Pretty and convenient but needs a little help.

I’m not sure if it was a housekeeping issue or if amenities have changed, but there were no wash clothes, dish towels, pot holders or facial tissues. One hand towel, one floor mat but we did get 4 towels for the two of us. The toilet was running and water was flowing out. Once we realized that the last person who flushed before we got there forgot to reset the handle, we cleaned up the water and didn’t call because there wasn’t a leak. The mechanism sticks when you flush and must be reset after every flush. Our last morning here the shower curtain crashed down and couldn’t be rehung. We did call about that before we left to make sure it was noted.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Awesome location! We could walk to so many places. Such a cool apartment too. Instantly felt at home. Does it feel like something built so long ago? Yes but it's cool. Would definitely stay here again. Only drawback....There is NOT a parking spot associated with this place, so put your car in a garage and walk everywhere. If you leave it out, you will be moving it all over the place, every two hours.

Exceeded Expectations

The property is in excellent location, adjacent to Forsyth Park, and in easy walking distance to everything. I loved that the property had a separate dining room/sitting area and full kitchen. I felt more like an apartment or small cottage. I loved it and I would rent it again and/or recommend to all.

Nice historical place, conveniently located

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This basement accomodation was conveniently located near the town squares of Savannah. We enjoyed our stay in Savannah and liked the proximity of this place to the park and the river shopping and restaurants. The house was built in the 1800's and staying in the place was like going back in time. It was well kept.

Coordinate with others in building regarding washing machine usage

I travel for a living and have high tolerances for things being nonstandard; therefore I rarely write negative reviews. This is not a negative review but I need to bring it to your attention. On 2 of the 3 nights of my stay someone else in the house used the washer and dryer between 10pm and midnight. a loud buzzer went off no less than 5 times at 3 to 5 minute intervals each night. the machines are against the bathroom and bedroom walls and it sounds as if it is in the apartment. I did reach out to the management company the first night and they responded promptly, but the same scenario played out the next night. I stay in enough VRBO properties to know that if others experience what I did, you will have a problem with this property if you don't reach out to the other occupants of this building to rectify the situation.

We loved Savannah!

Location location location! This place is ideally situated to see a lot of Savannah. Such a walkable city and we had a great time. Lucky Savannah was responsive to everything. We discovered a broken window in the bedroom that someone had not reported and they came right over to do a temporary repair.

Lovely apartment

The location was wonderful, the apartment was perfect for our needs and such a cute space. Super clean, had everything you needed. You could walk or Lyft everywhere you needed to go. It was so neat to stay in older house with an older feel but modern touches. We loved our first trip to Savannah and would stay in this apartment again!

The apartment was well appointed and seemed to be pretty well taken care of. A few things to note is: the sofa is in need of replacing or at least new seat cushions; the dishwasher had a towel stuffed under it so it apparently does not work properly. Enjoyed the ambiance the place gave and it made it very enjoyable to just relax.
