The female receptionist was very helpful and courteous, but other than that not a lot to impress in my stay. The room was OK, but in need of some serious TLC (coffee machine and light above the bed not working, no plug in bathroom sink, toilet seat loose, whole apartment needed painting). The furnishings in the bedroom were passable. Very limited breakfast choice. I reported the main faults to a man on reception, who said that they would be passed to the maintenance team, but nothing was rectified in my 3 night stay. Not impressed.
When we checked in they gave us a handicapped room despite us not reserving a handicap room. We asked to have a regular room and the black female receptionist said that because we booked through Expedia that Expedia gave us a handicap room.
Next, our towels were very dirty with black stains on them. The breakfast was horrible and tasted as if they we from the previous morning and just reheated for the next day. The walls a very thin and you can hear people beside you in other rooms. Someone had a dog four rooms down and you could hear the dog barking. You could also hear the person above you talking. The bathroom door would not close so that you can lock it. Someone else’s belongings were in the drawers from the previous stay.
Overall, the location is not in the safest place and appears to be in a deserted area in the projects. I would not recommend this property until they are at least able to clean the towels, clean the rooms, serve fresher food to serve for breakfast, and at least fix the bathroom doors.
Positive experience overall!
Check-in was quick and easy. We did encounterd an issue with the room's fridge not working.
The staff deserves praise here – upon informing them, they promptly arranged for a replacement fridge with no fuss.
Their responsiveness and focus on fixing the problem significantly enhanced our stay and left a very good impression.
No pool, water pressure in shower low. Rooms were clean though

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property was quiet during my 4 night stay. Staff was friendly and always greeted me when I came back to the hotel.
The property is near a grocery store which was convenient. Unfortunately, my fridge was broken and moldy (would not get cold). So I was limited on purchase options.
Also, I noticed that the elevator permit was expired by more than 1 year and it made a weird sound every time I stepped in.
The property did have a breakfast option (hot meals on weekend) but the juices weren’t kept in a temp safe container. This resulted in the OJ expiring and fermenting. I stuck to making waffles each day since I knew they would be cooked correctly.
The only other complaint was that the Wi-Fi was spotty at times.
Don’t usually comment on my stays, but this hotel is a solid stay for the price. Staff is friendly, yes the property isn’t luxurious or very new, but it’s comfortable and functional. No red flags in terms of hygiene during my stay, and it’s extremely convenient to drive into Savannah proper. Great bang for your buck, with easily accessible essentials within walking distance. Solid 4/5
