Hotel was fun and funky - BUT the Sunset room was immediately under the Bar/restaurant. Incredibly loud footsteps, and chairs scratching across the floor all day and particularly the evening until 11pm.

Staff and hotel were great. Would stay again

Perfect location for everywhere we wanted to go and room was decorated lovely. The canteen upstairs is very convenient and fun! Had a great time and would definitely look again!

OK – I don’t usually review. And I have never to date published a “negative” review. But after the stay at Nomads in San Clemente I must comment. I stayed in the “sunset room”. Hilariously named because the room is located on the east side of the building and basically underground … no sunset here other than the orange walls and maybe light dimmers. So, if you like basements and a single small street level window that faces east, this is your place. But that was not the real issue. The room is located directly under the Nomads Bar/Restaurant. Yes, right under, with no sound isolation whatsoever. Which resulted in the room not being inhabitable from about 3pm (yeah basically check-in) to about midnight after the cleaning crew in the Bar/Restaurant was done making their very loud racket. So … think about tables, chairs, shoes and boots on hardwood floors and you are right under it. Mind numbing noise … nonstop until closing and cleaning complete. And then around 3am the people in the room next store started making noise through what seemed to be paper thin walls. This Sunset room specifically is to be avoided for sure unless you want to know what I think a prison might sound like after lights out. I guess the tip off should have been the jar of earplugs on the nightstand …. Really! The rest of the Nomad experience …. It is right in the middle of town and convenient … but if the main criteria are just a quiet comfortable room to wind down

This was very convenient location, able to walk to restaurants, shops and pier. Parking was a bit of a challenge, and the room was under the restaurant so a bit noisy at night. Would stay here again for sure!

Pros- great location. Cons- below the bar so loud late and loud early. Our room was ridiculously tinny with shower , toilet, and sink all in one little cove. Dangerous stairs 3 steps from side of bed

Everything was amazing room was nice Love the area

The room was not what we expected

This room was cute. Fit my family of 6 pretty well. The biggest issue is that there is a bar upstairs and it is very loud in the room until the bar closes. Music, talking, chairs moving around.

Easy check in/ check out. Excellent area to restaurants and shops. Very clean! Restaurant is above so might get some noise but we didn’t care about that. Ear plugs and sound machine provided. Love it here

Our particular room was a little noisy at night (ac unit) but everything was excellent.

Room was very so small and bathroom was even more small where the sink was tiny by the corner and shower was is the same area with the toilet hence always wet when taking a shower. The worst part was the restaurant tight on top of us so all the loud noises from the talking and laughing, the constant feet movements and chairs dragging were nonstop until like midnight yet started again around 8AM hence the anticipated quiet restful vacation away from the hectic daily life turned into a living hell. Never go back to this place ever again!
