Great hotel! Clean and quiet. Free parking. They do serve breakfast for 3,400 isk per person and they have a dinner buffet for 8,900 isk per person. We thought this was a bit expensive but if you want food right there that’s an option. Would recommend booking a stay !

Spartan hotel
This property was very spartan, reminded me of a red roof or hotel 6. Unlike those, there wasn’t a boiler in room. I’ve experienced this before and most properties have free coffee in lobby. Not here,one needed to pay. Plus no elevator! A newer appearing hotel with no elevator? I would not stay here again

Communal Bathrooms
Not advertised clearly that the bathrooms are communal - there is only a sink (“wash basin”) provided in your bedroom. There were only two toilets and two showers available per every 8-10 rooms or so, and all of the garbage cans in the stalls were overflowing. Also the duvet had several small black stains.

Likely an odd occurrence but the buildings alarms went off about five times between the hours of midnight and 2am which lead to a restless sleep. Hotel staff were not great in communicating nor provided an answer the following morning. Otherwise a fine place and decent location.

Amazing Location, very convenient
Nice modern and clean hotel. It’s almost a suite with microwave and a fridge. Very spacious. Most of all, the location is very convenient. A few minutes walk to the church, botanical garden, and downtown. No need to drive to go to downtown.

These are converted dorm rooms for summer. They are not sound proof and they do not feel very private. The bed mattress hurt my back.

The entire hotel smelled like fish. Our bedroom was above the restaurant and for some reason they have pop music playing so loud i thought a rave was going on under me. I asked the staff to turn it down since the restaurant was empty but it didn’t help much. It was loud until 9pm and the you could hear the music from the bar until midnight. There are no amenities in the room like tv. Should be advertised as more of a hostel than a hotel. The common area with tv and pool table was nice but it closed very early.

Serviceable, Inexpensive
I ended up on the third floor of the older “boarding school side.” The hotel was serviceable and people were readily able to address my concerns. Some aspects of the hotel were a little rough around the edges: third floor walk-up room for me, tourist-bus heavy breakfast times sometimes made it hard to find a seat for breakfast, not too centrally located (big hill down to quite a few sights and run routes). None of those could be helped by the hotel, and did not factor in my ratings, but would be helpful to know. I had a few crumbs in the closet, a few hairs on the bedding, and the drinking on the sink still had a bit of cleaning solution still streaked upon it. All were able to be fixed on my own.
