We arrived very late after our flight so this was perfect for a quick stay to rest before driving to the other side of the island. We enjoyed the art and appearance of the hotel. Quick tip when you arrive park on the street then go inside and check in, the parking for the hotel is behind the building behind a secure gate.

There is a lot more id like to write but im only allowed 1500 characters but my full review will be on google. I cannot recommend Hotel Nest to anyone. The combination of uncomfortable conditions, and no drinking water as well as the eerie paranormal experience made our stay unbearable. We left the hotel feeling frustrated, unsettled, and disappointed, and we’re still trying to resolve the refund issue with Expedia. I hope my review helps others avoid the same disappointing experience.

Just a place to sleep

Absolutely no warm water at any tine of day or nignt. Ice cold. The staff was very nice. The hotel is okay for short stay or not spending time in the room. No elevator, or ice, or vending machines. With no hot water, I wonder how they sanize the bedding and towels....
