Quality Inn Savannah Midtown
We stayed here for 2 nights. The property needs some work done on it to be given a better rating. The bed was comfortable and there is ample parking. Hard to believe the included breakfast got good reviews. Sakura Buffet is close by for a good evening meal.

Beautiful location on the river with really comfortable rooms and within walking distance of anything you might need. My husband and I particularly enjoyed the daily happy hour where Brad provided excellent service and we met other folks staying at the inn.
