Unique property and check-in, but actually very comfortable with surprising amenities (Breville coffee maker, ironing board for wrinkle freaks like me, hair dryer, full array of soap, shampoo, lotion and conditioner etc.). Many historic buildings were within walking distance, as well as restaurants and a park across the street. I would definitely recommend downloading the Park Savannah App so you can pay from your room. The 'Meter Maids' are very prompt and efficient!

403 Was “A-Ok” with Us!

We really liked room 403 at The Present. First room we have had where the shower is in the bedroom. Plenty of space, though I kinda missed having a closet. The WiFi struggles so the tv was on frozen channel search most of the time. Super clean and very comfortable. The staff was accommodating on every request we had.

Nice Budget Boutique Property

So we ran into a few hiccups when booking online. Hotels.com has a button to pay at the property; however, The Present has a pay-first, stay-later policy. This led to several questionable emails to the folks at The Present. So that had me change my reservation and rebook altogether—not an ideal situation since I didn't get to book the original room I wanted. The last few problems were that we had to lug our luggage down to a storage room and wait until cleaners could have our other room ready for the second night of our stay. Now, I will say The Present did try to accommodate my room request a few days after I rebooked; however, I just didn't want to deal with their site again and chance more email exchanges. The first night, our room was just okay. The TV did not work at all; this was room 403. And we heard a strange grinding noise above us all night long. The second night, our room (401) was spectacular! No noise; the only bad part was, once again, our TV was on the fritz. Nothing like not being able to watch the Super Bowl. Geez! Overall, this is a very nice property, and I would stay here over a chain any day of the week! However, now it would have to be only in room 401.

It’s a nice spot!

The room and place itself were very quaint and cute. But, it smells a bit musty, needs better ventilation maybe? Tons of stairs to the top floor so pack light! Great exposed brick and art. Nothing much around to eat or stores to walk to but nice location. Thanks Present!

An ok place to stay for a night but it would be uncomfortable for any time longer. It had no closet to hang clothing, nor did it have a chest or dresser to store folded clothing. The shower was the nicest part of the room as it was large and had good water pressure although was actually part of the bedroom area which was unusual. It was located for easy walking to shopping, dining, and Entertaiment. Parking was a bit difficult as much like the rest of Savannah street parking can be hard to find.

Ran out of toilet paper. Single pane windows were dripping with condensation entire time. Found a dead roach on the floor. Toilet lid creaked like it was haunted. Metallic furniture rusting. Shower fixture broken (cosmetic). Basically no attention to detail anywhere in this property.

The entryway key pad is very noisy and also the stairs between rooms. Hard to stay a sleep with people coming and going at night. Otherwise nicely accommodated rooms.
