Smart Hotel Montevideo

Smart Hotel Montevideo

8/10 Good
"Smart Hotel Montevideo was perfect for our trip. The location is ideal for exploring the historic parts of the city on foot. The entire hotel, including our room, was spotless. The area around the hotel isn't the prettiest, but it felt safe at all times. The service was top-notch—the young man working at reception (I unfortunately forgot his name) was incredibly helpful and attentive. We could stay here again!"
