"The breakfast buffet was the usual inedible processed stuff with some scrambled eggs and sausage in chafing dishes, but I can't fault them too much for that because that's the usual fare."

“For a stay in Savannah's Historic District that balances cost and convenience, this hotel is worth considering, especially given its rooftop pool and proximity to sights. I found the staff generally helpful, with many guests specifically calling out those working in the breakfast area. While some reported issues like slow draining tubs and standard breakfast fare, the location and price make it a reasonable choice if you're focused on exploring the city.”

Valet parking was super convenient. Or, I could park next door in the public garage, saving money. Both great options!
