This place was the perfect location to walk anywhere in Savannah. It is a unique place and the gated courtyard was such a great bonus. Would stay here agin.
We stayed for a weekend with our fur babies. The place was perfect for our trip and just as described. We loved the off street parking and the gated in courtyard. Would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable and unique accommodations. The private courtyard was a perfect place for my pup to romp around in. Excellent location, and parking a big plus. Would definitely stay here again.
Savannah Sojourn is a fantastic place to stay in Savannah! The property was fantastic: Clean, modern, yet elegant and the old south! the property lies a short walk from all you will want to see in Savannah.
We will definitely be back! This is a gem in downtown Savannah and walking distance to whatever you need. I could spend all day out in the private yard alone. Thank you for the hospitality— highly recommend!
This was our second time staying here. It’s the perfect location within walking distance to most activities. Love that we can bring our little poodle with us and the gated courtyard that allows him to get out and run safely. We will definitely plan to be back!

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Dec, 2023
Sally booked the space to celebrate her husband's birthday. In advance of the holiday season we decorated the space in a festive fashion. As with all guests I make myself available via text or call 24 hours a day. I provided helpful hints prior to check in and the guest asked for dining recommendations which I provided. All responses to the guest were done in a timely manner. At the end of their stay they sent me a message as follows: "We enjoyed our stay the apartment is very comfortable and well located. Sorry we did not get to meet you". The very friendly pleasant and accommodating messages from myself to the guest as well as their responses back do not match what was written in the review. Thankfully, I have never gotten a review like this before as the happiness and comfort of our guests is of utmost importance to me.
This property was perfect for our long weekend stay. Property is exactly as it looks in pictures but what that does not tell you is how centrally located this is, how convenient it is to have a parking space, the outdoor courtyard was perfect for our dog to run around even in bad weather. We really loved Savannah as well. Will come back and book this place again!
This property was amazing, it really gives you that historic feel. The location is incredible, we did not need to drive anywhere (the reserved parking was a life saver), plenty to do to keep yourself occupied. The private garden was incredible and perfect for dogs! We have stayed in Savannah before and I don’t think we will ever choose to stay at any other property other than this one the next time we go. Highly recommend!
My husband and I wanted a location to enjoy the heart of Savannah and the Sojourn did not disappoint! Communication with Windham was simple and prompt. Thank you so much for sharing a part of your home with us. The location enabled us walk ability to the historic district and was clean along with an amazing, quaint courtyard.
This is our third time at Savannah Sojourn. Wyndham is always a delight to deal with and there is so much to say about this little jewel in the heart of the historic district. Most everything is within walking distance, and with your own personal parking, you don’t have to worry about where you will leave your car. Everything is clean and so many little personal details. Being pet friendly is an additional perk and the large courtyard is perfect for your furry friend. I only took off one star because we had to go buy some washcloths as there were none and we had some issues with the lock on the front door. I mentioned the lock to Wyndham so I’m sure it has been resolved. We look forward to returning to our little hideaway in Savannah.
This was an absolutely perfect location and one of most well put together and comfortable residences we have ever stayed in. Beautifully decorated and including every possible visitor need in the bathroom, bedroom and kitchen, this street level apartment was unique, but so comfortable. Our Aussie loved the large brick walled back yard! So did we! We grilled at “home” on two nights even though all the magic of historic Savannah, including restaurants, parks, and marquee architecture was easily within walking distance. We had perfect weather and one of our best vacations ever! We’ll be back and Savannah Sojourn will be our first choice for lodging.
I can’t say enough good things about this lovely place. It is located in the perfect spot and with its own private parking, we were able to leave our car most of the time and walk. There are several restaurants within walking distance as well as many of the sights you will want to see like the cathedral, Forsyth park, several town squares, the Sorrell-Weed house- the list could go on and on! Windham was delightful to deal with, she made several restaurant suggestions and had so many small details in the apartment to make it feel like home. We came in to waters in the fridge, dog bowls for food and water, shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided as well as all the paper products. The apartment was clean and cozy and the bed was comfortable. The private courtyard was perfect for relaxing and letting our little poodle run around safely. We will definitely look forward to staying here again!
