The downstairs apartment is a separate unit with its own guests. You may hear guests coming and going and some city noise. Please keep noise down and observe quiet hours from 8 PM to 8 AM. Parties and events are not allowed without coordinating with us first. Exterior security cameras cover the front door and the backyard.



The Neighborhood:

Forsyth Park is three blocks away: turn right at the sidewalk, walk three blocks and you reach the fountain. The apartment sits in the middle of downtown Savannah, so cafes, bars, restaurants and groceries are a short walk.



Walk north along Whitaker Street through the squares to find local shops, coffee and quick bites. For a Southern meal, Mrs. Wilkes Boarding Room is close, and 700 Drayton and Crystal Beer Parlor are a short walk. River Street and City Market are about a 20 minute walk.



Getting Around:

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



Parking: one car fits in the assigned space behind the building, and there are several free street spots in front. Check the posted street sweeping signs and move your car on sweeping days to avoid a ticket.



Other Things to Note:

Stairs: 20 steps lead up to the apartment, after three short steps to the porch.



Insects: we spray quarterly, but you may see palmetto bugs, wasps and other insects. Keep windows and doors shut, keep food in the dining area and keep trash in the trash can.
