Even though the property has its charm as a building from a different era, the staff should work on improving their service skills, and the amenities and facilities could be better.

Great place w/an old nostalgic vibe. Felt a bit like a ghost town w/most shops closed. Maybe because it was winter time. Urea’s a whole was underwhelming. Maybe in the summer it is more lively. Still a cool historic looking hotel & walking distance to main plaza, market & old town!

The hotel had character and was in a good location to see the city centre. The centre of Montevideo is a bit run down and lacking in sights compared to Colonia or other countries. If you go to Montevideo this hotel is cheap and makes a comfortable base to stay.

The staff are really helpful. The place oozes character with antique lift and furniture. Coffee lounge with free coffee if you are waiting for departure or in my case waiting for a room to be ready for my early check in. Noisy at night. Hotel backs onto a little plaza used by skateboarders and others. But this may be expected in any central hotel.

We were yelled up because we had left the door opened. During checking out, we were silenced by the receptionist when we said “good morning” because there was someone sleeping there. We were also scolded because we had left the elevator door opened.
