By far the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. Checked in at 1:18pm. Got to the room and the carpet was wet and it smelled of mold. Requested a room change. We were asked to leave the room we checked into. Then waited in the lobby for two hours on a room. Finally got in to the new room. It was never cleaned. Had mold all over the shower. Told front desk and no one ever cleaned it. The rooms smell. Nothing has been kept up. Some of the staff (not all) were incredibly rude. The car valet service was down. Had to hand a physical ticket and wait for our car. Took an hour for them to get it Saturday. Rooms. Service. Location. Price. Food. Literally everything about this hotel is bad.

First time to Savannah and we’re ready to come back. We stayed on the riverfront in a historic hotel right before a big weekend. Had we been able to book it for three days? We might still be there, but in the meantime, went ahead and booked a carriage house. Staff was amazing from the valet parking to the hospitality extraordinaire. I wish I would’ve gotten the ladies name. She gave us such a great welcome. And a woman the next day at the lobby desk was so very helpful in pointing out where Lucas theater was and how walkable the area was.. we will be returning !

The main dining option was good but did not take cash, which made it inconvenient. I was impressed with the public spaces cleaning crew. They did a great job keeping public areas spotless and inviting. There was a leak with the air conditioning vent in my guest room. It dripped all over the wood floor. Fortunately the room has a well designed ceiling fan/light combo that cooled the room after I shut off the air con. The drip was reported to the front desk upon checkout. The front desk staff was very welcoming and competent. Snacks provided daily were a nice touch. The Mgrs. reception was also nice, but was held in a very small space with limited seating. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Savannah.

Despite arriving late and tired, the staff welcomed us warmly. Our accomodations were fine (a bit different, given the historic nature) and we enjoyed our stay. The location was ideal. We utilized a wheelchair and River Street is not ideal for that situation, but we did enjoy our return to Savannah.
