Excellent stay at the Nest. Very comfortable bed with 2 good pilllows, great shower and big towels, little fridge in the room with hangers and full length mirror. The staff downstairs were helpful and check in was quick. Decent kitchen downstairs where you can help yourself to water, tea and coffee. Two bus stops nearby outside where busses to town are regular and takes around 10 minutes to Eyre Square. The only minor thing was there is no hairdryer but I didn't expect there to be. I would definitely recommend here.

Amazing little spot with perfect sized rooms. We were two couples travelling together and the rooms suited our needs perfectly. The staff was very accommodating and check in/out was a breeze. Cannot recommend this property enough. My only regret is we didn’t stay longer!

We weren't sure at first about staying here because it was a hostel but I'll say it was probably nicer than a lot of hotels we stayed at and one of the nice additional benefits was being able to use the kitchen. This place was very clean very centrally located and it was quiet
