Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly and helpful enough. This places you right downtown just a block away from Av 18 de Julio and a short walk to Plaza Independencia and the Peatonal Sarandi. The hotel itself and the rooms are unfortunately shabby. My room smelled like a mix of stale cigarettes and mildew. The place needs work. A very poor value relative to the HUGE upgrade you’ll get spending only $5 more per night for another hotel in the area.

Montevideo visita cultural.

Buena limpieza, con cambio de sábanas, estancia 5 días. Ubicación céntrica bien comunicado con ómnibus en la misma calle Colonia. Aunque claro lejos de la terminal Tres Cruces. A unos 25' del mercado del puerto. Buena atención del personal. Habitación con baño completo. Pago con tarjeta. Pero en dólares hubiese resultado mas económico. Falta servicio de desayuno.
