Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was quaint, unique, and centrally located. It was near most major attractions in San Juan and the staff was super helpful. My only complaint, minor one, was that the room was super hot when we checked in and took till almost 10 pm to cool down. It would have been better if the AC had been turned on an hour prior to checking in to make the room more enjoyable earlier.

The staff were helpful and the place was clean. Free parking space and restaurant as well as train station just walking distance from the hotel. Love their continental breakfast. Room was clean, AC works and they seem to have a backup generator in case of power outage which are frequent in PR. My wife and I loved it. We would definitely stain at Nest again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was cute and clean. The private parking was extremely convenient. The only thing I did not like was the key. The key gave us access to the room but did not give access to the building. We had to ring the bell and wait to be buzzed in every time we came in and out. That was pretty awkward at night, I kept feeling like I was preparing myself for the walk of shame. Lol other than that all was good. I stayed 3 nights in total. Cool.

Staff were very helpful. I wasn’t too happy about not having an elevator, but the gentleman @ the desk helped us with our luggage. I will be using this hotel again if and when I return to Puerto Rico. Also I was very pleased that the subway was right next door and this hotel is very close to the airport Luis Muñoz Marin. Thank you again ☺️

This hotel is clean and had guest parking. It was suitable if you just need a place to sleep before a flight. Be aware that they enforce highly specific rules, such as dress codes, a ban on visitors, and no alcohol. While the room itself was cute and clean, the policies felt heavy-handed for paying guests on vacation. It worked for our quick transit, but don't think we would book again.

Our stay at Hotel Nest was great. The staff was nice and one guy even took our bags upstairs, no elevators at the hotel. The room was nice and cozy. The area wasn’t the best but once you walk around you seen the nice art work it made up for the area. Will recommend

​I recently stayed at Hotel Nest and had a mixed experience. ​On the positive side, the hotel itself is a great spot if you are looking for cleanliness and comfort. Both the hotel and my room were well-maintained, tidy, and very comfortable throughout my stay. The breakfast provided was very basic, but it was a sufficient way to start the day. ​However, I feel it is important to note that the surrounding street and area felt quite sketchy. There were a large number of homeless persons and street dwellers in the immediate vicinity, and they were frequently very loud throughout the night, which made it difficult to get a restful sleep at times. ​If you are a light sleeper or are uncomfortable in busy, unpredictable urban areas, you may want to take this into account before booking. If you stick to the hotel property, it is a clean and welcoming environment, but the area right outside the doors was not ideal.
