Ok if all you want is a place to sleep

The bedroom/sitting room is as the pictures show however if you like to unpack your clothes for a few days stay, there's no dresser.The kitchen is poorly equipped for even basics like cooking breakfast. Only 1 mug, a rusty kettle and pitted pans that couldn't be used.As others have noted, the host isn't responsive.The wifi network and password provided at check-in didn't work, took the host over an hour to respond with correct information.Similarly my request for additional toilet paper and another mug took 12h for a response and almost 24h to receive.

Great historic place within walking distance!

This place was great and I’d highly recommend staying here vs. a hotel to get a better experience of what Savannah truly offers. It’s within 5 minutes of Forsyth Park and free parking right in front. The place is clean, has almost everything you’d need (silverware, detergent, towels, etc.), and was a great place to relax and lay your head. Our only issue was getting in as we couldn’t figure out how to get the key but John replied swiftly and we figured it out.

Would not recommend

While the location is great, this property was extremely disappointing. Primary concern was the lack of security- downstairs door needs to be replaced, upstairs door does not properly lock and can be pushed right open even after securing it with the code and lock on the inside, and the window in the bathroom has no way to secure it whatsoever. There were also holes in the ceiling in the bathroom, which is another major red flag. My husband and I booked the property for 3 nights but only spent the first night here, as the bed was also absurdly uncomfortable. When I brought up my concerns to the property manager, I got no response. Very unprofessional and a complete waste of our hard earned money, unfortunately.

Overall good location and nice place, but bad communication with property manager

Stayed here for a week with my friends on spring break and the apartment is in a decent location and is nice inside, but the communication with the property manager was terrible. Not once did They respond to the several questions we had. For example, the door to the apartment room did not Lock, so we had to leave it open the whole time. (The passcode given didn’t work) and the passcode to the lockbox that would get us into the building also didn’t work. Tried messaging and calling the property manager several days during our stay and got 0 responses. Luckily no one walked in and stole our belongings. Very disappointed with respect to this, but the place itself was clean (except for a friendly lizard we encountered in the bedroom!) unfortunately would not recommend if you are looking to stay at a place with a responsive property manager.

The place is definitely located nicely as far as historic district and accessibility to Savannah. John is a lackluster host unfortunately. He seems to be bothered with questions or problems… Who knows maybe that’s just his personality. The place was not exactly clean. A lot of the necessities you would think it would be on site were not. C

Great stay in a great location

We were very happy with our stay. Great location and good communication/response with host. The only thing that I would be sure to advertise on the site very well is that the house is on the second floor with a large flight of steps. If it is on the site, I did not see it. The steps could be a definite barrier for those who may have orthopedic issues. Otherwise, it was great and I would recommend to others!

Loved It

Overall, the place was gorgeous and I loved the view from the bedroom windows. Everything was clean and neat for us when we got there. The only thing missing was salt in the kitchen cabinet lol. I also wish the host got back to me throughout the week as well. I messaged a couple of times and still haven't gotten a response. When we did communicate, though, the host was kind and understanding.

Great, But…

Super great location, beautiful interior, really really responsive property manager! But a couple of misses. The AC didnt work very well - which is pretty important in Savannah during the summer time. There are room fans available for each room for added coolness, but just a heads up. We also only had one clean towel, the other was balled up in a hamper, so cleanliness/house keeping was questionable. We made it work and had the best time on our trip, but knowing those factors are a big deal for some wanting to share. Have to say incredibly nice and responsive PM. Thanks for an incredible location and a beautiful place to stay!

AMAZING property and location with a TERRIBLE property manager!

From our first inquiry the property manager was VERY RUDE. I simply inquired about property issues other residence faced and John, the manager, was immediately aggressive about he doesn’t read reviews and even offered a refund, confident I would only give a bad review (which he doesn’t read anyway). After getting Vrbo involved wanting the refund offered due to his attitude, which never happened even after he suggested it, my spouse and I chalked up and headed to Savannah hoping for the best. I was extremely happy with the property upon entry! The location was perfect, just a few blocks from Forsyth Park. The issues others claim appeared to be fixed, thank goodness, and we had a great vacation. It’s ashame such a beautiful property has an awful manager. I do recommend anyone to stay at this property but fair warning regarding communication with John.

STAY AWAY!!!

Do not let the pictures fool you, this is a terrible property that is not cleaned and the "host" is an incredibly rude person who hung up on me when I first contacted him. You can see the patterns in the comments here. Dirty, unresponsive, broken items. After hanging up on me the "host" moved to a text only system where he lectures guests on being polite. He also said I made his life harder because I dared to question the cleanliness of the bathroom. So expecting a clean property when I arrive and expecting the host to actually clean it if it is not clean is bad for business? The property is neglected with huge weeds out front and I found hair in the drain when I arrived, and sent him pictures of the unclean sink in the bathroom and he blamed it on hard water stains and then continued to berate me over text. Yet, I was able to clean it in a few seconds using the cleaner left in the bathroom cabinet. The shower does not work properly and floods the tub and does not give decent water pressure because the cheap faucet cannot change from tub filler to shower. That is why all of my showers made me stand in a foot of water. This was AFTER he came and fixed the tub that was not draining properly. Somehow he missed this when he supposedly cleaned the bathroom. Hair caked onto the return air vent, mold at every AC vent, ceiling leaks, lights and outlets that do not work. No instructions on how to use the lock into the unit. No key for the back door to the weed-filled "courtyard" that should be an emergency exit. The dishwasher was not emptied out, the bed sheets had stains on them, and the rug in the bedroom is FILTHY. Are these the "high quality linens" advertised? The closet is full of random stuff and there is no room to even get to the three hangers to hang up your clothes. The building is a typical neglectful Savannah landlord but if it had been clean and the host been responsive and polite it could have been a good experience.

Savanna trip

The house was clean and in a good location. However, the lock on the front door downstairs as well as the front door to the apartment and the back door of the apartment did not lock! We could not get the door to lock no matter what we did. We tried to contact the host and still haven’t received a response. There were only two towels in the entire house and we had 3 guests. Also the pull out bed was completely broken. Our third person had to sleep on a broken pull out and there were no sheets or anything to put on it.

Deeply disappointed by this one I'm afraid. When we got there it was obvious it hadn't been cleaned since the last guest stayed. The bed was unmade, there was a full trash bag still in the trash waiting to be taken out, a towel had been haphazardly tossed into the shower, and there was a used q-tip on the bathroom sink. The Wi-Fi was non-functional, and it was unclear which we were supposed to connect to as we wire only told to connect to SAMP, but there was only samp166a, samp166, and others following the same name scheme. It was trial and error and when we found the one the password did work with it told us we were connected but had no internet. I ended up using data the entire stay, which was deeply frustrating. It is also misleadingly listed, as the master bedroom and living room are in fact a single room with no door connected directly to the kitchen and the only other bedroom has a very poor quality, slightly broken, pull out couch. All of this might, Might, have been fixable if the owner ever responded to us. I messaged him using the Vrbo app and simply never heard back. The neighborhood is lovely and would recommend it to anyone interested, but for your own sake, please find a better property to do it in

Great location....

Using app was easy...check in easy.... location quiet and easy access to everything. However, the property could use some upgrades. Was not able to locate linens for sofa bed and with only one towel each (and washcloth) had to do laundry daily. AC was great. Outside curb needs attention as bushes are very overgrown.

Our perfect Savannah getaway!

My daughters (10 and 13) and I loved this house! The location was PERFECT - only about a block from Forsyth Park and the free DOT shuttle to River Street! 3 minute drive to Kroger (supermarket), 7 minute drive to Leopold's (Ice Cream) if we were going after the shuttle ended (during which time parking is free and plentiful, anyway). The owner is extremely friendly and helpful. We had a few small requests and he was very prompt and generous in helping us out. Check in and check out were seamless. The property, itself, was amazing. We felt like we were true locals, living in an historic home on a tree lined street. Everything was walkable, including the downtown, if you felt like strolling through beautiful streets and parks along the way, or the free shuttle was just a block away. I was concerned about a few slightly negative reviews, but none of those concerns or complaints were justified, from our experience. We had no complaints at all and my daughters wished we didn't have to leave to go home! Thank you for an amazing vacation!

No running water and can’t flush the toilet. I do not recommend this place.

No running water and can’t flush the toilet. I do not recommend this place. Previous guests had the same issue, but our host John failed to inform us before checking in. What a way to spend your holiday with your family. I feel bad for the next guests who will have no water and I realized I should have left a note in the house. If anyone is having same issue getting refund from this rental, don’t waste your time connecting the host, just dispute your charges with your credit card company and you will be refunded right away. Upon confirmation of my booking through Vrbo, I was provided with host’s phone number and when we called, it was a different person who pick up and had no idea how her number was listed on John’s property. We called Vrbo customer service and finally got John’s number and when we called him and texted him with our issue with no water, he refuses to talk with us and asked to send message through the app. Every time we called, there was automated messages set up in he’s phone saying “Hi how can I help? If this is regarding a reservation hosts cannot communicate outside of the messenger that you can find within the app or website in your itinerary. Someone on our team will answer your question quickly.” We checked in to the property past 9pm and unfortunately, it was too late for us to find a hotel. Our son had passed out and all the luggage were unloaded into the house upstairs. The main bedroom was okay to stay but the 2nd room with foldout couch is not in good condition for anyone to sleep in. Sheets were dirty with stains and blood marks, I found bugs crowing around. I have pictures of all this for evidence. Kitchen carpet is very dirty, and some mole found on ceiling by the laundry machine. House has dust everywhere and the photos you don’t see on the Vrbo website such as bathtub and stairway to 2nd floor is pretty disappointing and needs lot of work. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Most unpleasant rental experience of my life.
