Great value for money, rooms are excellent, spacious and with modern furniture. In my room there were a few minor wear and tear issues needing attention, like minor paint retouches and the safe was locked. But everything else good, towels thick and clean smelling, same for linen, great pillows, the bed was fantastic, nice coffee area, and the bathroom was clean and spacious. Areas outside the room like access corridor and elevators, excellent. The hotel has a small restaurant downstairs.

Views from the room were very nice, and the property had everything we needed. Powerful AC. The staff were very helpful and kind. We arrived early by Buquebus from Buenos Aires, and they stowed our luggage. A day before we arrived we requested a slightly early check-in, but they were unable to accommodate us. It was the one thing they might have been able to do better.

Disappointing
The area was not what we expected. We worried about safety in the area as many shut store fronts and graffiti. We had a double room with a terrace. The mattress and pillows were terrible. I slept with the rough towel as my pillow.Bathroom was generally ok. The kitchenette not really helpful. Centrally located for Plaza Independencia, Mercado and the rambla. Their saving grace and our escape is the American Bar. The reception staff were helpful though not all spoke English. Surely a minimum requirement for hotel reception staff? We hated having to book a time for breakfast. When on vacation one wants to have breakfast when one is ready.

Nice hotel just off the main avenue, but in a bit of a off the beaten path. There are a few sketchy people around but it's very convenient to independence square, Palacio Salvo and old Montevideo. The restaurant recommendations made by the hotel were excellent. I've stayed here before and one thing worth mentioning is the wide swing in pricing, as cheap as $60 per night and sometimes over $100...

Nice, basic hotel. Staff were professional, but didn’t make extra effort to be friendly or helpful. Absolutely no issues, to be clear but a little “sparkle” goes a long way in hospitality. The area was quite noisy, even with window shut and latched, but that can be expected in urban areas. In house restaurant and bar was sufficent, but hours and menu were limited and it was confusing on seating/service/ordering expectations.

Great Hotel but situated near very loud Night Club
The hotel is very pleasantly situated in the downtown area of Montevideo. It is clean, modern and very comfortable. The staff all provided a high level of customer service, although language barriers were sometimes an issue.- but in fairness their English was much better than my Spanish. I would have been very satisfied with the hotel and everything about it. However the stay was ruined by the nearby club whcih oipens from 11.00pm to 5.30am. Throughout the night, the noise of the excessively loud and relentless music, plus the noise of the customers who were partying thoughout the night made sleep impossible.
