broken elevator

The hotel is located just a short walk from the main shopping street of Montevideo, making it convenient for exploring the area.

The elevator didn't work during our stay, forcing us to use the stairs frequently, which was quite inconvenient.

I stayed in a Standard Twin Room for 5 nights. The room was clean with a nice terrace view. Breakfast was decent but lacked variety. The noise from neighbors was a bit annoying. It was a solid stay, just a few things to improve.

mold spots

The breakfast was disappointing with lack of variety, and many amenities in the room were broken. The shower caused a waterfall effect, soaking the bathroom each time we used it. I also noticed mold spots in both the bathroom and the bedroom, which marred the overall cleanliness of our stay.

Had a great stay in a clean, modern room with comfortable amenities. The breakfast was fantastic, featuring lots of fresh fruit, bread, and local options. Very convenient location near main attractions and delicious empanadas just across the street. WiFi was reliable throughout our stay.

Noise from the elevator was a bit annoying.

I stayed in a Standard Twin Room for 5 nights. The room was clean and they switched me to one with a terrace and a great view when I needed a table to work. However, it was quite noisy at times, and you could hear the neighbors pretty well. Overall, it was decent but didn’t feel super cozy at night.
