Great historic location. Condo was perfect for us to enjoy Savannah, it is such a fun city and so welcoming.
The pool was a plus after a long day of site seeing.
Home was nice and it’s in a great location for walking and seeing the area. It’s also a close driving distance to other great attractions! Although we did not use the pool, it’s very nice and well maintained… great space for just relaxing!
This house was perfect for our quick trip to Savannah! David was great and check in was easy! The house was beautiful and perfect for our family of 4! We would definitely rent with David again!
We stayed here for our girls trip to Savannah and it was perfect. Plenty of space for all four of us, nice large kitchen, and we loved having the pool out back. In my opinion it is the perfect distance from downtown, close enough to walk but far enough away that you don't have to deal with the traffic or difficulty finding parking. Having the Kroger right next door was also super convenient. Definitely would stay here again.
Our stay was very enjoyable. The home was nice, the location convenient to all tourist attractions and a Kroger store, The outside lounge area and pool added a bonus to a long day of walking. David was quick to respond to any concerns we had. I would recommend this condo to anyone visiting the city of Savannah.
We absolutely loved our rental! Everything was clean, labeled and tastefully decorated. Soft beds and comfy furniture. The location was perfect for historic Savannah sightseeing and close to all sorts of restaurants and shops. When we visit Savannah next time, we will stay here again. Thanks!
Very good location, near Forsyth Park, walking distance or near the free shuttle bus. The pool was awsome!
No warm water in the shower (or it took long time to get it. Over all we were very satisfied.
Quaint property with historic charm. Close to parks and a short Uber ride to the historic riverfront area with restaurants, shops, and bars. Had all the necessities for a weekend with friends. Didn’t have the chance to use the shared pool area, as the weather was cool. Would recommend.
Savannah is a great city! It is a very old city so the buildings are all very old as well. This was a very well kept old home turned into a few condos. It had everything we needed and was cozy for our girls get away. We did not go out walking in the neighborhood at night as suggested by several Uber drivers due to the neighborhood but during the day we felt very safe walking.
This quaint older condo built in a historic 1800s home was beautifully decorated and included everything we needed for a girls trip. David the propery owner responded quickly when there was any issue and fixed it promptly. We loved the place so much we stayed in 2 of our nights for game nights and dinner at home. We wished it wasnt so cold and we could of used the nice pool/patio area out back. We plan on bringing the guys next time we book at the Ampersand Inn!
House was easy to find. Street side parking was good as long as you got home early. Alley parking was good also. Kids loved the pool and didn’t mind that it was cold lol. Everything was great. Only negative was there were no washcloths but we made due using the hand towels so no biggie. We went for St Patrick’s Day so it was within walking distance to the parade. Host were available to communicate with and provide information.
Couples get away for a long weekend is what brought us to David’s place! We enjoyed the location, Kroger (with Starbucks) and Dollar Tree within block and 1/2. Nice location away from the hustle and bustle of Savannah but very convenient at the same time. House is a perfectly cute. We cooked breakfast every morning in the well equipped kitchen. The only full bath is off back bedroom but nice bathroom. Half bath is in the from entryway. Pool is the cutest off the back porch! Thank you David for the wonderful housing!
The condo was very close to Forsyth Park. It was very nice with a pool. My parents said the bed in the
Master bed room was uncomfortable but other than that it was very nice. My bed was very comfortable. It’s a perfect place for younger people but it had some steps in the house that were hard for my parents to get around. I do not recommend for older people but for a younger group or young family it’s perfect. I felt safe and I loved the back porch and swimming pool.
My wife and I visited Savannah with our 8 month old daughter and this was a perfect spot for us. Having the pool was a great additional treat along with close location to Forsyth Park for walks. The pack n play was also great to have. We would book this property again!

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Too cold to swim. Strong musty smell. I think a dehumidifier would be good. The mattress in the small room sank in the middle and felt like I was sleeping on a slant. The property was clean but the cleaning charge was excessive.
Pictures were completely accurate! Great communication with owner and no issues. Would definitely stay there again!

Perfect location for seeing Savannah sites!
Beautiful and comfortable bedrooms and well stocked kitchen made for a great stay in Savannah. The Kroger just down the street and a short walk to Forsyth Park made for the perfect location.
Great communication, walking distance from pretty much everything. We had a great time. When we come back to Savannah, we will be staying here again.
