27 Suites

Pros +

• For the price, a very nice place to stay. Location is very good -- close to the beach. No food there or complimentary breakfast unless you pay extra for it (off site). The room is, as the name suggests, a suite. Decent size, nice TV, nice bed, view of the beach, bathroom pretty good. Pocitos is a great area to hang because it's not far from the city center or from, say, Carrascos and other Puntas. We found it amazing that the beach area is not very commercial. No one selling/renting umbrellas, chairs, etc. Unlike the U.S. capitalism. No stress. Most of the beaches from Montevideo to Punta del Este has fairly calm water unless there are heavy winds. For those who crave waves and bluer water, you have to further east to Playa Brava....waves crashing!
• The property is located in a great neighborhood and on a quiet street. It is one block from the Rambla and beach and the room was spacious. The property is in close proximity to shopping, restaurants and bus access. We had a larger room so it was nice and spacious and the bed was large. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. They engaged very politely on WhatsApp confirming our check-in, room choice, etc.
• nice apartment, friendly staff, location

Cons -

• This place would receive a higher score if they fixed 2 things (related to staff). The persons manning the front desk were virtually of no help when we asked questions about this and that. They were not friendly. We did not like that. The cleaning person did a very poor job of cleaning in general and unless we asked for new towels, we didn't get them. Although not a big deal, the one elevator is tiny.
• The floor in the room was dirty and light in the bathroom was not bright enough. While there was a coffee maker there was no coffee provided and none in the hotel.
