“The Thunderbird Inn embraces its retro aesthetic, setting it apart from Savannah's more traditional offerings. Close to the historic district, it provides a practical base for exploring the city, and the pet-friendly focus broadens its appeal. I think the quirky charm, from the RC Cola to the free bikes, makes it a memorable choice.”
