I'm wondering if i can use Google nest hub 2 in the hostel i live

[Tilwil]

I live in a hostel and we have one common wifi network. The problem is that it has AP isolation and there is no way to turn it off.  This prevents the devices from finding each other (appears the message "connection is established, but the device cannot be found". It also says to disable wifi isolation). I'm wondering if there is any way to eliminate the isolation between my devices (smartphone, nest hub) while connected to this network? Perhaps installing a wifi repeater in the room will help? Tell me what you know, please.

Chromecast, Google Home, and Google Nest devices don't support these kind of Wi-Fi systems unfortunately. There are a couple of possible solutions for this:

1. Although unsupported by Google, you can try to use a phone or tablet as a Wifi hotspot. However, this will then use your mobile data plan, which could be expensive for you depending on the data plan you have with your carrier. Note you will need 2 devices to set this up.
• Turn on the Wifi hotspot feature on a phone or tablet. If you're not sure how to do this, refer to the manufacturer's support website.
• Connect a second phone or tablet to that Wifi hotspot.
• You can then use that second phone or tablet to setup your device and connect it to the Wifi hotspot on the first phone or tablet.
  
  
2. If you're able to use  a wired network connection instead, you could invest in your own cheap Wi-Fi router, that doesn't have client/AP isolation enabled, connect that router to the wired network provided and connect your devices to that router instead.
