Can't beat the location. The unit was nice, clean and had everything we needed. We cooked dinner one night and ordered pizza the next. The bed was comfy and plenty of coffee. We will try to visit again if available. Definitely a favorite for us.

All of the reviews that were listed are correct. The place and location are exceptional. We do have a concern however. When we entered the downstairs apartment it was very musty smelling. Even after running the through-the-wall dehumidifier it still had a musty smell. Both tables were broken as well as one of the chairs. We addressed this to the owner and they assured us that this will be repaired. Our recommendation would be to check with the owner first before renting this apartment.

Richard, Thank you for your honest review. I have since replaced the chairs and fixed the broken tables. Thank you for the message to me about the issues. We try our best to stay on top of the smells that can be present with humidity and an older home. Deb

Communication with the host great!The little apartment we stayed in was right on Whitaker Street so we did have a bit a street noise. The mattress was not great. We both seemed to roll to the middle of the mattress. The electric fireplace had no where to plug it in. We had to pick up and move the fireplace to an outlet to plug it in. Otherwise, it was a nice stay. Very close to Forsyth Park. We loved that we could walk everywhere.

Loved our stay in Savannah! The house was beautiful and the small suite was perfect for my husband and me and Lilly (dog) It’s across the street from the beautiful park where we had our coffee and let Lilly play around. We rode our bikes a lot but it’s also an easy walk to the river street area. Plus you can always catch a bus. Comfy bed with lovely sheets and pillows. The area is just gorgeous!

This cozy gem sits right across from Forsyth Park. The bed was comfortable and for being on a main street road noise was minimal. The bathroom is small but serves its purpose. All you need. Walkable to coffee, groceries, and attractions. Would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay in Savannah. The unit was cozy and in a great location. We were very lucky to see snow which made the trip very special! We liked the apartment, and the bed was comfortable (which is very important to me!).We had one hiccup and that was the toilet didn't work the first morning we were there. The property manager was very quick to respond, but the owner was not. He did not keep us updated. The owner said that he was coming to look at the problem but no one came to the door. We had a very protective dog with us and couldn't let anyone in the unit unless we were there so we waited and waited and waited to hear if they were going to have to enter the unit or not. The property manager couldn't get ahold of the owner. We had to leave in the car to use the restroom at this time because we didn't have a working toilet! Well, we went around back and looked over the fence when we couldn't waste any more time our only full day in Savannah, around noon, and saw him working on the problem. We asked if he needed to get in the unit and said no. Unfortunately, we wasted the entire morning when a simple question could have been answered with some simple communication.
