This our second time to stay at the Iris Garden Inn in Garden City/Savannah. Our daughter is a student at SCAD and in the past we always stayed at short term rentals in the north historic district. Last year we traveled with our dog to pick up our daughter for summer break and stayed at the Iris Garden Inn because they allow pets. We were pleasantly surprised at the newness and cleanliness of the inn and our room as well as the friendly and very helpful staff. Plus it had a large parking lot and grassy areas for walking our dog. This year no dog but booked again because we liked the convenience. It is close to the historic district (5 to 10 minute drive) and you don’t have the headache of hunting 15 minutes for an overnight pay to park space.

Walls were REALLY thin. I could hear complete conversations with the people next door when they were talking at normal volumes. Toilet was kinda broken. Stayed here previously, but the experience was not as good this time.

Unfortunately, this placed smelled like Marijuana as soon as we arrived. 1st room was not clean. Feces on the toilet. Front desk switched rooms. 2nd room was a bigger disaster. Broken shower and drain issue. Bathroom fan hanging from ceiling. Room was musty, bed linen dirty and hair present. Dont waste your time or money. Better off to sleep in your car.

Came into the lobby, desk attendant did not acknowledge us verbally or even with a smile. Check in and learned that our room had a broken window shade, refrigerator broken, air vent in bath broken. Had to go downstairs because no one answered front desk phone. Desk attendant was rude to other people checking in. I was offered a new room; however no “sorry for the inconvenience” was given. Once I changed rooms and I came back downstairs to put away the roll cart, there was no follow through to make sure I was happy with the new room. New room had working items but the bath tub was just dirty and you could tell the room had not been used in awhile with all the dust on the lamps. New room had no phone, broken clock and the charging plugs in the head lamps also didn’t work. The hallways smelled musty and you can tell cheap products were used to make it look like it’s a higher end/modern look. Haven’t tried the shower to see if there is hot water, we shall see.

Not a great hotel.

Front desk person when checking in was not nice. The room was dirty. And the hotel just smelled bad. Supposed to be no smoking but all you smelled was someone smoking weed. Towels were horrible. They very thin and smelled bad. Beds were not comfortable. Bed sheets felt dirty. It wasn’t a great hotel. Alot of shady people just hanging out in the parking lots too.

A note to fellow travelers that the hotel does not store luggage and there is no storage at Savannah Amtrak so if storage is needed consider another hotel. Some items broken in the room. Shower was great, bed comfy.

I give 3 star for service due to the front office staff who was there at the time of my check-in. She didn’t great me as she was upset or frustrated on incoming call. I was just standing there quite waiting her to finish what she was doing. She said something rude when the phone ring and she saw me standing there she didn’t care. The rest of front desk staffs were very nice, great everyone when you walk in or out.
