While the Lafayette appears to have been built (30? 40? years' ago) to 4-star standard, it is now out-of-date. But, still fully functionable. If you choose to stay here because it's the cheapest 4-star in town, you really have no right to complain about it. (Want better, pay more elsewhere.) Booked through agoda, LaFytte staff at check-in first insisted I had to stay in a room on the 2nd floor, one in front of the street and too noisy. Finally, they agreed to move me up to 6th floor and while the room was also on the street side, it had a new noise-blocking window. A comfortable sleep. strong, quiet AC. ok cable TV, but no news in English channel. free WIFI signal low, though, in room 606. Nothing noteworthy in furnishings, just basic. breakfast the only thing that could be justly criticized at the Lafayette. good, inexpensive laundry across the street, a block down on the left side. Location of this hotel excellent for downtown Montevideo.

Not an option. Located in a busy street with buses and lots of pollution in the room. Weak service, breakfast and doubtful cleanness. Not an option, even for the price paid.

Good hotel, helpfull staff, well located, clean and safe!

I stayed in this hotel in January. One good thing is that you can you use free computers and/or free internet with your notebook. The swimming pool is also good. The breakfast is also very good. I liked the Cleanness of the room. The size of the room is adequate. But the internet didn't work in the room. So I had to go to the lobby to use my notebook. One thing that i didn't like at all was the A/C, it was very noisy. So I was I wasn't able to use it at night, when it was very hot, because of the noise of the A/C. The decor is very old, but not a big problem. THe location is really good, close to the main spots. It is in an safe area. There many good restaurants close to the hotel. The TV was also good, it had a good variety of channels and good image.
