I had a great stay this past weekend at the Sonesta in Savannah, Georgia, which is located just off the I-95. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. The staff was welcoming and professional, and the rooms were quiet and relaxing. A special thank you to the manager, Abhi Menon, who went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for a comfortable stay.
