We had a wonderful stay! The rental was super cute, beautifully furnished, and very well stocked with everything we needed. Communication with the host was perfectand the location was fantastic as well. The only thing to note is that while the listing is pet-friendly, it may not be ideal for dogs due to the incredibly steep spiral stairs. Additionally, the stairwell could benefit from better lighting, as it was a bit dim — especially when navigating those stairs.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the charm and comfort of the property!
Enjoyed the area in which to explore by foot , whether it be for the squares and their history, the shopping, the beauty of the architecture and of the beautiful trees and landscape!
Perfect location. Walkable to many sites and restaurants. Perfect size. Close to DOT shuttle for transportation in town We would stay here again. Felt safe. Only issue is no defined parking

I lobed how this property was so close to everything. The space was clean, decorated retro like. Very comfortable bed and it had all the necessary features you’ll need to make your stay comfortable. One con I would say is the stairs. But other than that it was perfect!
Nice little studio that is very close to everything. We would have walked everywhere, except it was awfully hot. Instead we took the free Purple Dot Express from the stop at the end of the street. Since we arrived by bicycle, it was so nice to have a spot to have them safe and secure. Thank you so much for having us.

The convenient location of the property was nice. Very close to everything in Savannah. But the property itself was not impressive for what we paid, being an alleyway. The first door with a security lock was a thin, wooden door - a bit sketchy- and there wasn’t a mention of the narrow winding staircase we had to climb to get to our room.
The room itself was clean and the bathroom was fine. The neighbors were in close quarters with the shared patio and if there was a conversation or someone walking around, we heard it all so it was not very relaxing.
If you’re looking for just a place to sleep and you’re spending all of your time moving around Savannah, then this place would be fine.
Very clean and comfy. Everything you need if you are low maintenance. Bit of an odd entrance. Have to go through back alley and up some very old and small stairs. Did not hang out in courtyard because it is shared with neighbors and there were shirtless guys hanging out there. Other than that, an enjoyable stay. Close to parks and shops. Comfy bed, good water pressure in shower. Small fridge and freezer supplied as well as an oven and cooking utensils. Additional gate locks for safety. Once we figured out where it was located, everything went well.

So much to say about this place. The location - amazing, the design - beautiful, the bed - comfortable. We had an amazing stay here for 3 nights while we were in town for a wedding. My wife and I both worked remotely from the rental unit on the first night, then proceeded to enjoy the silence and ambiance of the unit for the next two nights. During our stay we found ourselves walking around Forsyth park or into town quite often, the location is unbeatable! Our favorite part of the trip was our final night there where we spent the evening in the courtyard and were able to meet the hosts as well as the other tenet. It was a perfect atmosphere.I do not know how soon we will be back in Savannah but next time we come, we will absolutely be looking for this unit again. 10/10!

I recently stayed at this charming apartment and overall had a pleasant experience. The location is fantastic, with nearby free parking for those who are resourceful. The neighborhood is quiet and offers easy access to restaurants, parks, squares, SCAD, and the historic district. Additionally, the bed was comfortable, the room was clean, and the bathroom was spacious, with a hot shower and an ample supply of towels. The functioning AC added to the comfort of the stay, although it was a bit noisy.On the downside, the access to the apartment door is through an alley that is cluttered with trashcans, which may not be ideal for some guests. The steep and somewhat intimidating stairway leading to the door could pose a challenge for individuals with mobility issues. Furthermore, there was a significant amount of light intrusion during the night, which affected the overall ambiance of the apartment.The kitchen, although equipped with essentials like paper towels, dish soap, and a sponge, felt a bit cramped and lacked some basic cooking essentials due to limited space and a small fridge. The absence of items like salt, pepper, cooking oil, and condiments made it less user-friendly for those who enjoy cooking during their stay.In summary, this apartment is a cozy and convenient choice for those seeking a peaceful retreat in a prime location. However, potential guests should consider the accessibility challenges and the limited kitchen amenities before booking their stay.

Extremely clean, well appointed property in the perfect location! This was originally supposed to be a couples trip but we ended up having to bring our 4 year old. There was plenty of room for a toddler bed to be put in the corner. Would definite chose this property again. Our single complaint is that there is a street light outside of the window which brightens the room. Could use a black out curtain or require the person staying to bring an eye mask. Street was quiet.

Perfect location! Near Forsyth park and nice walk to river front through beautiful historic district. Charming and very comfortable.
We were in town for a wedding at Chatham square and it was perfect for our stay. It was a cute space with everything we needed and reasonably priced for the location.
This was a lovely property for a couple. Not very large, but all the essentials: queen bed, stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, bathroom, shower, one table with two chairs, working A/C, a washer/dryer. A very cute classic carriage house with a small courtyard, not far from many fun parts of Savannah's downtown. Would recommend!

It looked shady at first since the entrance was in an alleyway, but it was cute place right in the middle of the historic district. Walking distance from everything.
