It is a nice hotel, right next to the Metro Station. It is very easy to get to Old San Juan from it. They were a little too hard on me, charging me an entire night for me to be able to get the room at 7:30 am since it was available anyway. That made me leave after the first night cuz I couldn't believe they would not understand my bad situation with my several canceled flights.

The hotel had no hot water in the shower so that made my experience not good. The hotel does not have an elevator so I definitely don’t recommend if you have large heavy luggage.

Hotel Nest is super cute w/ spacious, clean rooms, and extra friendly staff. I enjoyed morning coffee in common balcony areas. BUT…the location is strange; not much to do (restaurants, shopping, bars), lots of vacant buildings, and not as lively as I’m used too in PR. Even still we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel!

Disliked: Amenities
Room had no window and smelled too strongly of bleach. We were given two waters but then told we couldn’t have anymore late at night….we were told to go to a bar to buy water; a hotel should provide water even if they want to charge. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was dismal Very expensive for what you get

The room was clean and the staff was nice. The issue was having a door with glass. The light on the 2nd floor shined right through the door. It was bright in the room all night. I have never experienced that in a hotel before.
