"Hotel Review"

The Holiday Inn Express in Historic district of Savannah is great place to stay. It is in downtown district and we could walk everywhere. Beds were comfortable, room was clean, hotel staff very friendly. The breakfast was very good each morning. Our room was facing onto very busy street so it was very noisy in the late evening and early morning other than that great place to stay.

Had to cancel a reservation at another location and make this a last chance to get another reservation. I'm glad we did and that's because it's a great place to stay in Savannah. Exceptionally clean room, great location and staff was great. Will be back!
