Stay was nice. The only issue I have is the amount of dogs I encountered during our stay, was overwhelming.

Dog friendly!
I was not expecting a $150.00 pet fee. We were there8 hpursat night. They put us in a room right outside the elevator, which isn't a good location for someone with a dog. He was on alert most of the night.

Very nice hotel but
It was a very nice clean hotel. But the only problem we encountered was that they charged $45 a day for parking, even if you are staying there. I did not notice that when I booked through Hotels.com We could have stayed at another hotel that had a higher star rating, with free parking for the extra $45 a day. I thought I had put in the filter that I wanted a hotel with free parking.

Great hotel
Great location and great architecture. This hotel has character and has a spacious lobby area. Bed was comfortable and bathroom modern. Valet service was excellent and staff friendly. Text for your vehicle and ready in 5 minutes. Would stay here again.

Savannah stay
Hotel clean and charming. Was in an adjoining room and could hear everything through the door. Also the water didn’t work in the shower. It was fixed the same night but very inconvenient.
