Guest Reviews

• Remedios García (8/5): -
• Karine (8/5): Local limpo, organizado e bem localizado - Atendimento foi muito bom e o quarto muito confortável Foi tudo ok
• Andrei (3/5): - The receptionist was kind and helpful. The entire place seems very old and poorly maintained. Mold covers the bathroom walls, and the showers are in bad shape. There's no soundproofing, so you can hear everything from other rooms. Cockroaches are everywhere in the kitchen. I wanted to cook, but I wasn't told about the time limit. Everything is very dirty in the kitchen. Overall, there are many issues with this location, and I think the price is too high for what you get. The payment process feels shady. I had to pay through an online system that asked for my card details, including the CVV, which isn't secure. Also, the area is dangerous with many people using drugs outside the building. I was threatened by one of the addicts and had to be careful when I got back home to avoid him, as he was always around threatening everyone.

• César (10/5): - Bin Si
• NICOLAS EZEQUIEL (3/5): Lo único que destacó es el personal amable, el resto deja muchísimo que desear, dueños porfavor inviertan en mobiliario - El personal súper amable, muy cálidos, por ellos todo bien Los dueños se ve que no invierten un peso para poder mejorar el ambiente y el mobiliario, muebles rotos, con humedad y sillas y sillones con manchas, además de las cucarachas dando vuelta en la cocina imperdonable
• Ollivier (8/5): Hostel charmant mais quartier craignos le soir - Le personnel L'architecture, hôtel ancien au charme indéniable L'insonorisation, très mauvaise Quartier peu recommandable le soir Il a y a eu un overbooking pour une deuxième nuit, du coup j'ai dû partir

• Giramondo05 (7/5): Bien pero muy ruidoso por la noche - Hostel situado en la Ciudad Vieja, cercano al puerto. Es una casona antigua, con escalera central hacia donde dan todas las puertas de las habitaciones que están en el primer piso. Los anfitriones gentiles y disponibles, cobran en efectivo, pero no dan recibo. La limpieza es muy buena en las áreas comunes y sobre todo en baños y duchas. En la habitación un poco menos, ya que las superficies en las mesas de luz tenian pegotes y pasando una toallita húmeda salió bastante sucia. Tampoco habia lamparita en la veladora, por lo que era necesario levantarse y encender o apagar desde al lado de la puerta. La mayoria de las habitaciones no tienen ventana, ya que dan a la escalera central y solo tienen puertas antiguas con una banderola en la parte superior. Hay pocas habitaciones con ventanas a la calle. En la habitación había un ventilador potente, aunque ruidoso como la helice de un avión. Las sabanas limpias. Toallas a pedido. Entregan una mediana por persona. En conjunto, las instalaciones son las esperadas para un hostel, y para el costo de las habitaciones. A destacar la limpieza de los baños y que tenían los necesario como jabón y papel. Tambien el anfitrión que me llamó un taxi por la mañana. Gracias. La recepción funciona desde las 8-9 a las 23 hs. Durante ese horario todo funciona muy bien en el hostel. Pero luego de las 23 hs. empieza un ir y venir de personas en el hostel, huespedes y no. Hasta las 4 am estuvo entrando y saliendo gente por lo que fué imposible dormir. La puerta tiene una chicharra que suena muy fuerte como una alarma, y eso es lo primero que te despierta, luego se encienden las luces de escalera y pasillos, iluminando toda la habitación por la banderola, que es priva de cortina oscurante y la única ventilación, por lo que no se puede cerrar. Para terminar, huéspedes maleducados que suben las escaleras a los gritos y risas, haciendo mucho ruido y no considerando que en ese horario otras personas hospedadas necesitaban dormir. Por lo tanto, este hostel no está recomendado para personas que esperan dormir por la noche y recorrer la ciudad al día siguiente desde la mañana. Tambien el movimiento de personas no registradas dentro del hostel, plantea una cuestión de seguridad.
• Marcia (8/5): Localização privilegiada e excelente custo-benefício. - Cozinha completa e funcionários atenciosos. Espaço aberto para relaxar e churrasqueira A porta do quarto não fecha muito bem. Nosso primeiro quarto não tinha janela, mas solicitei a troca e prontamente nos transferiram. Não tem estacionamento.

• Juliette (7/5): - La chambre était confortable et les douches étaient chaudes. Bien placé dans le centre ville La cuisine et la chambre n’étaient pas très propres et les douches ne donnent pas d’intimité (pour se déshabiller et se re habiller)

• Kyle Nicholas (5/5): Location is really scary, much better options near the plaza - The building is old and looks cool with high ceilings, the staff were friendly. Location is AWFUL, a really seedy part of the old town which is already not great, we didn’t walk alone or at night around here. Saw a homeless guy with a shard of glass threatening people outside the hostel, we left early. No air conditioning at all and not clean, the furniture and building is very old and smells. Brown stains on the bed…
• Huberto (5/5): no es mi favorito - el albergue no es un chef de prima categoria - hay mejores alternativas ! wifi extremadamente pobre todo dl edificio estaba muy calido estado de la cochina - indescriptible 👎 no hay ningun cartel en la puerta xe entrada hay refrigerador en la habitacion pero no hay toma de corriente adecuada

• Jose Luis (9/5): Excelente precio y ubicación - Excelente precio!! Facilidad de cocinar en este espacio, los anfitriones son muy acomedidos, también se puede lavar la ropa y extenderla en la zotea, se seca el mismo día por el clima. Recomendado 100% Los implementos de cocina están muy averiados, deberían reemplazarlos por nuevos.
• sylwia (6/5): Jeśli nie jesteś wymagający i potrzebujesz tylko przespać się kilka dni + kuchnia to polecam. - Fajna wspólna przestrzeń oraz bardzo miły personel. Duszący zapach lisoforu przez kilka godzin w pokoju. Ale wolę to niż mieć insekty.

• Darío (10/5): -
• Hugo (5/5): LUGAR ECONOMICO PARA MOCHILEROS - La ubicación La habitación y servicios muy básicos.
• Catalina (10/5): Pero le doy un 9 - La mejor zona turistica de montevideo ciudad vieja se ha convertido en los mejores paisajes y estabamos a metros de todo. El precio fue lo mejor😁 Creo que todo es muy bueno pero yo le agregaria una pequeña atencion al cliente de un cafesito por las mañanas con una medialuna o una cokis😁
• Arturo (8/5): -
• MARCOS VINICIUS ALVES (2/5): Péssimo lugar - Os voluntários! Local muito sujo, banheiros precários, precisa de muita manutenção, quartos com mofo, muita sujeira, escada para subir no último andar, danificada!
• rivero (8/5): - Por el precio no se puede esperar mas la ubicacion es muy buena, la atencion muy buena Que es como estar en una casa compartida, es para viajero solo o si quieren estar de paso nada mas, si necesitan o quieren privacidad no serviria.
• Fernando (9/5): Recomendo. - Localização e estrutura. Falta de equipamentos de cozinha, já que é um hostel.
• Leonardo (8/5): -
• PATRICIA (5/5): Solo por necesidad de cercanía se eligió. No volvemos - El alojamiento fue elegido por la proximidad a oficinas que teníamos que frecuentar. Extremadamente sucio. Desde que entras.

• Daniel (9/5): - Staff were lovely, so friendly and helpful at check in and check out. Great location, close to a supermarket, several restaurant options and walking distance to key attractions. We booked the apartment which was very spacious and had its own cooking facilities and bathroom. Shower pressure was very weak, no plug by the bedside that we could see. A few cosmetic issues but nothing major

• Camila (10/5): -
• Verified traveler (4/5): - O hostel tem aspecto charmoso, porém, está descuidado. Tive alguns problemas com minha acomodação, o pessoal tentou resolver, Mas acredito que não deveria por anúncio do quarto com aquela condição.
• Andres (9/5): -
• paz (6/5): - La limpieza mucho ruido en la calle. Es un lugar que está ubicado en el centro y en la parte baja hacen fiesta y el ruido no te deja descansar
• Darío (10/5): -
• Agustin (4/5): - El armario era grande y daban más sábanas si hacían falta No daban toallas de mano, y no había un solo repasador limpio decentemente para secar las manos y la vajilla
• Christina (7/5): Good - The building is quite beautiful, not far from the main old city square. Plenty of services and amenities within a 4-block walk. It was sooo cold inside, most residents were as dressed with jackets and hats inside as we would be for outside. While the main areas were constantly cleaned, there was a lot of dust on the windowsills. Sheets and towels were pretty old and well worn. It's in an area of town between the old city and the docks, which generally didn't feel very safe - especially at night.
• buddytogo23 (6/5): Montevideo ( no chic ) but HISTORICO hostel ! - Great staff nice place ! Location very good and close to shops , restaurants , markets , attractions ! Room okay with balcony and enough space with confo bed . Night the sector a bit dangerous with gangs , beggars ect...A good 7/10 . Good for a short stay !
• Explorer999 (8/5): Very good -
• Rado (5/5): For a night mightbe ok. If you are very tolerant. - The hostel is centrally located close to the main square and grocery stores. The staff is friendly and can communicate in English. The street outside hostel is gathering spot for street people and as such feels rather uninviting and you as a guest of the hostel need to tolerate their loud behavior mostly int the evenings and nights. The room I was given initially had the door lock broken, so the door could not have been closed(was given substitute). The kitchen has a roach problem, witnessed a few of the during my breakfast. Speaking of kitchen, it is located adjacent to men's washroom with non closing door, so anyone in the kitchen can hear the the "business" in the washroom. Yummy....Honestly, in my opinion the hostel for what it offers is overpriced and the all the high rating is probably form the "high" stuff which is part of everyday life in Montevideo.
• Shawn (10/5): - I had a great stay at Montevideo Chic Boutique Hostel! The location was perfect—central and safe, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The room was a good size, comfortable and clean, which made for a relaxing stay. I really appreciated the practical amenities like the washer and clothes line—super handy for longer stays. The staff were all friendly and helpful, always ready with tips or a smile. Overall, a great value and a cozy place to stay in Montevideo. Highly recommen.
• Lynn (9/5): Really enjoyed staying here the staff were lovely and helpful - Staff, decor and location Bed could have been bigger
• Peter (10/5): Something different, & well worth the visit. - Lovely place, friendly and easy-going. The house is full of character and the roof looking over the docks is great. Ciudad Vieja is a good and interesting place to stay (tho it can feel a bit sketchy at night) - so if you're not bothered about shared bathrooms, overall this place is a treat.
• Sérgio (9/5): Superb -
• David (10/5): Review, Great Place - Super nice staff! I really loved it here the room was great!
• Orfeuo (7/5): Good - Excellent location. This hostel is an city manor which has advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side super high ceilings and entrance to a lovely balcony. On the downside, squeaking, antiquated furniture and doesn't score high in terms of privacy. The staff are professional Furniture is a bit rustique and could do with a bit more deep cleaning.
• Jasper (8/5): Great little hostel for one night. - Great little hostel in the center close to the old town. Dangerous neighborhood at night. And could use some refurbishments or improvements here and there. Then also be happy to pay a little extra of course
• Sandra (7/5): Good - Stayed for one night before taking the ferry to Buenos Aires. Just perfect location for that. Had a room with a tiny balcony looking onto the street. The street creates some noise, however tolerable for a big city. No sign outside the house. Hard to spot it. Fridges could be cleaner.
