My husband & I stayed here for our 3 year wedding anniversary trip. Check in was very easy, and staff was very nice & welcoming. We got up to our room and it was HUGE. Very spacious, even had a couch and coffe table. The A.C. was ice cold, and they had black our curtains. We stayed on the 3rd floor. It was really quiet the whole time we were there. Breakfast was free and provided downstairs. It was alao quite nice. Could use a few very small upgrades or touch ups but we defintely don't have any complaints. The hotel was very clean, the room was also very clean and nice. 10/10 highly recommend. We were very impressed. We will defintely be back. :)

The Hotel was very nice our room was very big, huge shower on the second floor but there’s an elevator for easy access. Breakfast was free and very good. The beds are comfortable and so are the pillows. It’s also not far from Savannah so there are a lot of things to do and a lot of close food options.
