Savannah Bananas stay
Very clean, conveniently located to all of our activities this long weekend, including to Principal Park, downtown, Farmers Market and the zoo! Only negative was the overhead light/fan in the master bedroom randomly turned itself on in the middle of night several times. Owner was quick to respond but didn’t know why this happened.
