"The Bull Street corridor: the beating heart of downtown Savannah. All points of interest from Forsyth Park to the riverfront are within a ten-minute walk. Restaurants of all types and price ranges. Bars, banks, trendy shopping. You name it, it's all here except parking; that's a big hassle."

"Super nice and calming. A nice plus is that so many local stores and small businesses are without walking distance. All the parks are well kept and I enjoy walking to the farmer’s market every Saturday."
