Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was easy to walk to the coast or old town center, or take a bus anywhere else. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel offers a convenient and quick laundry service. The room was comfortable and clean although it was on the smaller side. Breakfast included a variety of food options and was reasonably priced (it was included with some reservations but not mine). Overall I had a great experience.

Una noche para el olvido

En nuestra reserva consta que la habitación debía tener una cama queen size. Al hacer el check in, advertí que eso no se respetó, pues me dieron una doble con dos camas separadas. Solicité el cambio y se me informó que el hotel estaba lleno y que además en la reserva que les mandó Hoteles.com, no estaba detallada esa preferencia en el tipo de cama. Les mostré el correo electrónico en el que Hoteles.com me confirmaba la reserva, pero insistieron que eso no estaba especificado en la comunicación recibida por el hotel. La atención de los recepcionistas es pésima, su disposición para solucionar los problemas a los huéspedes es CERO, tanto en el turno matutino como en el nocturno. Solicité la intervención de un superior pero me lo negaron.

Badly aged hotel. Disappointed.

We thought it was a 4 star hotel, but in reality, it's like a 2.5 star property. First of all, all the facilities are outdated, with only one elevator working when we stayed. The walls are full of cracks, and they don't even provide a single complimentary water bottles to a customer, which I've never seen in my life in a "4 star" hotel. Being inside this aged hotel is quite depressing as well. The only good thing about this hotel was the centric location, but that's it, quite disppotining experience.

Razoável

O atendimento no check in foi correto e cortês. Os problemas começaram quando nos levar ao 5 andar (quarto 506). Ao sairmos do elevador ja sentimos o cheiro de mofo, o andar todo carpetado, mas em péssimo estado. No quarto a situação piorou muito. Tentamos mudar, mas so conseguimos no dia seguinte, tivemos de dormir da janelas abertas para suportar o forte odor. Mo dia seguinte mudamos para p 6 andar (quarto 609), parece que recentemente reformado e sem carpete, e o restp da estadia foi ok. O café é bom, sem luxos. A localização permite facilidade de deslocamento, por ficar a meio caminho entre a cidade velha e a area mais moderna e badalada )Pocitos e arredores). Localizado na area mais central, com os problemas das areas centraos de grandes cidades, mas não tive qualquer sensação de insegurança, andamos com tranquilidade tanto durante o dia, quanto durante a noite. Recomendo pedir para ver o quarto antes de encerrar o check in.

Great location , horrible staff

The location is great , the value is excellent, rates are probably very low because of the pandemic , all the staff aside from housekeeping, could use a class on “ hospitality business 101 “ there were times I thought I was invisible , they either ignore you , or they are just rude …. Room was ok and for this price I don’t complaint the only problem the bathroom sink didn’t have a p trap and every night had to plug the sink , to avoid sleep with sewer odor …come on a simple cheap fix ….

Ubicación muy práctica y habitaciones amplias

La ubicación del hotel es muy práctica (en pleno centro de Montevideo, sobre la avenida principal). La habitación de tipo Superior es espaciosa y cómoda. El personal fue muy amable y servicial, pero tienen poco personal y no dan a basto (tuvimos un problema en la habitación cuando llegamos el viernes por la tarde y nadie pudo resolverlo hasta el sábado porque la persona de recepción no podía dejar su puesto de trabajo y no había nadie de mantenimiento). El desayuno estuvo bien, pero fue un poco decepcionante por la falta de variedad y porque se notaba que los bizcochos no eran de ese día (incluso en pandemia, nos hemos quedado en hoteles de menor calidad con una oferta mucho más amplia, apetitosa y fresca). En general, es un buen hotel pero no es un hotel de cuatro estrellas, como se publicita.
