Property is in a great location, however, it was definitely misrepresented on the vrbo website. There is apparently some work to be finished. There was paint drippings all on the rug, bed pillows and items on the floor. There is painters tape still on the ceiling beams. Still many areas reflecting the old paint. The best thing about this rental is the beautiful wood floors and upgraded counter tops. Also the internet info provided in the check in info was incorrect.

Can't beat the location. Unit was clean and comfortable, very nice kitchen. Bathroom is a bit small, and getting the luggage up the stairs was tough - but once you are settled, the stairs are not so bad.

Overall we had a great time, was about 10-15 minute walk to the river front. Had no issues finding parking near the rental. Lots of sunlight though in the morning so not much of a sleep in late place. Enjoyed our visit and stay!

This was a perfect little spot for our short stay in Savannah! The accommodations were clean and comfortable and the location is surrounded by tons of shops and restaurants in walking distance.

My husband and I rented Sparrow's Nest while in Savannah. The property was close to various sight seeing adventures. The property was clean and we received good customer service. The problem was we are both advanced in age (69, 73) and doing four flights of stairs to leave the rental and another four flights upon returning nearly did us in. Nowhere were we advised of so many stairs without an elevater available.

overall this is a really great property! truly I think it would be difficult to beat the location and price, and is a perfect amount of space for 2 people! some other highlights include:
-in unit laundry (went home with almost all clean clothes!)
-full size kitchen (we didn't really use the kitchen but it had everything you would need)
-ceiling fan and good AC
-fairly quiet (you can hear the next unit when they are outside the door but this was never an issue)
-tv with streaming services available
-provided random toiletries such as laundry detergent, dish soap, body lotion, etc.
-dresser and closet space to unpack if desired (also iron and ironing board)
-keyless entry to all doors
-very clean and organized
some things that were not dealbreakers but were slightly disappointing:
-the shower!!!! as someone who enjoys a relaxing shower, the showering experience here was very unenjoyable. the shower head cannot be tilted down so your back is touching the wall at all times you are under the water. it feels very claustrophobic and both my partner and I are relatively small people (under 6ft and 170lbs) so this may be even worse for you if you don't also fall under those ranges
-the bathroom also has a standalone sink with no counter so you cant really put anything there, but there are shelves for storage
-there are a lot of stairs as this unit is on the 4th floor. this is definitely the most inconvenient when you are first bringing all your luggage up, but it's really not that bad
-there is only 1 light switch for the bathroom which turns on both the light and fan which seems silly, but if you want to have a conversation with the person outside of the bathroom 10 feet away, you cannot do so without yelling
-the bed is not the most comfortable but also could definitely be a lot worse
-no view from the window! not a big deal but if this is something you like you won't get it here

Business trip/ personal stay . Room was nice and clean. Issues with TV! No cable just. Roku that would turn on and off at a pace of 5 minutes however from desk says they will correct that. Everything was great and only negative is it is four flights up however you know that going in and it’s not a negative on the place. I would rent it again and again! Front office is really nice and easy to talk to

Good rental. Love the location and room was very clean. The bathroom shower is really small. It would be hard for a large person to access. The is on the 3rd floor, so be prepared to take 3 long flights of stairs.

This was a great place to stay for our Savannah trip. Walkable distance to most things and just enough space for me, my husband and our dogs. Just up the street from several restaurants. We are at Hitch and J. Christopher’s which were both really good. It was on the 4th floor, do not ideal for someone who has trouble climbing stairs but there were units on the lower floors. The check-in and check-out policy was very easy. It was also very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved the location, but we had absolutely NO internet. I called and it was supposedly fixed (someone was supposed to call to verify), but it NEVER worked. This was extremely frustrating considering I needed internet because I have work and I am a doctoral student. I had to use my hotspot on my phone the whole time.
Would I rent again based on location? YES. Would I rent again knowing how terrible my internet connection was? NO.

Couldn't be better location! Very clean, comfy bed, smallest shower able to install but there is 7' headroom in it. Main complaint internet spotty sometimes not. No streaming. 55 steps keeps you in shape as Im over 70. Not a problem for me maybe some. Found parking on the weekend next to it for free.
Submitted on Oct 2, 2019
The location is great. There are lots of steps to climb, so be aware of that. Wasn't an issue for us though. Parking was pretty good - you can park on the street after 5 and on weekends and pay to park nearby.
The room was very clean. However, the sheets and towels were not. And there were no pillowcases. Wasn't the end of the world, just kinda odd.

We really enjoyed this apartment.
It was spotless, and very bright with a lot of natural light.
The location was perfect with so many good restaurants within easy walking distance.
The previoius guest had evidently cracked the coffee carafe and the manager responded immediately with an entire new coffee pot.

The space is nice and accomadating and convienently located to every where we wanted to go. The restuarant downstairs was really good. My only compliant is that the final flight of stairs to get the apartment are steep. We visited Savannah for a wedding and there were a lot of outfit changes that needed to happen for various events. We came to dread the stairs. Overall, the place was clean and the bed was comfy.

This airy studio was just as described, with sparse but nice furnishings, comfy bed, and a modern kitchen. The location is ideal; walkable to various historic houses and squares, the river, SCAD, etc.; no car was necessary to get around town from here. The check-in process was very easy with the app and the rep I spoke to on the phone to arrange early check-in was courteous and helpful. My one quibble is the shower is on the small side and does not appear to have been updated with the rest of the appliances (though it was perfectly clean); also, the hairdryer was broken. Great for a weekend getaway or a longer stay with the functional kitchen with dishwasher, full-size fridge.

I had a conference at the Hilton down the street and this was the perfect location. It was right in the heart of the historic district and very close to many great shops and restaurants. It was also a fairly easy walk up to the river and City Market. The room was super cute and comfortable, and the price was great. The only thing I would caution is be prepared for the walk up 3 flights! Would definitely recommend.
Submitted on Oct 24, 2018
Over all the place was great, very clean and comfortable! Only issue was the stairs, my fault, I didn't realized I booked the fourth floor, lots of extra exercise. Perfect location, could walk anywhere in a short amount of time.
My suggestions would be to invest in some better pillows, bed was comfy, pillows not so much. The shower was small, don't recommend larger people rent this room. I'm 5'4" and had barely enough room. Just a suggestion, nothing wrong with it, it was just small. Otherwise we had a great time, didn't want to leave.

I really enjoyed the coziness of this place. It was me, my husband and our little dog. The size is perfect. All the amenities function perfectly with the exception of the internet. If you need to work on your laptop, which we both do, you cannot stay here. If you do not need internet access, it's perfect for the price.

Our rental, The Sparrows Nest, was in the perfect location for us. Located right in the middle of the historic district, it’s a quick walk to the eateries or shops. We were on the fourth floor, so we didn’t hear any noise from traffic or pedestrians, which was great! Lucky Savannah does a great job with the decor and cleanliness of their rentals. We only had one drawback: the shower. It’s a bit on the small side, which caused a problem for my 6’2” husband.

We so enjoyed our stay at the Sparrow's Nest. It had everything we needed, and it was so easy to get around Savannah from here. It was clean and well-kept with a touch of Savannah charm. Make sure you're fine with climbing stairs and small showers before booking (fine with us, but I can see it being a challenge for others). Also, wonderful communication by owners before and throughout visit. No questions went unanswered. Thank you for making our stay in Savannah so convenient and cozy.

First, let me say that this apt is in the ideal locale. As a New Yorker I need to be able to walk to everything and from this location I definitely could. All the best restaurants, bars, the river; everywhere I wanted to see and be was within a 15 min walk. In that same vein, though, it is a 4 floor walk up. As a NY'er I am used to it, but it may be a lot for others. Lucky Savannah couldn't have been nicer to work with, but to be honest this apt needs some major TLC. For a short term stay, like a long weekend, I would call it a pretty good find. However, I have been in it for 4 months, and ended up putting a fair amount of my own money into adding things to make it more amenable to a long term stay; Some as simple as a cover for the trash can so my apt didn't smell like garbage, but others as major as two mattress pads because the mattress was so hard. This review was hard to write because as I said, Lucky Savannah and their staff have been lovely, but for what this apt costs per night it truly needs some improvements.

Sparrow’s nest is a spotless, professionally decorated, cozy space ten/15 minutes from restaurants and attractions in Savannah’s historic district. The apartment was super clean with all the necessary amenities.
The Lucky Savannah staff provided excellent recommendations and tips to make our stay enjoyable and stress free. The only concern was the mysterious discovery when we returned from a four- hour outing only to find the apartment door cracked opened. Although nothing appears to have been out of place or missing from the apartment, the experience was indeed unsettling.

Our stay in Sparrow's Nest was great! It is in a great location, central to everything we wanted to do. Everything was accurately portrayed in the listing, everything was very clean and well maintained. The check in process with the app is super easy and convenient, no having to go to an office to get keys, etc. The only complaints I would have: 1) the mattress is extremely firm and not very comfortable. 2) There are no parking spots included with the property, so you need to find street parking or a parking garage. Not a huge deal since we mostly walked everywhere, but on the 1 or 2 occasions we took the car to drive somewhere it was a little bit of a pain. All in all a great experience, would definitely recommend!

This unit was perfect for our last minute weekend getaway! It is clean, cozy, and convenient and quiet. We arrived on a Friday, parked our car, and did not get back in the car until Sunday. It is conveniently located within walking distance to all the sights in Savannah. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was very nice. The only thing that would have made our stay better would have been a couple more towels and washcloths. However, we made our reservation late in the afternoon, a few hours before arrival. I'm sure it would have been different if we had given more notice or called and requested more. We were thankful that you were able to accommodate us on such short notice. The staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you for helping us have a memorable getaway! We appreciate it!

** PLEASE READ FULL REVIEW **
The only 2 setbacks were the parking ( you can get a parking pass to not have to feed the meter and it is very reasonably priced ) and that it was on the fourth floor. Those were the little things I did not plan for. The property and room were absolutely perfect, It matched the photos exactly. It was about a five minute walk to "down town" and they have a Breakfast restaurant right next door. What I thought stood out the most was the management staff. They always answered my calls and were able to assist with all my questions. I will stay here again next time I am in Savannah and would recommend this to my friends and family.
Thank you for making my stay so enjoyable!

My Sis and I stayed at the Lucky Savannah Dec2-5. It was very clean, a pleasant first impression. The location is perfect. I didn't have to drive till departure day. I agree with others about the small shower, but we found humor in it, it did it's job. Also, the owner/manager was outstanding during our stay, especially when I realized I had us checking out a day early. Thank you Brooke.

My sister and I came into Savannah for a long weekend. The location of the Sparrow's Nest was absolutely perfect—central to all the gorgeous sights Savannah has to offer. The apartment was set up beautifully and had plenty of space for the 2 of us to be comfortable. The bathroom was small (downside for 2 girls needing the mirror), but otherwise an absolutely perfect stay. Lucky Savannah made it so easy to check in and out and do everything throughout our stay! We've already recommended this to lots of family and friends! Can't wait to come back!

This is the cutest little studio apartment! Granted, I was only in the room to shower and sleep, but it met all my needs. The décor has a calm, country chic vibe to it, which made it much more inviting than a plain ol' hotel room. I really did not have any issues beyond check-in. I found the code to enter the building, but could not find the code to enter my apartment. I called Lucky Savannah and a customer service representative handled the issue. The whole phone call took less than 2 minutes. The location is ideal (to me) in that you're in downtown Savannah, in walking distance to river street, but far enough from the hustle and bustle to have some peace at night. During my extended weekend in Savannah, I toured the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, the Mercer-Williams House, toured Bonaventure Cemetery, visited numerous coffee shops, and enjoyed restaurants like The Olde Pink House. I would highly recommend this apartment due to its location, in addition to the fact that I prefer a more authentic experience rather than staying at a chain hotel!

Sparrow's nest was a lovely place to land for my three-night stay in Savannah. Nice, clean, comfortable apartment with everything I needed. The only maintenance/repair issue was a broken marble threshold at the bathroom door. All the pieces were there, but if I stepped on it, they pieces would all fall of place.
The Lucky Savannah app and portal worked well, but I never got the entry code for my apartment door. I happened to bump into someone on-site who knew the code, but if I hadn't, I would have been out of luck, so to speak. When I called the LS number, I got voicemail, and no one called back.

My wife and I rented this efficiency apartment located on Liberty Street in Savannah. It is on the third floor. Absolutely clean upon our arrival for a five day stay. Bed comfortable with nice linens. HDTV that worked great. Kitchen with all that you will need. The photos online were not misleading in any way. The bathroom is small. Walk in shower. A nice feature was the closet area. You can see the doorway leading to it between the bed and kitchen area. This allowed us to hang our clothes. This is an iron. Washer/dryer combo. We used only the dryer to have our towels nice and warm. We used the heat function for the apartment. No need for air as Savannah is a little colder this time of year. The location for this VRBO in Savannah cannot get any better. You are two blocks from Bull Street. This will lead you north to the City Market/Riverfront and south to Forsyth Park. Next door on Liberty is J Christopher's which has one of the best breakfasts in town. You are one block from the beautiful Cathedral. Just one block north is Parker's Market. A gas station/convenience store/gift store is a super stop. They have breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, salads and deli bar. There is beer and wine. A definite stop for a good inexpensive meal on the run. The entry to the apartment house is a key pad. A different combination key pad is outside the apartment. Both worked well the entire trip. If location and convenience is what you are after, this is a perfect apartment. Live like a local. Parking is always an issue in Savannah. 8-5 you need to feed the meters. At night it is free but watch the no parking certain nights for street sweeping. You can get a window pass that allows you to park at any meter for any length of time. Go to parking services and get a $14 dollar two day pass if you have a car. It's worth it. Weekends are free at meters. Enjoy your stay in this apartment.
