Interesting place. The room is decorated in a lovely fashion but it is literally the SMALLEST room I have stayed in. I have traveled extensively in Europe where rooms are very small but this is behind those. Also, there is no comfortable place to sit and relax. When you are in the room, your only options are to lay on the bed or sit in an antique hard chair. Finally, it would be great if you let people know that the majority of the rooms are up a windy, steep staircase.

Great location

I enjoyed the self-check in aspect. It was very easy. The room itself was very cute and clean. Only disappoints were that there wasn’t a thermostat in the room (we got a bit cold but couldn’t change that), and the wifi was too weak to reach our room (we connected in the hallway but lost it when we went into our room). But the price was right for its proximity to Saratoga Springs!

No staff. Small room. Noisy restaurants across the hall. No shows on the TV. No breakfast available. Not worth the cost. Way overpriced for what we got.

Overall All was great! Some little details could be improved: Coffee brewer didn’t work properly. Extra water to brew coffee was not available ☹️. FYI The TV did not connect to server and help phone support did not pick up. It took some troubleshooting to discover that the on/off button is located on the panel mounted to the wall . Bathroom Mirror is mounted at belly height. ??

A comfortable bed and climate control. Room smartly renovated and stylish. Our stay was a quick overnight after an event in Saratoga, so did not have opportunity to fully explore. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Nest especially the location. Beautiful views on the shores of Saratoga Lake and loved the South Western decor of the room. Our room was right across the hallway from the restaurant where we had dinner both nights. Everything that we came there to do was just a few miles away, so the location was great too.

A nice place for people who like live music

This was a nice place in a nice location with quirky parking. The price was right. But anyone staying here needs to know it is attached to a restaurant with live or recorded music until 9pm. If you’re out and about until that time, it’s worth it for the cost and convenience. But if you want to bed down before 9, bring your ear plugs.
A diner at the restaurant gave us a tour of his antique car.
