Marriott Savannah Riverfront
The room was very clean and comfortable. Hotel extremely nice. But $25 for a glass of wine and $17 for a glass of milk and a bagel is a little much. Loved the location though.

Easy check-in with personable front desk employee. Older hotel that has had some updates. Nice variety of items at breakfast buffet. Not sure what to say about TV but it was an experience like never before. LOL
