Perfect venue and location for a single family

My family of 4 had the absolute best week in this historic home. The space is open and bright and extremely comfortable and the location is central to everything. We walked everywhere with a 6 and 8 year old and the trolley stop is nearby. The deli downstairs is wonderful and there are a number of cafes nearby. We loved being right on Troupe square and so close to the cathedral and Forsyth park and Jones street. We loved playing board games in the bright bay window overlooking the square. I can’t recommend this place enough!Two notes for planning purposes - the 2 beds are not behind closed bedroom doors; they are out in the open like a studio apartment, but we brought white noise machines which made the setup easy for us. I actually loved the openness as it allowed us to really connect as a family/ Also, you can hear the footsteps upstairs, so also recommend white noise for that reason.

Christmas in Savannah!

Don’t hesitate to book this wonderful place for your stay in Savannah. It’s a beautiful house with many original architectural features but with all modern amenities and beautifully restored. The Layout is a bit untraditional but worked wonderfully for us, 2 adults and a doggie. The location is fantastic, we walked easily to all our favorite restaurants and activities. The property manager is incredibly responsive and very thoughtful, even brought us a beautiful Christmas Apple pie.

Didn’t want to leave!

We had a wonderful weekend at the Mayor’s Mansion on Harris St. It’s beautifully decorated to blend historic and modern together to create a very comfy home. There’s tons of space, and my favorite places were the 2 bay windows that looked out over the square and the Deli cafe below. My pup really loved looking out the windows too. The open concept is great for a couple or couple with child or teen. The AC units worked great and the king bed was very comfy. Even the bathrooms were large and beautiful.! We never had trouble finding a free parking space on the street. The location is perfect to walk anywhere within the historic district. I hope to visit again soon! Jenny was an awesome host that was very quick to respond.

A perfect Location to see all of Savannah

We arrived later than expected and the property manager had all the lights on for us when we arrived. The home was in a great location and we never had an issue finding free parking on the street. The home is across from a beautiful square. The home was very comfortable and had all of the amenities you could ask for. We can't wait to return!

Historic Savannah

This place is in the perfect location of downtown Historic Savannah. It has a deli on the first floor that you are staying above that is perfectly convenient if you are looking for quick bite. Food and people were great! But as a result the area has a bit of foot traffic. You have a square across the home that is great to stroll with your dogs. There is an apartment above you that given the age of the home, you can clearly hear footsteps and a bit of chatter. But thankfully not too bad and comes with a historic home. The home is beautiful, has beautiful windows throughout and great space! The two beds do not have doors so not entirely private if you need that. We traveled as a couple, mother in law and two dogs an it worked out well. Jenny was always responsive and clearly has experience taking care of her guests. The location is perfect because you can walk to a lot of restaurants, attractions, river street, etc. There is street parking, not a designated spot but there were plenty and never a problem. Highly recommend!

Great location and beautiful space!

The home is beautiful and location is great and picture perfect. If you are looking for an ultra safe area to stay that is central to everything and has all of the charm of Historic Savannah, then this is the place! A couple things to note that are not complaints (we had a great stay) just information for future guests: - It is an historic space and does not have central air conditioning, just individual room units, so if you are sensitive to the heat and humidity and require a strong air conditioned space to be comfortable, you will not find that here or any ceiling fans. I suggest bringing a strong fan cooling fan to help be comfortable. - there is no curtain or doors blocking off the bedroom in the middle of the home from the kitchen or living room, so if you are wanting or needing privacy from other guests you are staying with this may be a problem for you. - There is a lovely restaurant below that I would recommend eating at! But this does create a lot of street noise, especially when they close up for the evening and bring inside their tables. There is also a decent amount of street noise from street sweeping a couple days a week in the middle of the night. - There is no water filter or purifier, just tap water. So bring bottled water or a Brita pitcher with you. - Street parking is pretty easy, but you will need to move your car during street cleaning days. Overall still a wonderful place to stay to properly experience Savannah!! Would recommend!

Perfect Location

We had a wonderful stay on E. Harris St. on Troup Square. The location could not have been more perfect for us. My husband was working in Savannah for the week and we brought our 16 month old and small dog with us. This location offered everything we needed. A short walk to so many of the historic landmarks, lovely walks for our dog, convenient spots to entertain our little one in the park or a playground nearby, and the wonderful perk of the Urban Deli at street level, which we thoroughly enjoyed their offerings and the endless entertainment for our daughter to view the patrons dining below out the beautiful bay windows. The open plan all on one level worked very well and was a rare find in the historic district that also offered a pet friendly stay. The kitchen was great, and the bathrooms and other accommodations had everything we needed. The only drawback was the second sleeping space, which is in the hallway. The location actually was not an issue for us, but the bed orientation was confusing and mattress was not as comfortable as the main bed. We added some of our own covers and oriented the pillows to sleep in the long orientation with headboard on the side for my mom who came with us and that made a big difference. I would say this would not be ideal for 2 couples, but would be fine for kids. All in all, I would highly recommend this stay in Savannah if you want to live like a local in the historic district of magical Savannah. We loved it!

Our Stay in Savannah

Pro's (there are many) Location - you can walk anywhere in the city The property itself - the character you are looking for with the modern comfort you need Charm - you can really feel the history in the home Spacious - well suited for 2 to 4 people to be VERY comfortable Etc. Etc. You won't regret your stay. Note the bedrooms are not "private" however, they are separated and provide plenty of privacy while sleeping. The only con is that the AC is not central and during the summer the house does not cool off as much as would be desired. That said, we were never uncomfortable, just not as cool as would be preferred. At night the house cooled down and was quite comfortable.

Lovely in Every Way

If you want a standard vacation, book a hotel. But if you want a genuine Savannah visit, reserve this historic gem and feel like a local. We fell in love with this charming apartment. It gave us all the authentic and historic Savannah vibes! It's an old building, so it has a few quirks but they only make the place more lovable! Although the building is old, the apartment is nicely remodeled and very well-appointed. Each day, we enjoyed our morning coffee sitting at the small table in the bay window overlooking Troup Square to sip and watch the world wake up. (Thanks for dropping off a big, new coffee maker!) Having the cafe below was an added treat. The location proved to be an excellent and happy medium, making it very walkable whether you're headed north to downtown or south to Forsyth Park and the Starland District. In fact, once we parked our car, it never moved for four days. Thanks for sharing your lovely unit for our sister trip.

Weekend trip

Overall, my friends and I enjoyed our stay. The unit was cozy and clean. Unfortunately, there weren’t any real bedrooms in the unit, so we didn’t have much privacy. The first bed is located in the main hallway just beyond the front door and the other is located in the middle of a an open space right by the kitchen. Additionally, this unit is a corner unit and directly above a local cafe. The street noise can be very loud at times, especially in the mornings. Other than the lack of privacy and the street noise, my friends and I actually enjoyed the unit. The property manager was very nice and very attentive. I just wish the listing was more specific and clarified the layout of the unit better.
