Peaceful spot within perfect walking distance to nearly everything, and with Forsyth Park outside your door you'll want to be outside as much as possible. The bed was almost too comfortable, since there isn't a ton of natural light, so if you have trouble waking up just watch out for it!

I’m very disappointed in the VRBO I rented. I was in town for a wedding, I got in late so I couldn’t assess the place until the next day. It had a musty smell to it, especially the bedding. I contacted the property manager about changing it. She was nice about it & sent somebody over immediately. I was surprised when I told the cleaning lady the sheets had stains & the bedspread had a horrible smell. She told me she understood & threw the bedspread on the floor & changed the sheets, but then when I came back in the room, she left & put the dirty bedspread back on the bed! I had no time to call back. This was an immediate family wedding so we had a ton of plans that I had to get ready for. I stopped at the store to get some air fresheners which helped. Also, every time the noisy people upstairs either took a shower or flushed the toilet, I got the worst sewage smell coming from the closet. There is only one way in and out of this place. There are two doors in the kitchen that are locked shut that you can’t access & neither of the 2 windows open so getting fresh air in this place is impossible. This is definitely not safe. I had also told the cleaning lady there was a huge dead bug on the floor. She saw it, but left it there! I can’t believe I paid that much money to stay there!
Dead cockroach on floor
Bathroom needs a deep cleaning
Stains on sheets

Wonderful place! Great location. Only complaint we have is of someone is staying upstairs, you will hear them walking at all times. We were woken up each morning before we were ready to get up, by the noise upstairs.

My husband and I stayed here for our 25 anniversary. Everything about our stay was perfect! The bed was extremely comfortable! Great location right across from Forsyth Park. Extremely clean and comfortable accommodations. Within walking distance of most things we wanted to see and do. The host was amazing to work with and check-in/check-out process was a breeze! We will definitely return to Savannah and would love to stay here again!

Cozy and lovely space right by Forsyth Park. If you're looking for a hotel experience, this may not be the spot for you, but if you appreciate the historic feel of Savannah and want a similar space that feels like a home away from home, this is perfect! Loved having the full kitchen and location couldn't be better.There's a great cafe that is a short walk in the park. Walking thru Forsyth for breakfast was a great start to each day. Everything I wanted to do was either walkable or a quick bus ride. I think I used my car once thru my stay.Host was very helpful in sharing suggestions for great restaurants and things to do. Will absolutely stay here again on my next visit.
