I am thinking of traveling to MVD early next year.  I need to know of a temporary place to stay.  I will not have a car.  I need access to transportation and will need to find a more permanent place to stay.  I think a roommate situation would be great, hopefully with expats.  I am studying Spanish, but English would be helpful to start.  You can find more about me on Facebook.  My name is Penny Scott.  Telephone # in US is 530-953-5693.  Penny

Hello Penny.

You could post an advert in the Housing in Montevideo section. It can help. :)

PS: For safety reasons, avoid putting your phone number on a public forum.

Thank you,

Hi Penny,

THE cheapest hotel to stay in MVD is the Hotel Tres Cruces.  It is like staying in a college dorm room with lots of hot water.  The neighborhood is so-so, and fine during the day but you may want to stay in after 10PM.  The Hotel is located 1 block from the main bus station, and so it is easy to get anywhere from there to anywhere in the country, let alone in MVD.  I would contact them and see if you can negotiate say a two week stay ro something for cheaper than their nightly rate.  If not, and you are absolutely certain you want to go there, I will set you up with my real estat agaent who has rented many apartments.  Only thing is he does not like to waste his time on people who are uncertain if they are coming, or what to spend, etc.

Hi Penny:

I too am thinking about moving to Uruguay, in July, for probably 3 to 6 months. I was wondering if you could pass along any information you unearthed about a place to stay?

I'm an online writer plus I'm starting to do some internet marketing stuff so I'll be looking for dependable skype and YouTube. Have you had any experience with those topics yet?

Myself...I'd be happy with just a room with an internet connection. Most of my entertainment will be dancing (I'm into Salsa and Bachata and I want to learn Tango).

Any advice would be appreciated,

Regards,
Art

Hi Art,

I usually recommend people use airbnb.com for short-term rentals. It's a lot less hassle. If you want to ask some questions about locations after using the site, post them here and I'll help you.
