Hanging in Savannah

This place is excellent. The location is amazing. You are right across from the park. When you step out you can hear the fountain of Forsyth Park. The bed is very comfortable and you can feel the history of the mansion. Loved it here and we will hopefully stay here again on our next Savannah adventure.

Vrbo Should Review And Rate

This property is beautiful. The location & neighborhood is perfect. The cleanliness not so great! The property manager never replied to my email requests to have the property cleaned. I explained the floors had dirt, dust and chips in the carpet. And the bathroom needed cleaning. No reply from the manager for the entire time of the stay. Very disappointing!

Dirty uncomfortable place in a beautiful setting

Location was amazing. 50 charge for early check in is a terrible vibe…Dust was EVERYWHERE. I have photos. check toilet paper holder, vents, ceiling fans…there were bugs on floor, a cheerio that we didn’t eat and the paper towels were dirty. Bugs had been smushed and killed in the curtains. I asked for more towels and was told no service was available. The bedding was DEFINITELY NOT CLEAN- pillows were flat old and not protected with zipper case covers. Mattresses are flat and old. We paid money to be exhausted and not sleep. Big bummer.

It was a very cute property! We loved the brick work and the style. It was also very close to most everything we wanted to see. Also, it is on the free shuttle line which was very helpful! Had to contact Deb a couple of times and she responded very quickly!

Historic Savannah

We loved the Vrbo, the look, size, location and especially the shower. It was within walking distance of almost all of historic Savannah. Our one comment would be that you should check supplies at the house before shopping. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, pots, plates and glasses and a few coffee pods, there was nothing else except salt and pepper.
