N help me to book a local tour on the follow day. So I can utilize my short day. And see more other than just the beach.. The hotel provides very basic service, it's very clean. I like the bed linens and the towel which are very white and good quality. ||Also the breakfast is very nice , It comes with Fresh orange juice, yogurt drink, coffee, fruits cup, water melon, different kind of bread, cream cheese, cheese and ham, jam, etc. I like the very classic cup and the cupboard. ||You can take the breakfast at the outdoor garden as well. Very nice especially in the morning. ||All the staff are very friendly. And they are flexible on the check out time in order to fit your schedule,( please check if you need), even I can take a shower after swam with the fur seal in Atlantic ocean before check out. It's a wonderful experience. ||The bar is also very classic you can't find the same style in other hotels. ||As I am not paying a 4 or 5 stars hotel price in Punta del Este. At the price I paid, it was worth it and more than I expected. ||Last but not least, the location is super super convenient, close to bus terminal, the popuular restaurant, beachs and the bar and shopping mall. All in walking distance. ||Highly...
