A hotel located in the north of Egilsstadir. The facilities are relatively old and the service is quite satisfactory.

In Expedia it said the breakfast was included When checking in, the clerk said it was not. If I wanted I had to pay for it, over 22 dollars per person. Not cool.

Not the best place to stay, the building in general has a smell…. Seems that used to be an hospital or maybe a senior care facility. Bathroom wasn’t great, not very clean I won’t recommend it if you have other options

I misunderstood what was meant by private bathrooms, when I booked - this is rooms with a sink, but showers and toilets are shared (each has its own locking door.) Everything was clean and worked out great.

Strange hotel, which looks like it also can serve as student accommodation during off peak times. Room was fairly basic - no tv. Car park is down the street. Staff were friendly. Breakfast provided was good

Rooms are outdated, no TV in room. The view is spectacular overlooking the countryside! Ask for more pillows but overall convenient to town and restaurants.

It's a dated hotel. Room was not very clean and we can see dust everywhere. Hotel did not provide any toiletries. Pictures are misleading. Expedia pictures shows a pool, however there are no pools in this hotel. Also, rooms are not as nice as in these pictures.

Disliked: Amenities
The drawbacks of this hotel have been well documented in other reviews. It is not the kind of place where you would want to spend a week, being quite Spartan, but if , like me, you want a cheap place for a good nights sleep it is perfectly adequate. Easily walkable from the airport along a flat tarmaced path, so save yourself the taxi fare.

We arrived at the property late but check-in was easy. The room and beds were good but the bathroom and especially the shower were very small and the water smelled of sulphur. Overall was OK.

It was close to market area few minutes away. Plenty of parking lots were avaliable. Property was average clean. I think the nightly rate was hiked due to snow storm & hurricane conditions. All roads for going out of town were closed due to severe weather conditions & people were in the town.
