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 bem lindo e cheiroso, ótima localização, perto de tudo, fizemos todos os passeios a pé. A recepcionista muitoo simpática e prestativa, conseguimos fazer o check in antes e nosso retorno estava marcado para depois do check out e pudemos deixar a mala na recepçao do hotel e seguir fazendo passeios até o horário que voltaríamos! Único ponto ruim é o café da manhã que tinha pouquíssimas coisas e o espaço também tem poucas mesas para sentar. Mas quando retornamos a PDE nós hospedaremos nele novamente

A piscina está fechada e a jacuzzi só pode uma hora de utilização por quarto, independente de quantas diárias, as demais se quiser é com hora marcada e US 10 a hora. O café da manhã somente pão de forma, margarina e doce, além de um pedacinho de bolo e um copo de suco de laranja. O serviço é terceirizado e a cafeteria, no hotel, aceita comprar outros itens.Leite somente frio. Para resumir, apenas o quarto e o atendimento da recepção eram perfeitos. Era melhor que dissessem que o o café fosse a parte.
