Dazzler by Wyndham Montevideo

8/10 Good

"Good hotel in Punta Carretas, close to everything. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It is a bit older and worn, (the sink in room 508 was cracked and patched). Also there were almost no available sockets for charging our devices. The spa was great, offering at and dry sauna, whirlpool and massages. The breakfast buffet is OK, some bread options, scrambled eggs, potatoes with onions, cereals, fruit, artificial orange juice, apple juice, coffee was not great though. All in all, it is good enough to explore Montevideo easily."
