Our first stay in Montevideo was quite pleasant and we decided to book this place as it had decent reviews and wasn't going to break the bank. Negatives - STINKY DIRTY BATHROOM. There was so much mold in our shower it was horrible. As soon as you stepped into the shower, you could just smell an old, musty, dirty smell.... More

The room was in serious need of gutting... (not just repair) the bathroom looked like it was from 1970 and I'm being generous. The facilities were all brown? The ceiling in the bathroom was covered in mold and was actually falling down in the shower because of the mold. There are so many other hotels in the area, stay somewhere... More

When I first saw my room, I thought it needed a little work, but then I had the breakfast & it was incredible as is the lobby and the wonderful staff & the location is absolutely outstanding. It is near Plaza La Cajancha that is gorgeous & when you have breakfast you look out to incredible architect. A few steps... More

We stayed on may 7th for one night because of the location downtown MVD. The room was extremely small and noisy. Half of the outside shutters were missing, so we could not cut the road noise at all. We asked for another room, but were told they were full. After an enjoyable visit in the Solis Theatre we had a... More

After a few days hostel-travelling was it a really good change to stay for 3 nights in a hotel. This hotel was absolutely fine, clean not that big rooms but very closed to the city center. We had really 3 good days in Montevideo! More

This hotel was chosen by the organisation of the course I was attending due to its excellent location in the center of Montevideo. I shared a tiny room with two twin beds with a colleague. The room smelled of mold and cleaning products. Lots of my colleagues who were staying in the hotel came down with allergies. I had a... More

The room was ok, but on the small side in terms of space - I had to re-arrange the furniture to be able to open my large suitcase. The room was also somewhat noisy with respect to outside traffic during most of the night - I recommend earplugs. The bathroom was clearly not originally purpose designed for the room, it... More

This hotel was by far the worst one I have ever been in my life. There were bug beds. I woke up in middle of the night covered by the bugs sucking my blood. They were all over the bed, the walls and my body. I had to change hotels immediatelly. The matress were completely torn and durty, as well... More

The rooms are a bit noisy and can get cold soon so you need to put on the air conditioning for heating all night. The breakfast is normal but perfect. Second night I asked for an extra blanket but the girl behind the reception said they didn't have any extra.The next night a very nice guy was siting there and... More
