It will not be quiet while the upstairs cantina is open, if that is a concern, but that is the trade to be in the walking zone of the restaurants and shops. But we love the location, felt safe and cared for, and simply turned up the wave sounds and slept fine. Will be back!

Perfect for party surfers

I stayed one night in the Boat room. It’s tiny…the toilet is on the shower, no joke. I appreciated the comfortable bed and the small fridge and microwave. However, if you expect to sleep early, this is not your place. The bar/restaurant is directly above this room and you can hear everything; footsteps, music, etc. Fortunately, it stopped at 10pm, but it was annoying to say the least. The parking situation is tough as well. I am glad I paid less than $100 for the night, otherwise it would not have been worth it.

I was in town for a youth sporting tournament so I just wanted a clean place to sleep; I didn't care about any frills. Nomads did the trick. It was extremely clean, conveniently located. Since it's self check-in and there is no front desk or staff, it reminded me of an AirBnB experience. I wish there was easier parking, but overall I'd stay here again.

contactless check in, interesting themed rooms, canteen on top of the hotel... I've never stayed at a hotel like this. It reminded me of a hostel. It is in an excellent location right in the middle of town. The place is spotless! You could smell the soap as soon as you walked in the front door. We got two free drink coupons for the bar upstairs, which was nice :) We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend it!

So cool. We checked in. All rooms are unique. Our friend's room was really cool. But, our room was perfect for the two of us. Big comfy bed. Nice balcony with 2 chairs and a table. walk in shower. Roomy bathroom. hang up closet. easy access, safe, secure. We even had a surfboard rack in the room.

"Clash!....screeeeeeeeeech... thump, thump, thump, CLANG! Clack-clack-clack....BOOM!!!!" This is what it sounds like when you stay in the Boat Room located just under the restaurant, but my husband and I loved it. They have ear plugs and the sounds of thunder and rain freely available to mask the hub-bub. We were cracking up. The room was small and it reminded me of accommodation I've had in Copenhagen and Paris (minimalistic to save space): very small, with a bed and a bathroom that doubles as the shower. The room was clean and the decor was cool. I've stayed at Nomad before in one of the bigger, front rooms. That room was quieter and more spacious. If you're uptight, entitled, or like to complain, I wouldn't stay in the Boat Room. But, it works if you're not precious. It's nice to be able to stay in a room in San Clemente without breaking the bank. The surrounding area is amazing and glorious. The food at the restaurant at the hotel is A-Maz-Ing!!! They gave us a free drink each, which was really cool. Plus, I apparently get a hat for leaving this review. Time will tell. Thanks, Nomad staff! We had a great time.

Unfortunately this was one of the most miserable check-ins of my life back in July when I stayed at this beautiful hotel. I use a flip phone, with no internet, and nothing on the website said that would be a problem.. So early the day of my arrival, like say 3am before I left home,, I checked my emails to see if my hotel needed anything from me like to call again to confirm; all good. I got there around 3pm and I guess management eventually got to see a stressful security video of me looking like an idiot, banging on their locked front door and eventually breaking into tears, crying and yelling through the door for help, over the course of 30 minutes. I was calling the office number from the website over and over, 30 times, and left 10 voicemails. I asked the bar around the back how to check-in or reach staff, they were kind but ultimately gave me the same phone#. I had to drive to a Starbucks and use their wi-fi with my laptop to try to email the hotel, and I found it... 1:55pm they had sent an email explaining the contactless check-in and codes. Nothing on expedia or their website said you had to check your email within a couple of hours of check-in to be able to get in at all, and there would be 0 staff to call if you couldn't. I don't want to trash them too hard.. it was reasonably priced for SC and beautiful and colorful and convenient. Oh, I did find someone's old leftovers in the freezer, but I would still stay again now that i know the secret to getting in :(
