Great spot to spend a few nights!

My husband and I drove up from San Antonio to attend a wedding shower and this place was great! Had a little trouble with the code to get in and even though it was midnight, I got a fast response from the property manager to troubleshoot. Water temp in the shower was a pain as it vacillated between hot and cold for the duration of the shower but otherwise no problems. Would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

Dust storm

Property is very nice. Easy to get to. Quiet neighborhood, however during the night while asleep my wife and I were awakened by the bushes rubbing against the screen of the window above the head of our bed. If someone could just trim the hedges about a foot below the window,this would help them from scraping the window during the next wind storm.might get some sleep then.

Cozy stay at "The Nook"

My husband and I found "The Nook" to be a great little cottage to stay at for the evening while we were in Abilene. It was clean, had a comfy bed, great wifi connection, yummy coffee, adorably decorated, and the host was extremely courteous and a prompt communicator. Can't say enough good things about this cozy little cottage!

Such a lovely place to stay!

I was traveling by myself this trip so I was looking for somewhere that was as easy as a hotel but quieter. The Nook was perfect! There are two parking spots which made it very convenient. The space is really cozy and has everything I needed! The neighborhood is very quiet and black out curtains and super comfy bed made for a great night’s sleep! In fact, so nice that I overslept the first night!! The communication was perfect, all of my questions were answered in a very timely manner. I highly recommend this spot!!

Exactly what I needed!

I came to Abilene for a funeral and needed a place to stay overnight. The Nook was ideal. It was very neat, clean and welcoming, especially the sign outside and excellent parking area. I've never been to that area of Abilene so I was reassured once I found it. The cookie treat left for me was extra special.

Perfect for a Quick Trip

This is a lovely place, perfect for a quick trip. It's decorated nicely, and the bed is comfortable. Please note there are some night noises, like a train, a dog barking - things like that. (I noticed them, but my daughter didn't.) The communication with the host was excellent.
