This is a great place if you are looking for a historic feel stay in a quiet area. Parking on the street was easy and free. Place was clean and very charming. This is not a place to go wild and throw parties. It is more for the explorers, calm couples and families that want to have a good sleep before exploring the beautiful Savannah. Definitely My kind of places.
Location was perfect! Within east walk to historic district, river walk, grocery store, and restaurants. Apt was clean, but not overly comfortable. While we appreciate historic homes, the presence of feeling paint throughout was disconcerting. We have stayed in historic homes previously, so we were familiar with the old tub and shower arrangement. However, the tub was extremely narrow- we had to stand sideways under the shower, and we are small persons! As noted on the listing, the stairs up to the apt are steep and narrow.
The accomodations were clean, comfortable and convenient. Only 2 blocks from Forsythe Park and walking distance to just about anything else one could want.

A great place. Safe, old, pretty, comfortable. Would do again.
If you like walking around historic cities looking at beautiful old homes and then popping into a pub for a refreshment, then this one is for you. Great central location to the main park in the city and an easy stroll to the river and all the fun it has to offer.
We loved the old architecture and furnishing of this place. It was perfect for our needs. Thank you for such a cool opportunity!

The property was stunning! We absolutely loved our stay in this charming vintage home. It’s just a 25-minute walk to River Street, where you can enjoy scenic views of the river and explore the shops. One thing to note is that the house is up a steep set of stairs, that you will need to carry your luggage up.
This is a lovely apartment that sits only a block and a half away from Forsyth Park. It's comfortable, convenient, and safe. Moreover, it has a unmistakable charm that lends itself well to the Savannah experience. We highly recommend this spot and would most certainly stay there again!
Beautiful home, friendly people. Just need one more ac unit in bedroom. Summer humidity here in the south will kill you. This is my only recommendation.
Clean and exactly as described. There's a Kroger less than a block away which was awesome. Beautiful old mansion and our guest room was perfect. 100 percent would stay here again. Thank you 😁
Property just as described. It is steps to Yerba Mate for breakfast, teas,sandwiches, fresh breads. Also steps to grocery and short walk to restaurants. Bed perfect, slept great and apartment has what you need.
Very nice room with nice kitchen. The only thing we didnt like was the tub/shower. Little water pressure. Since the shower curtain totally encloses the tub,the curtain wants to cli ng to your body on both sides. Might be claustrophobic for some people.
We loved this stay because of its architectural significance. This was William Gibbons Preston’s first house in Savannah that he designed and it has great authentic details. So many original details, including several flights of narrow stairs, historic bathroom with orginal (or close to it) fixtures. Kitchen is modern if you need it. The bedroom is palatial and comfortable with its antiques. This was a great location for us close to the park and the historic district.Great restaurants within walking distance.
Perfect location to be close to everything. Close to the beautiful Forsyth park and went to the Green Market on Saturday there. All the attractions are a short walk away from this amazing mansion. There’s also a bakery very close you have to try if you stay here. There’s also a bar/restaurant in a mansion at the other end of the street I would recommend. The owners are very nice..
As other reviews have mentioned, this is not your typical modern lodging. But it was one of the highlights of our trip to historic Savannah. We toured another historic house and felt it was on caliber with the onewre staying in!
If you're a history buff and interested in a historical experience, this is the place to stay. It's a genuine throwback to the 1800's with a few modern conveniences. Got a chance to see a stiz, predecessor to a bidet. Host was super nice and accommodating..

Thank you so much for this. It is really important for future guests to consider this is booking a full experience not just a typical lodging option.
Great place to stay if you’re looking for something different, which we were! What you see and read is exactly what you get. Was pleasantly surprised to see there was a tower floor fan in the room! Easy directions to get in the house and room.

About the host
Hosted by Anderson VIP Concierge LLC
I am a local resident and lucky to handle reservations at some of the coolest properties in Downtown Savannah. Please read the entire description on this one! I know the price is very exciting but this antique setting is "not for everyone" and this is a non refundable booking.
Why they chose this property
Please do not book this unit if you are traveling with someone who expects a typical hotel environment.
What makes this property unique
This is a budget priced rental in the most prime area of downtown. This is more of an "experience" rental and is not typical like a hotel. There is a window AC unit Not central air conditioning. The window unit does cool well. There is a space heater for winter (no central heat). This has basics but is definitely more like staying in an antique setting without modern finishes.
