Very nice staff, always ready to help you. The building is beautiful specially the terrace. Location however is not very good. I felt not very safe getting there at night.

I pretty much liked my stay in El Viajero. They are attentive and friendly. We had a little problem with our reservations and they were so impregnated to work in a solution. Besides that, its close to main tourist points in Montevideo.

Good location and clean hostel but it was often difficult to get information from staff as were always so busy and it would always take so long to ask them anything. Nice hostel but lacked a little in organisation and helpfulness.

I am not quite clear though re the security of the location.... Seems like after 6 it is not a good idea to walk around.

The Staff is very friendly and helpful, if you have questions about Montevideo. When I arrived at the hostel they showed me on a map places of interests and how to go there and additionaly gave me a short guide for interesting places of Montevideo. I unfotunately had to cancel the last of my three nights. I payed all the three nights before, but because I told them 24h before leaving the hostel I got my money back for the third night! Very good!!
