This property is in a perfect location that is very walkable and one block from River street which made it very convenient. Unfortunately the room had an infestation of flies in the bathroom and the sheets had stains and hair on them which we didn't notice until right before we went to get into bed. We ended up sleeping on top of the comforter and kept the bathroom door closed to prevent the bugs from coming out. Also it was incredibly noisy outside of our room, especially for a Sunday night. Overall I would not recommend booking a room at this location.

We had an adjoining room, the door between the two rooms were so thin we could hear everything the couple next door were saying. We were given a King size bed (no problem) but the pillows were the size fit for a crib, get larger pillows and insulate the doors between rooms!!!

It was very noisy all night long and a lot of the staff was on their cell phones. Every time I saw them there was one lady that worked the desk in the afternoon when we checked in and she was there the next day. Also, she was the nicest lady of all, and I think she came in in the afternoon and work till late at night. Everybody else did not even speak to us hardly Restaurant people did not speak. The food was fairly good. Enjoyed that it was just a very noisy room.

Property is at walkable distance from the River Street. They offered a good breakfast and coffee 24 hours. Friendly yet professional personnel. Lobby, breakfast area and room very clean, on the other hand stairs at the hotel were not clean.

The pool area is full of auto exhaust from the busy streets. The hallway on the main floor outside from front to back was nasty. Other than these two issues it was a great place to stay.

Located in the Savannah historic district, it was easy to walk to shops and restaurants. Our room was clean and the bed was comfy. Good hotel for the money. The reception staff was friendly and the concierge gave us helpful tips on our day trip to Tybee Island. Would definitely stay here again.

Very basic and unattractive property. Concrete block construction creating concrete walls in the rooms. Location was only 1 block from river walk but neighborhood felt a bit sketchy. My stay was uneventful, and the property seemed very full.

We just spent one night here as a rest stop from Fort Lauderdale. Florida to home in North Carolina. Actually the photos online were a lot nicer than actuality. They need to upgrade their toilets to a higher seating position. We’re 75 and it’s quite a chore. The bathroom floor was very slick as soon as we got there. Don’t know if it’s what they used to clean or what but had to be very careful when entering it. I stood still and my foot slid. Other than that it was ok. The bed was comfortable, the room itself was kinda tight. Thankfully it was only for one night. And no, if I ever do this trip again I’ll look at other lodging
