It was a nice place to stay and within walking distance to most everything. Jake was very responsive to questions. The only issue we had was not knowing where to park when we got there bc street was full of construction vans. Might want to put in description that you can also park in the back. Two of the beds were squeaking and also missing mattress pads.Overall, though, a good place to stay!

A very good experience overall. Spacious rental with plenty of room to get comfortable and stretch out. Host was great to work with.Location was a bit dingy, but the house was on a nice street. Kitchen was a little barebones. Laundry room lacking (which I knew of beforehand).Had a nice time at the house.

The host was great, location and parking good, close to large park for kids but the unit had some issues. In the kitchen there were two broken cabinets, a drawer that didn’t close, broken faucet and broken window above the sink. The bathtub faucet was coming out of the wall and there were light bulbs missing in a few spots in the ceiling. The front porch chair was broken as well. There apparently hadn’t been much cleaning behind / under the couch as we found a collection of dirt, food, a playing card, etc. I explained all this to the host who [I’m confident] we address these issues immediately.

We had a lovely stay at this home! It is located in a quiet area of the city, around the corner from Forsyth park. The apartment was very clean and the check-in process was seamless.

Quick stop on the way to Miami

This is a very well appointed, clean space in a great location. Easily accessible from the highway, within easy walking distance to downtown Savannah, but far enough away from the crowds and noise. The neighborhood is safe enough that I felt comfortable letting my teenage kids wander to the nearby squares alone. The common area is very spacious with a lot of room to spread out. Jake, the owner, was communicative and very accommodating. We’ll definitely make this a spot to save for the next time we pass through.

Nice place, short walking distance to most tour meetups/some museums 0.4-0.6 miles, and about 0.8-1mile away from the river front area. Lower level apartment, people above have kids that seemed to run around alot rather loudly til after midnight, granted we visited while schools were out.

Tidy place

The location is a little further out from all the shops and restaurants than I was hoping for. The place was very tidy and clean. The backyard could use a little maintenance. The ice maker was not working when I arrived but the owner was made aware and he stated he would have it fixed. The pressure in the shower is very low not sure if that’s a building issue or not. Overall the place was great and worth staying at.

This was NOT a Southern Charmer with a Private porch. We checked out 30 minutes after checking in. (No form of refund/compensation for the state of the unit was even considered by the host.)Photos posted online must be professionally lit. The unit is very dark, dusty, furniture is much older and damaged as compared to the fresh photos online. Additionally there was mold in the only shower. The porch is not private but available to the entire building. The neighborhood does not feel safe. The charm of sitting on the front porch in Savannah enjoying a sweet ice tea and good conversation is lost with holes in the wicker, an old auto-repair shop directly across the street and construction all around.
