This is my favorite Savannah motel! Super cute theme, rooms are always very clean and beds are comfy. There is some noise from traffic but it’s not that bad. $20 a night for parking but that’s VERY reasonable! The lot also has an EV charger if you need one. Donuts in the morning are fantastic. My only complaint this trip was that there was an ashtray outside my room (room 119) and the smoke smell snuck in through the door when people were out there, but if they got rid of that smoking area and moved it away from the rooms, it would have been perfect! I will definitely be back!

Exactly as advertised. It's an older building, but well maintained. The staff was always beyond cheery and helpful. Popcorn every afternoon and donuts every morning (if you can handle that many donuts). Easily walkable to the market, river front, tour buses, museums, and honestly the entire historic district if you bring your walking shoes.

Great location within easy walking distance to the waterfront, shops, restaurants, and beautiful historic district homes and squares. Perfect for a pet and budget friendly one or two night stay in Savannah. The complimentary donuts for breakfast were amazing!!!

Two minor complanuts...Noisy bathroom fan that never seemed to shut off. Property is on a busy street, so a bit of traffic noise at times. Convenient location.

We stay in room 102 and 103. The sink in 102 was clogged. In the 103 the bathroom has losses tiles with mold and the room smell to humidity. In both rooms the A/C filter needs to be cleaned. They were completly full of dust. In general the hotel is clean, very friendly staff and very well situated.

Love this place. The best location. Staff is awesome and super friendly. My only complaint is the motion sensor light in the bathroom. That thing was brutal in the middle of the night. Other than that this is the only place I stay when I visit Savannah, been staying here since the 90’s.

great location close to downtown, walking distance even with kids. They give cute sodas and moon pies the place was clean, no bugs or mold. Only downfall is- our vent in the bathroom wouldn’t turn off and literally kept us up ALL night when we had to leave for the airport by 5 am so that was awful. Might just have been our room? Worth checking when you get there to see if it’s making noise, we ignored it assuming it wouldn’t be that bad

The room that we used had a door that was difficult to open, the air conditioning fan would not shut off so that the floor was very moist and slippery, the bathroom fan was loud and would not shut off either. The neon sign in front, which is such a vintage wonder was missing several lights, which makes the place look uncured for.
