This review is about my trip to Uruguay in January 2008.
About Uruguay
-------------------
Well Uruguay is situated in South America and is squashed between Brazil and Argentina.
The country has only got 3.5 million people who live there and that is all so overall the country is rather tiny in population size.
The country has a Presidential government and the most popular language is Spanish.

sprawled out, with many new buildings, such as hotels, shopping malls, tower blocks etc. I get the impression that it has only been in recent years that the local council have decided to sell the city to tourists, as there appears to be lots of works going on to improve the area. The only thing I would say however is that no matter how much work is carried out, Lugo will be constantly overshadowed by the more famous city of Santiago de Compostela, but Lugo is definitely worth a visit.
APARTHOTEL CIUDAD DE LUGO
The hotel itself, I believe, is a modern hotel, established in 2004, and is situated approximately 50 yards outside the Roman wall. It is also situated approximately 5 minutes away from the nearby hospital and the university. The hotel has 39 outward facing rooms with combined sitting rooms, and kitchenette areas ...
