Moldy peeling paint. Throughout the property. This is in the room.
April Marie T.

Nice place & location. BEST BEDDING. Softest most comfortable blankets & sheets. Neat....Pretty decor. Great service staff. Secure & safe. Jordan and Chuck were awesome. Was surprised with Cold waffles & eggs breakfast. Moldy, paint peeling ceiling. Broken dusty blinds. Dirty bathroom... moldy...ceiling...filthy access panel. We will not be back.

Not as pictured on their website. It was very disappointing.

Pros: -Upon arrival we were helped with our bags to the third floor since there is no elevator. -The location was in the center of downtown Savannah. -They had complimentary coffee or juice along with cookies and a yogurt in the mornings. We didn't care for it, but it was appreciated. Cons: -The pictures and videos on their website have to be from over a decade ago as none of the fireplaces in each of the rooms are functioning and furnishings are very dirty and falling apart. -Everything about the room at check in and throughout our stay was incredibly dirty. I was embarrassed to have taken my husband here. They not once cleaned our room and at check in no one mentioned if we needed housekeeping to ask them. That's tacky to have guests asking for them to do their jobs. Yet they left an envelope in the room for the guests to leave a tip to housekeeping. -The balcony railing was so dangerously low and very slanted the chair hardly fits out there and felt very unsafe. -Furniture was all visibly dirty it gave dirty motel vibes. -Linens and bath towels were in bad shape or not adequately clean. -The stairs to the third floor were all different heights making it difficult even for healthy people. The banister at the bottom of the side house felt like it was going to be ripped off if you put any weight on it. -The central air located in the room seemed useless. The balcony doors let too much cold air into the room at night and in the daytime the room was too hot when it was hot outside. -Upon checking in and throughout our stay the floors were all so disgusting especially the bathroom floors. We found all sorts of body hair all over the bathroom floor. -The walls are so thin I couldn't sleep hearing our neighbors snore loudly and just talk late at night and early in the mornings.

Everything was great! Room was spacious, we had a cute balcony, I loved all the little patio areas in back, the location was convenient, breakfast was tasty, the wine reception was delightful, and the common areas were beautiful. On top of all that, I had a potential ghost experience!

Muffin and fruit to start

My one main gripe is that they don't allow an earlier check in even when you know the place isn't booked! Get some better customer service please. I settled for dropping off my things in a corner and walking around the city. I got a room on the ground floor which I later regretted. It was loud, you can hear the breakfast crowd coming down to eat, people walking around and the staff making noise. If you make a reservation, do not stay on the ground floor! I am also told you should avoid the carriage house in the winter as you have to walk through the cold garden to get to the house meals. We got a room with huge king sized bed and large windows (so glad the blinds block out the light). I like to cuddle so it was wasted space but still beautiful. The room is larger than my master bedroom at home! Very well decorated too. The Fireplace worked, and was very warm. Loved that detail. Breakfast is served 8am-10am. You are sat in tables of 2. It's very private and intimate. I prefer the communal tables where you get to meet other guests but that's just me. Breakfast: We started out with fruit with juice and coffee. The fruit had lots of honeydew (the crappiest of the crap fruits) but the banana muffin was clearly fresh baked and perfect. I got eggs with goat cheese and sausage. My boyfriend got waffles with sausage. It was you basic hotel food. If I rated this place on the food alone, they'd get 2 stars. Sweets and tea offered from 3-6pm. They had biscottis and cookies from a local bakery, That was a nice treat. They offer port on the piano 24/7. Overall everyone is very attentive and friendly. It's in a great part of town. Across the park where Forrest Gump tells his famous line about the box of chocolates on a bench. I will probably try a different place next time just to get a taste of what other B and B's are like but this place was great despite the OK food.

This bed and breakfast -- constructed in 1889 -- offers decent and comfortable-enough amenities, for tourists looking to stay in the heart of Savannah. Things to know: ***** I. LOCATION & PARKING: The Foley House sits across the street from Chippewa Square (on the corner of Bull and Hull Streets and only a few feet away from the famous Forest Gump bench scene). The most attractive aspect of this place is it's proximity to the heart of the city's Downtown" anywhere from a 10-20 minute walk. Regarding parking, those who stay at the Foley House can receive a street parking pass. Plentiful spots exist around Chippewa Square. II. ROOM: Most rooms there differ, and I stayed in two over the course of four nights. One had a modern bathroom; one did not. One had a working fireplace; one did not. Both had sort-of-comfy beds, but I wouldn't rave about about either of them. So yeah, your experience depends on the room. I would suggest asking for a room as farthest away from the main floor as possible. In addition to getting a fantastic calf and thigh workout ascending those stairs (no elevator, BTW), you'll avoid hearing people walk down the stairs during breakfast time. One of the major problems I found in both rooms is that many of the electrical outlets didn't work. It's something Foley House could improve. III. SERVICE: Fantastic, friendly staff. The person we worked with to coordinate our stay over-communicated how to access the building after 10 pm (which is when they don't have anyone staffing the place). IV. FOOD & DRINK: Their complimentary breakfast is off of a small menu. (So it's like a restaurant.) I had a tasty omelet accompanied with pan fried ham and fruit. I had one of their fruit juices, too, and it was unfortunately something similar to something one could have bought at a grocery store. It's too bad because I loved my food. V. PRICES: They vary and depend on the time of year and type of room. I think we paid around $275 per night, which was the most affordable option in the area. VI. OTHER TIDBITS: Supposedly, a ghost named Wally haunts the Foley House. Guests have seen him with his top hat walking around the garden at night. Fortunately, I didn't see the guy. Oh, and it's dog-friendly. VII. OVERALL: Consider the Foley House, for a convenient stay in Savannah. Research other options, though.

I decided to give Foley House 3-Stars because the receptionist was pleasant. Although I did not believe her that she did not know more about the location I was asking her about. Maybe I am wrong but this location is so huge, how can you not know about it. I have been trying to get information on a Senior Apartment there in Savannah with no luck. I had left voice message with the LGBTQ Center with no return call. I found the Foley House and idea I would stay there if I ever get details first about these senior apartments. I called the Foley House to only get the brink wall thrown at me again. This Employee of this Gay B&B if still gay did not know the area after living in Savannah 2-yrs. I found this disappointing and if this is what Southern Hospitality is now days, do I want to move to Savannah. If I ever get my information I won't stay at the Foley House. Makes me also wonder if the Gay Community in Savannah is unfriendly even to gay outsiders.

Come hungry because your stay includes plenty of complimentary food. Tea time from 4-5pm was cute with choice of coffee or tea and several bite size snacks. If you're looking for a non caffeinated option def get the Golden Milk. Plus the evening cookies were a delightful surprise. Of course the star of the show is breakfast from 8-10am. You can order anything off the menu. We split the syrniki (pancakes) and two egg breakfast. Also a side of bacon and fruit. Yum! I had the matcha latte this time and it was great too. Good thing Forsyth Park was close by to walk off the itis before our drive home. Shout out to the staff working on 12/19 - 12/20 for making our short stay wonderful!

Just because it is a historic location does not make it a five star facility. Let me repeat that. The Bellwether House in Savannah, Georgia is not a five star accommodation. Just because it is a historic location does not make it a five star facility. * It lacks the following: * Valet parking * Bell hops * Actual suites: our Garden Suite consisted of one large room with two small, frosted windows, one bathroom and one closet. It reminded me of an isolation cell in my father's jail (he was a guard not an inmate.). There was a non- working fireplace * No dining facilities except for breakfast * No on site or nearby parking * No sizable bar * Worn appearance in places (see photos). * Steep and narrow steps to get to our room * Scarce storage space * Minimal electric outlets * When making the reservation for our 55th wedding anniversary I told them that we would be bringing our 18 and year old Daschund. They said there would be a dog bed and dog bowls. Unfortunately, Otto had three seizures two days prior to our arrival, and we had to have him euthanized. There was neither a dog bed nor dog bowls. * Only one trash basket in the bathroom * No heat when it was in the 30s in the morning, 40s by midday, 50s by sunset * No nearby restaurants in walking distance * No automatic refills of water or San Pellegrino, you have to ask * No soft drinks or alcohol in mini fridge * Weak internet signal Now, on the good side: Room was large Staff was friendly and responsive It was exceptionally cold Savannah is a quaint old southern town We are accustomed to real five star hotels like the Waldorf Astoria or The Kimberley in Manhattan or any of the Ritz Carlton properties in Florida

Only has 2 parking spots that are first come first serve, otherwise if it is a busy booking time you have to pay for street parking just an FYI. Room was adorable and very clean. So nice to have waters left for us and plenty of towels. Bed was extremely comfortable in the Royal Palm Suite. Food was spectacular and a highlight for sure. Not only was the breakfast so nicely made and prepared, but there were contestant drinks, coffee, wine, snacks and desserts 24/7 for the taking. Amazing oatmeal white chocolate chip crasin cookies I died for. One thing is I wished the time for breakfast was longer. It is served 8:30-9:30am. Hoped it would be longer than an hour. I recommend they extend it to 10am or make it a full 2 hours 8-10am. A slight extension I think would give guests more time and it definitely is the highlight of the stay. Will 100% be back next time I am in Savannah! The chef for breakfast was extremely kind and accommodating as well.

The Green Palm Inn is conveniently located in the downtown historical district just walking distance to all the shopping and popular restaurants. Savannah is very beautiful during the Spring and Fall seasons, not to mention this city is very mystical during the Fall. Winters are enchanting around the Christmas season and as you can tell... I love this City! The Green Palm Inn is a charming Oasis in the beautiful City of Savannah that should not be missed.

They are right across the street from Forsyth Park. You'll want to sit on the porch with your coffee, breakfast, wine, book, whatever and people watch any downtime you get. The house and all of the rooms are so beautiful. We stayed in room 6 and loved every bit of it. The AC worked well, the bed was comfortable. It had all of the old charm you'll be looking for with all the modern comforts. Breakfast is served every morning & there is wine hour every evening. Because it was soooo hot when we were there, the wine hour was a good excuse to get back to the inn, shower up and relax a little before dinner every night. Oh, and sweet tea on tap. The staff were all so helpful, friendly and welcoming! Big thank you to Dwayne and Gary. As with most places in this area of Savannah, you can walk nearly anywhere. But, this was a great central location. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
