Alright visit

The hostel was alright - don’t put your expectations to high. The room was not cleaned very well but at least the bed looked clean. Also the room there worn. Most of the staff was alright - but especially one from the staff where more busy smoking marijuana than doing her job.

Terrible experiencia

Apenas llegué al hotel para hacer el check in y en mucho en la recepción solo me mirabu sigue hablando con los amigos. Le dijeron los amigos, atendélo por qué aún sabiendo que estaba ahí , no me atendía y uno en forma de chiste me dice que me va a atender cundo termine su té, refiriéndose al muchacho de la recepción. Al fin me atiende y mi pasaporte tiene un estuche que es de otro país y de mala manera me dice que el pasaporte tiene que estar con el estuche del país que es mientras lo deja colgar agarrando de la hija de la.fotografia la.cual.se pudo haber roto y dejarme en serios problemas ya que al otro día tenía un vuelo. Le comento que soy compatriota y te textualmente me dice ( pero seguro que sos de provincia de forma burlona y con mirada de desprecio) eso fue lo peor. Luego cada ves que lo atendía me miraba como si fuera un indigente y que el me estaba haciendo un favor al atenderme. Los otros inquilinos llegaban a cualquier hora y el último llegó a las 3 de la mañana borracho y dese ahí ya no pude dormir. Terrible experiencia. No volvería a visitar ese lugar. Por suerte solo pasaba una noche por qué el baño dejaba mucho que desear ya que estaban las pertenencias de los otros inquilinos regadas por todos lado, con el baño sucio y opté por no usarlo.

Beaucoup mieux que le précédent à l’ancienne adresse qui ressemblait plus à une sorte d’hostel. Celui-ci est tout neuf et ça se voit qu’il vient de se faire renouveler. La propreté est primordiale et cet hôtel respecte ses clients en les laissant dans le confort et la propreté.

Decepcionante

Reservamos um quarto para 2 pessoas e logo na entrada uma pessima impressao - o espaço é colonial mas sem conservação, iluminaçao precaria. O quarto era pequeno, com um ventilador pequeno na parede e sem proteçao, escuro e mal cheiroso, sem janelas - nem albergue para mendigos é tão ruim. Depois que reclamanos, ofereceram outro quarto menos ruim se pagassemos a mais. Estavamos cansadas da viagem e ja era noite por isso tivemos que dormir la. No outro dia, nos cobraram pelo café-da-manhã sendo que nossa diaria teria incluso o dejejum. Devolveram parte das 3 diarias pagas mas tivemos que arranjar um outro hotel as pressas e saimos de lá. Eles tinham o selo do Hostelling Internacional na porta de entrada mas havia perdido a credencial há mais de um ano. A construção é estilo colonial e tem grande potencial mas está muito mal conservada e administrada. Pena!

Quarto espaçoso, chuveiro agravel, porem sem ventilação, com cheiro de mofo forte (e não tinham outro quarto disponivel), café da manhã com o basico do básico ( de fruta só laranja todos os dias e pão apenas de forma), talheres e pratos sujos. Localização boa.

This is a great hostel to stay at in Montevideo. Its located close to the city centre and to everything you need. The staff are friendly and helpful. Its a good hostel to chill back in the evenings and listen to people playing music. The one thing dont stay in room 11 its next to the kitchen and common area so it really noisy if you are trying to sleep before 12am.

Os funcionários são excelentes, o bar é legal e o ambiente é incrível. Acredito que o varal poderia ser maior, quase não tivemos espaço para colocar nossas roupas lavadas. Também não tinha onde lavar, eu acredito (pelo menos não vi nada). O quarto tem ar condicionado e ducha, mas a cortina vazia tudo ficar molhado. O wi-fi não pegava no meu quarto, apenas perto da porta. As bikes que eu e minha amiga alugamos eram ótimas e o hostel era bem localizado.
