The female receptionist was very helpful and courteous, but other than that not a lot to impress in my stay. The room was OK, but in need of some serious TLC (coffee machine and light above the bed not working, no plug in bathroom sink, toilet seat loose, whole apartment needed painting). The furnishings in the bedroom were passable. Very limited breakfast choice. I reported the main faults to a man on reception, who said that they would be passed to the maintenance team, but nothing was rectified in my 3 night stay. Not impressed.

When we checked in they gave us a handicapped room despite us not reserving a handicap room. We asked to have a regular room and the black female receptionist said that because we booked through Expedia that Expedia gave us a handicap room. Next, our towels were very dirty with black stains on them. The breakfast was horrible and tasted as if they we from the previous morning and just reheated for the next day. The walls a very thin and you can hear people beside you in other rooms. Someone had a dog four rooms down and you could hear the dog barking. You could also hear the person above you talking. The bathroom door would not close so that you can lock it. Someone else’s belongings were in the drawers from the previous stay. Overall, the location is not in the safest place and appears to be in a deserted area in the projects. I would not recommend this property until they are at least able to clean the towels, clean the rooms, serve fresher food to serve for breakfast, and at least fix the bathroom doors.

Positive experience overall! Check-in was quick and easy. We did encounterd an issue with the room's fridge not working. The staff deserves praise here – upon informing them, they promptly arranged for a replacement fridge with no fuss. Their responsiveness and focus on fixing the problem significantly enhanced our stay and left a very good impression.

The property was quiet during my 4 night stay. Staff was friendly and always greeted me when I came back to the hotel. The property is near a grocery store which was convenient. Unfortunately, my fridge was broken and moldy (would not get cold). So I was limited on purchase options. Also, I noticed that the elevator permit was expired by more than 1 year and it made a weird sound every time I stepped in. The property did have a breakfast option (hot meals on weekend) but the juices weren’t kept in a temp safe container. This resulted in the OJ expiring and fermenting. I stuck to making waffles each day since I knew they would be cooked correctly. The only other complaint was that the Wi-Fi was spotty at times.

Don’t usually comment on my stays, but this hotel is a solid stay for the price. Staff is friendly, yes the property isn’t luxurious or very new, but it’s comfortable and functional. No red flags in terms of hygiene during my stay, and it’s extremely convenient to drive into Savannah proper. Great bang for your buck, with easily accessible essentials within walking distance. Solid 4/5

Property doesn’t look like the pictures on Expedia. The complimentary body wash in the shower wasn’t filled up/completely empty, the floor of the shower wasn’t cleaned, pillow cases on one side of our king bed where very damp/wet… someone who works for the hotel knocked on our door at 11:30pm at night and asked us when we were checking out the next day… very inappropriate especially when they know when people have to check out by. Very very unpleased and IS NOT worth $160 per night.

Bed was clean and comfortable but the pillow were terribly lumpy. The rest of the room we had to sanitize what we could and tried not to touch anything else. If we hadn’t had a midnight arrival we would not have stayed at this property. Those who have rated it as exceptional have very poor standards. Stains on the carpets, walls, and furnishings. Dust on the doors and walls. The hotel lobby and breakfast area are beautifully redone but completely misrepresent the condition of the rooms which is really most important for a clean, healthy, relaxing, and comfortable stay. The breakfast area is the only space in the hotel that smells musty due to moisture control issues apparent by the extreme condensation on the windows. Breakfast is a risk at best. Juice looks like it’s been there too long and is possibly fermenting at this point. They also offer cereal with no milk, muffins, a waffle maker with no batter, and a carafe of coffee that really looks like it needs a good exterior cleaning. Spend $30 more and stay elsewhere.

I stayed at Iris Garden Inn from June 12–14 and was very disappointed. The lobby had a strong, unpleasant odor upon arrival. The front desk staff was unprofessional and untrained, and my reservation had been incorrectly checked in under someone else. It took multiple calls to a manager just to resolve the issue. The hotel felt unsafe, with people loitering in cars in the parking lot. Only one service elevator was working, and its inspection was expired (last checked in 2024). My room had a musty smell, was hot upon entry, and I found a dead roach behind the TV. It felt like the room hadn’t been inspected or used in a while. None of the ice machines worked on the 2nd or 3rd floors, and the vending area on the 1st floor was out of order too. I was beyond frustrated by that point. Staff were rarely visible, and checking out was difficult due to a language barrier. The photos online were misleading. I understand budget hotels come with limitations, but cleanliness, safety, and basic service should still be expected. I was relieved to only be staying two nights.

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.
