Opta Coliving

Everything was satisfactory

The spa and spa team are pleasant / productive including the massages and sauna. The gym is functional though could it use some care and repairs. The pool is great for relaxation or 25 meter laps. The Opta staff are kind, helpful, and pleasant. The location is both convenient and wonderful (i.e., near La Rambla, bus depot, restaurants, bars, parks, and mall if you need it). Many guests play billiards pool and ping pong. The various spaces to read or work on a laptop are convenient. Laundry is on site, irons are in the laundry room. I only encountered three issues that may be important for sensitive sleepers. 1) The in-room router or cable box contains a bright blue light that is unnoticeable during the day. When all the lights are off and curtains are closed at night, that blue light is very bright. You will need to cover it or unplug it if you don’t want ambient light. 2) Where the closed curtains meet, a slight gap remains at the top, a common issue. So, it is difficult to achieve total darkness. I never did achieve total darkness with the blue light and this curtain gap. 3) The mattress was uncomfortable. I rarely felt comfortable and didn’t sleep through the night once. It was both too hard on the edges and would sink in the middle. I weigh a semi-muscular 215 lbs or 97 kgs.

One of the worst stays I have experienced in a while. The bed linens were stained and the kitchen facilities were poorly stocked. The communications were a nightmare, resulting in a lot of runaround. And despite do not disturb sign, the cleaning staff kept knocking on the door while I was in the room on calls. The final straw was when, despite the do not disturb sign, a housekeeper walked into my room while I was on a webinar, likely assuming I was not there. I checked out early. The view was nice and the pool looked nice, though.

Great hotel with good amenities I do recommend it.

We had heard good things about the space but unfortunately our experience left us disappointed. The staff was very friendly and helpful but the room in itself was not very clean, there was a strong smell of smoke / weed in a room that was meant to be a non smoking room and there was no working air conditioning as the console was completely smashed and coming out of the wall. I can’t recommend this for a short stay given the price point and our experience

Good

Poor concierge

What an excellent stay. Love the style of hotel , there should be many more of these type hotels around the world. Excellent stay

👍

Good amenities but we were denied getting new towels twice during a 3 night stay. There are also no towels for use with the pool or hot tub so you have to use the two room towels for that as well, and won’t be able to have them washed. That’s a pretty poor experience.

Practical, convenient, great atmosphere

Very clean hotel, bed was comfortable and the spa was very nice.

The air conditioner was not working, I attempted to use it because I wanted to keep the room's atmosphere warmer, but I saw a note stating that the AC was out of service, that was inconvenient.

Everything was good

Very comfortable hotel in a quiet, safe neighborhood. There are several good restaurants nearby, and shopping is within walking distance. The hotel is near the ocean, making morning walks along the shore an imperative. I enjoyed my stay.

The price of this establishment is really good! We are very likely to stay here every time we go to Montevideo! The location is perfect!

Love it!

A great bargain! They

Everything about the hotel is good, except the free bicycle rent service. My bike chain came off, but I fixed it in 5 minutes. Bicycles there avaliable for rent are functional but broken. Like you can ride them but they are about to fall apart. I guess it can still last for 6 years.

Close to bus stations, Punta Carretas shopping center (many good food options). This hotel is close enough to Tre-Cruces bus station that taking a public bus is more than adequate. Washing + dryer on site is a huge plus!
