La ubicación

Malísima experiencia, el dueño un atrevido, cucarachas, mugre, colchones duros y viejos, humedad, caluroso, salimos un día antes ya que el señor nos dijo que nos fuéramos si estábamos descontentos, vinieron unos primos de paseo a vernos y quería cobrarnos extra, un tranfuga. Les invito a que lean las reseñas de Booking. No recomendable.

Alojamiento práctico, bien ubicado, ambientes espaciosos

Mejor higiene de la vajilla y artículos de cocina

The apartment is close to town and looks nice on the outside. After that though its all downhill, the word basic crops up a lot. As has been said accommodation in Fray Bentos is crazy expensive and basically I wouldn't bother staying in the town at all because its not a pretty place and there aren't great places to eat either. The museum is well worth seeing and well put together and the Ramblas is a nice walk

We got the split level apartment and while upstairs was very basic the downstairs was grim - we called it the Dungeon. The shower is modern and effective. The whole place needs a paint. the kitchen had zero supplies - not even a teabag. It was fully equipped to cook a meal and make breakfast once supplies were procured - but everything needed a wash in advance.

Fray Bentos is a nice small city. Several beds in the two rooms

Just basic.

Owner was very helpful, answering questions before we had booked, and lived next door so it was easy to collect keys. Apartment was large and quite well located,10 min walk from bus station. Good kitchen table and chairs. Although the apartment was expensive compared to the rest of Uruguay, it was actually reasonably priced compared to the other offerings in Fray Bentos, which are ridiculously expensive! (and very few places to eat)

For us, one of the most important things is a good bed so we can sleep well. This was not the case here. The mattress was very, very firm, but even worse was the fact that is sloped into the centre, strangely only on one side. We stayed in the ground floor apartment, the split level apartment might have a better bed. The free toiletries consisted of 3 small bars of soap only, no shampoo - also there was no hairdryer, but that was quickly rectified. We had to wash glasses etc before using them, as they were dirty. Although the kitchen was well-equipped, there was no sugar, salt, tea (as has been the case in other places we have stayed) and only 2 small sachets of coffee for 2 people for 2 nights. Compared to Colonia, also World Heritage, Fray Bentos has very poor tourism infrastructure, although the site itself is well worth visiting.
