site.

Cons:

Petit bémol : il n’y a pas de service de petit déjeuner à l’hôtel mais c’est bien indiqué dans les conditions. Il y a des cafés à proximité.

Cool historic inn, great location.
Pros:

Great location and such an interesting historic hotel.

Cons:

We’ve stayed here twice and both times had fire alarm evacuations. Apparently that’s unusual so we will definitely stay here again.

Would not recommend or stay there again
Pros:

The location was excellent and the staff very pleasant

Cons:

The bathroom was impossible to maneuver due to the small size and I am not a big person. The shower pressure was a trickle. and could hardly turn around. The toilet needed repaired as it kept running. The heater blew in my face all night due to it being a wall heater and not distributing in the room. The bed was incredibly uncomfortable and had not support. Would suggest to replace the bed. The pillows felt old and need new stuffing.
To top it off there was no coffee in the lounge as promised on several mornings.. Overall, we will not recommend or stay there again.

We come every year and would not stay anywhere else!
Pros:

Excellent location. Quiet.

Cons:

Shower floor was a little slippery. Did not feel like there was much of a non-skid surface on it. Made me a little nervous.

The Governor Calvert meets most specifications for a satisfactory stay, and it is conveniently locat
Pros:

The hotel is very convenient to all of downtown Annapolis, within walking distance of everything.
The room was clean and comfortable no problems there.

Cons:

Not having on-site parking was a nuisance, as was having to wait until 4 to check in, although I know that is normal for most hotels. It meant that we had to find alternative parking until we could check in. Also, no breakfast.

Overall, a good stay in a great location.
Pros:

It was located right on Main Street, in downtown. The staff were very attentive and always worried about us, helping at every moment. They replied to our messages immediately and were truly helpful.

Cons:

I didn’t like having to do the check-in and check-out in a different building. With the snow and the suitcases, it was a bit annoying. Also, the heater was right next to the bed, so the noise was annoying throughout the night.
