The check in at the main area was very easy. The room was spacious and homey. The bathroom floors were heated and the shower was amazing. We really liked the small feel of the hotel. Breakfast wasn’t included but was reasonably priced and delicious!

Loved this place

Located in an old renovated building. Loved the character of the place and the way that the hotel was different buildings scattered throughout the town. Room was clean and spacious with a good size bathroom.

Calm, clean and spacious

We realized we'll be late for physical check-in and were very worried but the nice worker at the desk calmed us down and instructed us on how to self check-in, which allowed us to continue the trip with more ease. The only thing we would recommend doing is adding sun-blocking curtains, since it woke us up at 5 am..

Doors slam shut and you can hear every conversation if guests decide to talk in the hallway or foyer. Hard to sleep due to these reasons. Rooms are cute and clean and the location is great but if you are not a sound sleeper, probably not the best choice.

We booked this property that was called a hotel. Had 10/10 ratings in reviews. It is not a hotel. We are in an outer building with thin walls. Can hear person stomping above us since 4:30 am. Nowhere to sit other than uncomfortably chair in dark room ( spouse sleeping). No amenities. No tv, furniture, towel rack, tp holder, kleenex. Just 4 walls, bnd adjacent bathroom and wardrobe. Would never have booked stay in this town but for glowing reviews on Expedia. Don't stay here!

We enjoyed this hotel and the area. Self check in as this property is one of three and there’s a central office. Hotel was clean. Breakfast was not included but was available at the main hotel of this brand (one brand, 3 hotel houses). Breakfast was pretty expensive relative to other Iceland hotels. We would stay at this property again.

We had a great stay here! The room was recently refurbished and was really nice. Check-in and out was really easy (self service) and we had an amazing dinner and fantastic breakfast in the restaurant (a separate building to the rooms). The staff at dinner and breakfast were efficient and friendly too. It’s located in a cute little village with stunning scenery. Would recommend a night or two here!

Only location is good. Rented a two bedroom with 3 beds. there is no 2nd bedroom. just a portion of attic only for a two beds. No one can sleep in that bed because there is an uncovered sky light just within 2 fts of the bed. no elevator.
