MARIANNAItalyStupendo
Stupenda struttura a due passi dal mare, ho adorato l'atmosfera
La scala per il letto di sopra è un po' scomoda e le tendine si staccano facilmente. Non ci sono appendi abiti in camera. Gli armadietti sono piccolini
RossIEStaff so friendly, free coffee n tea, comfiest bed ive slept in, great showers, great coffee
It was all great!
KarinIEStaff was very welcoming and helpful with any questions. Rooms, bathroom and kitchen all very clean. As a parkrunner I wanted a later check out time, so i could take a shower after, and for a very reasonable price this…

The bunk bed had no side to keep things from falling off
LorenaItalyLo consiglierei sicuramente
camera confortevole, letto comodissimo, prese elettriche super comode, pulizia impeccabile, camera molto curata, pratica e silenziosa. Molto accogliente anche la parte in comune, la terrazza e la cucina.
Mi è piaciuto…
María EstelaSpainSobrevalorado
La ubicación es buena, muy cerca de la playa, en Salthill aunque un poco alejado del centro. El personal encantador. Muy limpio.
La habitación familiar que consta de dos habitaciones más un baño, realmente es muy justa…

Questions about The Nest Boutique Hostel
What time is check-in and check-out at The Nest Boutique Hostel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Nest Boutique Hostel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at The Nest Boutique Hostel?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does The Nest Boutique Hostel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Nest Boutique Hostel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book The Nest Boutique Hostel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
