Visited Uruguay for 7 days. Solid experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $63/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.
