Well located in the old town. Although an old building, it is suitably upgraded within. Friendly staff. A little difficult to navigate to it's off-site parking site (use your Google Maps). The breakfast is very light, but there are great restaurants and grocery stores within easy walking distance.

Very nice older hotel which is pretty good value. Lots of restaurants in this historic area. The only concern is the level of noise at night - I would request a room that doesn't border the main street as "bums" frequent the street and yell all night long. The staff at this hotel are excellent - the room was small but very clean and the breakfast not worthwhile.

The room was not that spacious. The overall experience was good. The breakfast was good and the staff friendly. Missing suggesting tour's flyers and printed suggestions brochures for one day excursions as well, should be inside the hotel. I had to find out myself about where to go, thing that I did by myself. The overall experience was good.

All the staff were excellent, but I would like to give a very big thanks to Oscar at the desk. He was an outstanding host: always helpful, mapping out where to go, arranging transportation, and being such an open and engaging person.

My husband's birthday was noted from his passport, and the kitchen staff (notably Amparo) surprised us at breakfast with an Uruguayan delicacy bearing a candle! "Happy Birthday" played. We feared the pedestrian street below our windows would be noisy, but only one night was loud. The sunlight in the room was amazing. We walked to everything: museums, galleries, monuments. Very centric! Many good restaurants nearby, and a supermarket across the street. No beach, but we're from Puerto Rico and we didn't come to swim in April.

Used this hotel as a home base for a day trip. Outstanding location. Cant beat the price. Dont expect much though if youre staying for multiple nights.

It’s in la cuidad vieja very close to the port where many cruise ships dock and many tourists in the area restaurants and bars very friendly people. Around the corner of the hotel is a very popular pedestrian walk way with shops and bars even at night its safe in this area police station on back corner street with many officers walking around. Hotel is simple with a/c and very friendly staff.

Little gem in a crowded urban area. Secure scan entrance. Once inside, quiet, nice, clean and modern. All staff I dealt with were pleasant and upbeat. Room was clean and modern. Only thing to consider is that the bathroom is small and tight space. I’m 5’7”, so if you’re a bigger person, you might struggle with the space. Otherwise, great 3 night stay for me.

The hotel is in the historical part of Montevideo and close to the well known, although somewhat pricey, quite large restaurant area, where meat is king. The breakfast was pleasing, but could have offered just a little more.

A nice and reasonably priced hotel near the Peatonal Sarandi and Pérez Castellano walking streets in the portlands mercado area. Rooms are clean and comfortable, air conditioning and wifi are excellent, very eco-friendly. Staff are professional, friendly and everyone at the desk speaks decent English if your Spanish language skills are as weak as mine. Very happy with my stay there.

The reception by Oscar was esplendid, a person that make your stay confortable and frendly. He's the type of person that provides the added value to any company. The hotel is vey nice and convenient, it's very close to the port, with low luggage could be a walking distance from the Port.

The location is great if you're getting off, or going to the ferry - it's an easy walk and straightforward. The staff were kind and helpful, and the men at the front desk all spoke English. The surrounding area is a bit sketchy - towards the dock is vibrant and interesting, but further away it becomes quite scary and not a place to go at night. The rooms are small and a bit dated, but comfortable and quiet. It's a great place to spend a night before heading off on an Uruguay adventure.

Great hotel, very clean and comfortable. Reception staff were all very professional, friendly and helpful. The room was well appointed and clean, the bed was super comfortable. Only slightly negative point was the breakfast, however it was very cheap and worth the money, I would have preferred to pay more and have a better choice including hot food and egg dishes. I loved the location, I was visiting shops in the port which is only a 5 minute walk from tbe hotel. Great for public transport, cafes, bars restaurants and supermarkets. Highly reccommended.

This hotel is across the street from Mercado del Puerto where there is dining, and shopping options. Hotel has a great location in the old town city center. A very walkable area with a supermarket and pharmacy around the corner. Also within walking distance to Las Ramblas. Just across the street from hotel there is a bus stop where you can take multiple buses which take you all around the city. Hotel personnel were very nice and helpful.. Oscar at the front desk was extremely nice and very helpful.. he would guide us on what bus to take to reach different areas of the city. Hotel is remodeled and very clean. Also a big plus is bathroom has standup shower which is very easy to get in and out of. Thank You for a great 11 day stay.
