The Nest was perfect for what we were looking for. We came to Gainesville for our granddaughter’s graduation from UF. We wanted something clean, quiet, private, and convenient to UF & nearby restaurants & grocery stores. The Nest provided all of these features. And the price was very affordable. Parking was located right next to the Nest, making loading & unloading our car easy. Mini splits in the bedroom & kitchen worked well. The Nest has essentially 2 buildings, right across from each other - one which includes the bedroom, closets and bathroom and the other that includes a cute little kitchen and dining area. There is an access code to the bedroom & a key for the kitchen. We liked having the 2 buildings as one of us could go to the kitchen if the other was sleeping in.I considered giving The Nest a lower rating because of a few things that can be improved. But since our basic needs were met and the price was right, I decided to give it 5 stars.A few suggestions for Luis:Provide a lamp next to one of the beds, soap for the shower, a hairdryer, and a table next to bathroom sink to put clothes on while using the shower. Other possible improvements: Fill in ruts in dirt driveway, especially in the divot by the street, where there’s a rough transition from the concrete to the dirt driveway. Repair the non-working outlet next to the bathroom sink.Once again, we were very satisfied & plan to return to the Nest when granddaughter #2 graduates from UF.
