The first room was not good (has a bad washroom smell). I asked the front desk for another room. Julio, the attendant at the moment, moved me to a different room, which was in much better condition. The breakfast was included (it was simple, the coffee was good, they didn't offered eggs) Location was great: 1 block from Playa Brava and 2 blocks from Gorlero ave. You get what you paid for. Overall, this hotel is a 2 start hotel in Punta Del Este.

Hotel velho, sem manutenção em dia. Roupas de cama estavam sujas, cheiro ruim e encardidas. O café da manhã tambem não era lá essas coisas. O recepcionista não foi cordial. Não recomedamos e obviamente não voltaremos.
