I enjoyed my stay at Gateway Inn Savannah. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was kind and attentive and the price was great. I'll certainly return!
Terrible service. Front desk guy was rude wouldn't give me an extra towel. I was in town for work. Needed to shower then and 8 hours later after I worked again. Very disappointing that the employee was so dumb about this. Anyway first and last time trying this place. ...There's a reason they're so cheap.
Needed a place fast, wanted one that was cheap, convenient, and decent. This is honestly better than my expectations. Wooden floors, tile bathroom. The shower not the best but it worked! And the staff! I haven't encountered many of the employees but at the front desk, very very friendly, kind, and funny. Overall it's a great deal. Completely satisfied. Can't complain at all. Definitely will stay here again.
a friend of mine has been staying there by the week until after Christmas when his family can save up the money to move into a place of their own and although I don't live there or stay there they have just renovated the places and they look very nice I've only went inside a couple of months ago, today I was returning As debit card that she forgot in my car whenever I took her grocery shopping at yesterday
The rooms were clean but not well stocked. There was a used bar of soap, no shampoo like the ad said. It was a nice room, quiet, plenty of parking. For the price I would stay there again.
Great place the money. No frills so there are no high expectation. Room is clean and comfortable. They have cable. Across the tree from publix. This is Literally in front of restaurants. So you can just walk out and there is cookout Kristy cream, Domino's you name it.
It was the property not the People. Just outdated rooms.
This is an unassuming place to stay although it's not the nicest the rooms are extremely spacious. Parking was easy there was no deposit and it is directly across from the street about 10 restaurants and stores. Also they let me check in way early and the person at the front showed me the room first. Those are the good things the bad thing was that at night it was like a party in the parking lot and did not stop until about 1 am. The other thing is don't think they ever air the places out. I think if they get night security that would be great
This unfussy budget hotel is 10 miles from Hunter Army Airfield, 14 miles from downtown and 6 miles from the gardens of Wormsloe Historic Site.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Georgia. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
