Marriott Riverfront - Savannah, GA
Gracious staff from housekeeping to front desk. The view from our riverfront balcony was awesome, seeing 7 - 8 story ships pass within a few yards was fun. Breakfast at the hotel restaurant, RiverEdge was great, with omlettes cooked to order in front of you, as well as Belgian waffles. The room was comfy, with a bit of elbow room at the two-part desk, a nice touch for those of us with laptops. Convenient to riverwalk, but the water taxi does NOT go to the Marriott dock any longer.

LaQuinta Inn - Pigeon Forge, TN
Amid the many rundown motels in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area is a rare jewel–clean, well managed, recently built, and just off the noisy main highway. Although not easy to find (enter via the Long John Silver parking lot) it was worth the search. The property was close to Dollywood and Bennett’s Barbeque, it’s reasonably priced, especially with the coupon in the lodging booklet available at the Tennessee Welcome Center.
