We absolutely loved our stay at Thunderbird! The staff was kind and friendly, the retro style of the place was creative (and we loved our RC Colas and moonpies) and very reasonably priced to be so close to downtown and being pet friendly! Our dogs LOVED the thunderbird dog biscuits!

Loved the retro feel of place. Location very good for seeing sites of Savannah. Paid the additional $20. for parking on facilities. Don't recall that being mentioned in description of place. Some morning noise from traffic but to be expected due to location.

This property is grimy. But staff are nice and helpful. I feel like this whole place needs a lemony power wash. Breakfast is sugary treats and coffee and juice. The doughnuts were delish.

Wonderful people, rooms were clean and excellent bed, however, noise carried quickly from adjoining rooms and parking lot. Fun offerings for free "breakfast". We walked everywhere we wanted to visit, never moved our cars after check in. Internet was spotty. 9.2 rating overall.

Had a great time at this Hotel. The retro style and the way everyone went out of there way to make sure our stay was spectacular was amazing. The only drawback I had was the closeness to Oglethorpe. It is a busy highway and was very noisy until about 10 pm with traffic. (My wife and I go to bed early). Don’t let this deter you from an amazing experience. They are walking distance to the historic area of Savanah as well as the Cementary, the Cathedral, the Floral Gardens and many assorted museums. My wife and I enjoy the museum of The Georgia Railway. We also enjoyed a paddle boat on the river, several dining choices all without driving the car. It’s an A1 experience that I would recommend to all.
