Nice review of the hotel and of the surrounding area. Glad you enjoyed Uruguay. Very few Americans ever venture there. South America is a great place to explore. Look forward to your next destination!
Fresh Market supermarket (in fact Disco or Devoto but not all Disco’s and Devoto’s) are very complete but the one you visited is a small one (express like). The best are in the upscale areas like Punta Carretas or Portones in Carrasco neighborhood, and obviously in Punta del este.
Looking forward to visiting! BTW, when you level up to Diamond with IHG, they will supposedly comp the breakfast at Holiday Inns. We find it interesting that Holiday Inn Express provides free breakfast but Holiday Inn does not.
After hearing of all your perks, I do have my regrets now not getting Diamond however, the 2nd half of this year will be in Albania which has zero IHG. At the time, thought it wouldn't be beneficial for this year. I was incorrect. This hotel's dining options are not computerized. The bar \ cafe uses carbon paper that you sign and at the end of your stay, you get the original back. The breakfast buffet just takes your room number and charges it. I feel as though some of the breakfasts were missing (lost in translation?) and after looking at the receipt, non consistent pricing for those that they did charge. All in all, the tab was much lower than I expected but so far 10x the points for the eats. #UseTheCard Safe Travels
@PrejeanWithAPassport carbon paper? Now, that is quaint! We must be using the same travel selection criteria, because Albania is on our short list too!
So glad you enjoyed, Mr. Prejean! Next time, you gotta visit Uruguay's eastern coastline 😉🌊🏖️🏄♂️☀️✨
Loved the video, loved seeing you and mom. Safe travels.❤❤
Very nice, of course! Informative! Safe travels! Miss you guys!

Thank you buddy. Really did enjoy the stay in Montevideo. Perfect weather for December and early January.
