Charming property with amazing location

It was a charming garden apartment just steps away from all the beauty Savannah has to offer. We loved being able to be so close to the restaurants, shopping districts and the historical squares. The apartment had all the amenities so it was great not worrying about little things to bring with us. We would absolutely stay here again!

Scores high on all aspects

Superb location. Very clean and spacious. Easy access. Management were so good to allow us amend our travel dates. We were there with two teenagers who loved the place. Helping to find the turn into the parking alley might be improved on property map, its just past parking garage entrance. Drive around the block if you miss it. (the alley is one-way system). Then the parking is super and reserved for your unit .

Great Location in Historic Downtown

As anticipated, this was a great location with included parking within walking distance of River Street and the parks and squares downtown. The parking and entrance was a little tricky to find at first, and the VRBO app wasn’t offering any help, but once the check-in email finally came in, there was enough information to get us there after a few laps around the one way streets. It was surprisingly quiet for being on a busy street and having a bar next door. The (most likely illegally) parked vehicles in the alley made getting into the parking a pain at times, and deliveries to the restaurant and bar had the parking blocked in the mornings for brief periods. As far as the lodging, the only valid complaint or concern would be the shower being very hot. There didn’t seem to be much cold water mixing with the hot so there was pretty much hot or hotter. May not be hot enough to cause significant injuries to most, but it was also difficult to enjoy a cool shower after a hot day on the go. The listing said there is coin op laundry available, but there is no laundry equipment or services available to guests so pack accordingly. All in all, the value for the location and amenities for a larger family was worth it. I will definitely stay again for my next visit as we were very pleased with 901.

Perfect location for girls getaway

Myself and 4 friends stayed two nights. Check in was easy as the access code was automatically emailed to us. The location was perfect for walking around the city with tons of great restaurants close by. The rooms were comfortable and the property very clean. There was care shown to the details such as the quality of the toilet paper and towels. It was nice to have coffee and tea available. My only complaint was there was no phone number to reach out to the host directly on vrbo and I was only able to reach a property manager through an 800 number. It would have been nice if the host reached out to make sure we settled in nicely.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Manager

Host profile image
My wife and I first came to Savannah in 2005. We sold a small rental home we owned in Peachtree City, GA and decided to re-invest in a rental home along the eastern coast. The search was on and it started in Savannah and we worked our way up past Charleston. At the end of the search we came to the realization that we love the look the feel and the general laid back vibe of Savannah.

In general I would say that our top ten reasons of why we love Savannah are below:

10) The low country waterways and the smell of the marsh
9) The proximity to the ocean and all the tributaries
8) Fishing and time on the water
7) The Downtown and all the parks
6) The history of Savannah
5) The hauntings and the stories/myths that lie behind the fables
4) Traveler drinks – Solo cups and alcoholic beverages can be taken for a stroll anywhere in the downtown vicinity
3) SCAD – the fact that the whole downtown also is vibrant with students
2) The Pubs and Bars
1) The many fabulous restaurants

We hope you enjoy your stay in Savannah as much as we enjoy everything that it has to offer.
