Element Savannah Midtown

Came for a weekend getaway. First was greeted by Brandon who seemed to be bothered by doing his job. The room was clean but did have a few issues. The shower has no shelving to put your shower toiletries. Our bathroom only had a quarter roll of toilet paper. The door was very squeaky and no fan to vent the bathroom. There is no room safe and the smoke detector has a bright blinking light. The gym is nice with a variety of equipment. Not a fan of the hot breakfast items. The potatoes were bland and the pancakes were not tasty. Think they should consider doing a buffet style with more options. Wont be returning.

I stayed for two nights in February. When I booked the property, I didn’t realize it was a new property. I was happy to stay in this new property for a much better price than hotels closer to historic downtown.Overall, I had a good stay, but there were a couple of things that could be rectified. My room was spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable and I truly hated to leave it each morning. I didn’t have any problem with noise from other rooms or outside. There was no safe in the room, even though it looked like there were wires for where the safe should be. I inquired at the front desk and was told none of the rooms have safes. I assume maybe they are on back order and didn’t arrive before opening. The other problem was the shower. It is very narrow and there are no shelves to put your shampoo, razor, etc. Also the drain plate in the shower was not screwed in, so this seems like it might be a hazard. I had a chance to use the fitness room. It still smelled brand new. There was a good variety of equipment. I stopped by for breakfast and enjoyed the selection. Cereal, fruit, bagels, egg bites. I was a little confused at first about where to find plates, but I figured it out (underneath). I really like the chobani yogurt stand. I didn’t get a chance to try the made to order breakfast so I am not sure what was being offered. Overall, it was a pleasant stay. I would recommend and would stay there again if I am in town and don’t mind the distance. FYI I was going to the convention center each morning. It was about 20-25 minutes.

This is a brand new hotel. It literally opened a few hours before we arrived. Everything was new and clean. Rooms were very nice with refrigerator, sink, mini kitchenette. Staff is friendly and accommodating and free breakfast was very good with freshly made hot items. Hotel is very close to many restaurants and stores, some within a short walk. Value for the price was excellent and I would highly recommend this hotel if you are in the area.
