Best rooms
Request a room on the third or fourth floor facing the interior courtyard (away from the street). These upper floors will be quieter and benefit from less foot traffic.
Request a room facing away from Villamayor to minimise road noise, ideally on the first floor (ground floor in local numbering) for easier access without a lift.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid any room on the ground floor or first floor, especially those facing the street (Rocha is a small town but the main road can have traffic noise, and ground-floor rooms may also hear the reception or breakfast area). Also skip rooms near the stairwell or service lift if you're a light sleeper.
Avoid rooms directly overlooking Villamayor as it's likely a secondary road with passing traffic, and interior rooms near the main entrance or reception area due to footfall noise.
Wi-Fi
Free basic WiFi (2 Mbps) in lobby and rooms; premium tier (10 Mbps) available for UYU 200 per device per day
