"Hotel el Jardin" Salto Hotel Tip by barryg23

Hotel el Jardin was 100 pesos cheaper than our first hotel, Hotel Concordia, so we moved here after the first night. It's located further away from the main square, towards the river but still in easy walking distance of the centre. Though it doesn't have as much character as Concordia, I think this is a better place to stay. The TV reception was better, the bathrooms were nicer and the guy running the place was very friendly. Every time we pass reception he was watching sport and he´s the first Uruguayan I´ve met who was following the rugby world cup (and he said he was cheering for Ireland against Argentina!) The only negative I can think of is breakfast wasn't included, especially as there weren't too many cafes in Salto.
