Overall pleasant stay at this location. HVAC struggled due to excessive heat and humidity. The HVAC challenges resulted in periods of high humidity indoors which promoted "pet" smells upstairs.

Great location!
This property was in an excellent location for downtown Savannah activities. Close but still quiet. Our son actually roller bladed in the road because thru traffic was so light. The property itself is probably better suited for younger, single folks. The bedroom doors all automatically locked and you had to remember a different code for each door. This was a hassle with kids! Also, the stairs were really steep. Kind of treacherous for the 45+ crowd with bad knees! We knew there was only 1 full bath and thought we could make it work since we were only in town for the weekend. Yeah, no. One bathroom for 5 people was not a good idea. The bathroom itself was nice and the shower was great. No complaints! The place was quiet and very clean. The beds were comfy and there were plenty of supplies (dish soap, shower gel (a surprise), trash bags, paper towels, etc.).

Why they chose this property

The Beach Institute Neighborhood, on the east side of Savannah's Historic District, was developed in the 1850s by investors for the Savannah-Albany Railroad seeking to create housing for their workers. Overall, it was an integrated neighborhood with a strong German presence and black ownership as early as the 1860s. The predominant building type was the double one-story cottage. These cottages are not found anywhere else in Historic Savannah. The streets are tight, and homes abut the sidewalk, creating a very urban, city neighborhood atmosphere.

In the 1980s, the King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation and the Historic Savannah Foundation aimed to resist the gentrification and displacement occurring throughout downtown Savannah because of the historic preservation movement. The effort was successful, and today is considered a model for conscious historic preservation planning throughout the nation. Because of these initiatives, the established Beach Institute Historic Neighborhood remains the oldest surviving African American neighborhood in Savannah.

What makes this property unique

Built in 1867 by George Bulloch and Cyrus Campfield, this unique 150-year-old cottage duplex house has an upper loft apartment with historic charm and a private balcony with a vintage spiral staircase to the deck below that overlooks the home’s private courtyard. Please note that the courtyard and lower deck may be shared with guests staying in the first floor apartment.
