Philip

This is likely / literally my fault, but I didn't think to check that the hotel / reception would be open 24 hrs. When I showed up to the hotel at 2:30 AM from the airport after 2 terrible days of sleeping in airports, the hotel was closed. Luckily, the streets were clean, the homeless friendly, and there was a bench to sleep outside on the street around the corner. Verify the hours that reception is open! Maybe it's the bad American in me, but I just assumed hotels were open 24 hrs per day.

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.

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.

Good for a quick stay
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.

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.

Good location, helpful service. Rooms are ok, but very small. Worse, in the small courtyard next to the room were a dozen large ACs that made sleep nearly impossible.

Great hotel, fantastic staff.
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.
