My friend and I had a great 3 day stay here to explore Savannah. The space was roomy and looked like the pictures. As far as amenities, it had everything we needed. We appreciated the gift bag of snacks as well! We really enjoyed the location of this Airbnb because it was outside of the tourist zone but still walkable to the Historic District and also to the Starland neighborhood where we spent a lot of our time. I would definitely stay here again!

I have stayed in many Airbnb’s over the years. This one is top notch! You can tell by the open communication, detailed instructions, prompt responses and the thoughtful gifts left for us upon checking in, these owners take pride in what they are doing and want to be successful. This is why I stay in Airbnbs instead of a hotel. We had everything we needed for our weekend in Savannah. Clean crisp linen and towels, ample soap and paper towels and a clean comfortable space. We felt welcome and right at home.

This was a nice apartment close to everything we wanted to see while in town for a Wedding. Walkable and plenty of room in the unit to stretch out and relax when day was done. Amenities nearby such as Kroger and a good lunch/coffee/ Mate spot. Enjoyed being upstairs and though on what seemed a busy road found that traffic was very minimal and calm in evenings and over night. Had a good stay.

Had a fantastic time in Savannah. Great location near Forsyth Park. Extremely comfortable bed and full kitchen with coffee. Loved the private outdoor seating area.

Brandon and Chase are extremely wonderful hosts! I have stayed at many Airbnb‘s and this one by far was the most impressive as far as the items provided to make you feel right at home. Most Airbnb‘s these days are nice, but don’t provide little things like toiletries and enough toilet toilet paper and laundry detergent to get you started much less a gift basket with tasty snacks, and a bottle of wine! My husband and I were both very impressed by this and even though we didn’t need all of these items, they showed an extreme amount of care not often seen. Additionally, the location is perfect and walkable to the park and numerous other restaurants. We will definitely be back and we’ll choose one of their properties to stay at. Veratina was a lovely restaurant that served Italian fair very nearby. Just outstanding food and adorable!! Mate factor was a darling café that felt fairytale. The apartment is very comfortable and roomy and we have 0 complaints. This is a 10 out of 10

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The home was beautiful, well-maintained, and priced just right for the experience. The location was perfect—close enough to the historic district to easily explore, but far enough away to enjoy the quiet, peaceful mornings Savannah is known for. The hosts truly went above and beyond with their communication, checking in before, during, and after our stay to make sure everything was perfect. They were also incredibly accommodating with an early check-in, which we really appreciated. The sweetest touch was the birthday gift waiting for me when we arrived—it made the stay feel extra special and personal. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Savannah!

This was a fantastic stay. The place was extremely clean and thoughtfully stocked with most everything you could possibly need—no need to bring extra supplies. Bring ice trays if you’re addicted to ice like me. There is no icemaker. They even had extras like toothpaste, toothbrushes, and flip-flops, which was a really nice touch. It’s located on the east side of town, so if you’re a foodie and plan to hit a lot of restaurants, just be prepared to Uber or enjoy a bit of a walk. Overall, a very comfortable and well-prepared Airbnb—I’d definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed the quite neighborhood and tree lined street away. Easy parking and not far from all areas of interest.
