The Nest on Fifth

For the money, it is a decent stay. In the heart of the gas lamp district which is nice if you are looking to bar hop. The entrance is kinda hidden, you have to park up the street at a parking garage. it is $15 a day. Our room was clean. We had the studio on the 3rd floor. be prepared, It is loud! there is a club right next door so there is music going late. bring ear plugs if you have trouble sleeping in that environment. I have a noise machine so I had no problem. Complaints, elevator is obnoxiously loud. the entry way floors are dirty. If you are looking to save a couple hundred of dollars on your stay, it is a good option. I would stay again.

Nest on Fifth is a quaint, cute little place in the middle of all the action in the Gaslamp district. We stayed in a room for a couple of nights. Fortunately, the building is within walking distance of a bunch of great bars, a CVS, and restaurants. Our room had a kitchenette, which is great for days when we didn't feel like eating out. Some things we didn't like so much were the loud noises from the surrounding bars and the lack of parking. But we appreciate that ear plugs were supplied. There is a parking structure nearby, but it is not free. We did stay here right before Comicon, so parking was difficult to find. Also, keep in mind that the rooms are like studio apartments. We didn't mind this, but just know that you'd be cooking and sleeping in the same room. Overall, I'd recommend Nest on Fifth if you are fairly young and enjoy the San Diego night life.

I come to SD once a year for work, and this is my go-to place to stay. Completely self-serve, but you can request just about anything you need. Only con is their body wash; I bring my own soap.

We stayed the weekend at this quaint studio apt. It is kind of a cross between a hotel and a hostel. There's a modern, clean private bathroom. Kitchenette with microwave, two stovetop burners, sink, and fridge. Location is spot on! Right in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter. It's right above a Cuban restaurant so we were concerned about possible noise but even though you could hear music in the stairwell and hallway once you're in the room...peace and quiet. Would recommend.

Great option. No frills, but comfortable efficiency apartment style makes a great value. Clean and comfortable. The kitchenette is reasonably stocked. I will use them again.

Great place to stay right in the heart of down town. The place is very clean felt like home. Only down side is that if your not out late the noise is notice able if your trying to get an early night rest.

I loved staying here! If you can't sleep through a little noise though, seek another place to stay. You can definitely hear music from the bars around you when you stay here. Personally, I like a little background noise so I slept really well. The room was comfortable and close to everything! The Cuban restaurant nextdoor is AMAZING and there is a uber pick up point right out front! I would definitely come back :)

Our room was nice and spacious but the AC didn't work at all. But everything was clean and the decor was nice. The location of the hotel itself was very convenient and was within walking distance of many restaurants, bars, and clubs. I would definitely stay here again.
