The Nun in Our Guest Room review: a final wish before her vows

Updated 29 Sep 2026

Quick facts

The setup, in a single sentence

The official synopsis tells the whole story in one sentence. Its heroine has a week to go before she commits her life to God, and there is something she intends to have for herself first. The title adds the rest: she is lodging in a spare room, and the “our” points to a couple as her hosts.

Past that point Candy goes quiet, and it helps to be honest about the blanks. We learn nothing about the hosts, why she is under their roof or which host she has set her sights on. Any drama the series holds is saved for the episodes themselves.

What the idea gets right

The concept has a pair of real strengths. The first is its ticking clock: a seven-day window maps neatly onto five episodes and puts pressure on every step, since there will be no second chance. The second is the collision between a vow of celibacy and the Nympho tag Candy assigns to the series, a forbidden-fruit setup as blunt as any in the catalogue.

The weak spots

A single sentence is thin material, and it cannot tell you whether a story exists beyond the obvious one. The religious framing will alienate some viewers outright, and others may tire of the gimmick quickly. If you want developed characters, a scheme and a twist or two, there is next to nothing here to grab onto.

How hot it runs and what it costs

Explicitness comes in at 3 out of 5 on our scale, our lowest rating so far and tied for the one we hand out most often. With episodes 1 and 2 free of charge, you can judge the premise and the hosts before paying anything. The three locked episodes that follow are 12 tokens apiece, for a total of 36 tokens, which is about $1.44 billed yearly, $3.24 billed quarterly or $5.04 billed monthly. For every price and plan, see our overview of Candy’s costs.

When to watch it, when to skip it

• Watch if a now-or-never, off-limits premise tempts you and you don’t mind doing much of the storytelling yourself.
• Skip if faith-based themes leave you uncomfortable or you need a synopsis with more than a single idea in it.

Other series on similar ground

Several other Nympho and Taboo titles cover this ground with more setup. Courtney’s Secret layers Milf onto both tags and scores 4 out of 5 with us, one step hotter. Oops! I’m Your Secret Roommate has the identical pair of tags plus a campus setting, and Molly’s Manipulations suggests a heroine who comes with more of a plan. All three cost the usual 36 tokens for five episodes.

Where that leaves us

At heart, The Nun in Our Guest Room is one joke: a sharp hook with little else on the page. Its seven-day deadline adds some structure, it costs no more than any standard series, and trying the free episodes first is the sensible move. Intrigued rather than put off by the concept? Then those two free episodes will settle whether the final three earn your 36 tokens.
