Historic Inns of Annapolis

Safe location

No close parking. The ac/heat vent is so close to the bed that the air blows direction you and can be uncomfortable.

The Historic Inns of Annapolis have a distinct uniqueness in their history and lack of mainstream hotel feel. The location was close to the water and walkable to many shops and downtown Annapolis. They accepted pets, which I appreciated. The inside was unique and I enjoyed it, as someone who does not prefer chain hotels and prefers history and creativity over modernism and lack of uniqueness. The bathroom was tiny but the shower was updated and clean.

The room was TINY, the floor was slanted, the bed was a double (which is not great for 2 people) and not excessively comfortable, the pet fee was ASTRONOMICAL ($200!!) and was not told to me in advance. I was thinking maybe $35/ night for a small, 15 pound, hypoallergenic, clean, house-trained dog. TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS was outrageous- but I drove 4 hours to get there for a funeral, so I had to paid it. The floor was carpeted which is always a no no for me in hotels. Zero counter space in the bathroom- pedestal sink. I was hoping there would be some upgrades that kept up with modern day conveniences (like a counter in the bathroom, comfortable mattress, hard floors, and straight floors so I wasn't falling to the side when I walked across the room) but also kept the unique history. This was not the case. Best for a single person who is not too picky and enjoys the quirks (this would have been better if I was on my own), and don't bring a pet unless you basically want to double your cost.

The location, the comfy bed, tea in the morning

The noisy AC, the shower ( we could not get the water to run and asked for help. It turned out we needed to really yank the plastic dial) One light did not work and one morning there was a cockroach in the bathroom

It was in the middle of everything down town! And it has a ton of history and character.

The elevators smelled and made noises when going up and down, and we had someone walk in the room we didn't hear knock when in the shower. But the rest of the stay was absolutely amazing !!
