This hotel is very centrally located and was great for us. We did not have a car and were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The hotel is older but very well kept.

Nobody did housekeeping. They cgarged ne $24 per day for breakfast, telling your room did not incluude that, which is very wrong. I had breakfast includrd checkbox sekected, and choosing rooms ot was just bed options. Breakfast was goid but exactly same everyday. Front desk was not helpful upon asking directions and for early chexkin.its at one end of main street and across sun voyager, so location is not central but good. I think its okay, and room and comfort not worth the price they charged.

Well located hotel, comfortable rooms. It was just a quick one night overnight, so I didn't have a chance to use any of the facilities. But the staff were great (Muhammad on front desk especially) in helping to provide information and making transportation arrangements.

Nicer hotel with exceptional customer service. Room was very spacious and we had a two room suite with our children and ourselves. No air conditioning as we expected that in Iceland. They graciously offered us fans because it was warm for us. Beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed having breakfast each morning in the hotel.

This is a fine hotel, but we stayed during major construction and the hotel itself was hard to get around with wheelie suitcases (hallways are not smooth, there are large wooden dividers along the floor at doorways). Also the shower had the worst water pressure I have ever had in a hotel. Breakfast was awesome. We had to pay for parking which seemed a bit weird for a hotel, it is in an area with no free street parking. All in all, this was everyone's least favorite hotel on our two week trip!
