Guest Access:

Guests have the apartment, the private kitchen balcony, the shared wraparound porch, the shared courtyard, the shared laundry room, and metered street parking across from the building. The check-in guide in the Guest App has the details.



The apartment is in a building that houses other guests, much like an inn. Please treat the shared spaces with care and keep noise down between 8 PM and 8 AM. Events must be cleared and coordinated with us in advance.



Exterior security cameras watch the front entrance, the courtyard and the hallway that leads to the courtyard. Please do not block them.



The Neighborhood:

The apartment is in the heart of downtown Savannah's Historic District. River Street is about a 10 minute walk, and City Market is a short walk too. Forsyth Park is about a 15 minute walk or a short drive.



Convenience and grocery stores are a few minutes on foot, along with cafes, bars and restaurants. 700 Drayton and Crystal Beer Parlor are a short walk or Uber ride away. Walk through the squares to browse local shops, grab a coffee or sit on a bench.



You do not need a car here. Once you book, we send recommendations on what to do, see, eat and drink in Savannah.



Getting Around:

Walking is the best way to see downtown. Uber and taxis are quick and inexpensive to all of the downtown attractions. The free DOT trolley stops a couple of blocks away and runs about every fifteen minutes to the Historic District.



If you drive, park in one of the metered street spaces and walk from there. Please read the posted meter signs for hours. You can also buy a city parking pass at the visitor center.



Street sweeping signs are posted along the road with the sweeping times. Move your car to a street that is not being swept that day to avoid a ticket.



Other Things to Note:

Stairs: one flight of stairs to the apartment. The building entrance, courtyard, wraparound porch and laundry room are shared with other guests.



Noise: You may hear city sounds such as light traffic, emergency vehicles, trash collection and street sweeping, and other guests coming and going in the building.
