A bit far from city center but if you want a calm place to rest it will be good option.

Quiet hostel with great stuff and kitchen facilities.

Room was small. Door on the bathroom didn't lock properly. Some repairs are needed.

Lovely helpful staff. Pleasant accommodation.

Kitchen broken has to use outside burners not good. Fix your stove inside geeeez. Getting in out gate was annoying they have to push a button vs getting your own code. And during winter stop opening and leaving the doors wide open, the staff shows up bundled up opens doors props then open in the mornings why would you do that we guests don’t want a cold place to wake up and move around! Think beyond yourself

Staff very helpful and nice. Open grounds gated plenty of space.

The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom included both a bathtub and a shower. I stayed in Swakopmund and really enjoyed the space. For the cold winter nights, I would suggest providing hot water bottles, they’re more eco-friendly and would help reduce energy consumption, especially since the air-conditioner’s heating function wasn’t very effective and blew cold air during the night. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind.

The kitchen is big enough, but there's a somewhat limited amount of utensils available. Do expect some car noise on a Saturday night in certain rooms, if you have the window open, but the wind may drown it out. A car is handy, if you want to go to the city center.

Friendly and welcoming staff, the place is very clean, spacious grounds, not too busy, when I was there. A good place to relax before and after your flight.

It was a very nice place

Would be far without a car. Room was next to the road but wasn't really an issue.

If you don't have a car (I did) this place can be a bit more difficult, but they are very good at communicating to setup transport for you and have a free shuttle to town every day. This place truly is more of a guesthouse rather than a hotel, ample parking, big yard with barbecue and a pool and a bar with a nice kitchen and living room. Dorm beds were solid and would not wobble, each with tons of outlets and a small light with curtain. Good storage with a lockable bin beneath the bed as well. Pretty solid room by dorm standards.

There was 1 key to be shared by roommates, which can cause inconvenience.

Liked everything. Stuff was very polite and professional , affordable, and in the right location.

There was a certain smell in the last room we slept at.

Everything that it was good

Kate's Nest House is a cozy place, with friendly, flexible people working in it. The rooms are nice, and the shared facilities are as you'd expect.

The dorms had no air-conditioning or fans. It was too hot to be inside during the day.

The guesthouse was well-maintained and clean. The staff were friendly and polite. I like their dedication to make my stay as comfortable as possible. The place is very much safe as well. It is a cozy little place to stay in budget!

There's room for improvement in terms of staff introducing new visitors in the sharing rooms. Instead of just invading the space without courtesy to those who already are in the room. Greet people and inform them that you are bringing some company in the room.

The environment was beautiful and peaceful. I enjoyed it

I know we paid for a budget room and it was in summer, but it was incredibly hot in the night.

Clean rooms, friendly staff, lovely pool. Great value and good place to stay for a few nights stopover in Windhoek.

They dont really have anyone to help during nighttime. Unfortunately another guests were drunk and making lots of noise at night, when i spoke to them, one of them got very rude and intimidating. With no staff onsite felt very unsafe. Had to call the number of the hotel, thankfully i had a local sim card or else i wouldnt have been able to connect with anyone at the reception.

Good place, friendly staff, good facilities s and room. Good location as you can take a quick txi ride to city centre
