The property was in a good location. It wasn't too far from town. We were able to store our luggage with no issues after a very early flight into Reykjavik. My code wasn't working at first, but it was simple to contact the hotel and resolution was immediate. The only complaint is there was no a/c unit (which I know it normal in Europe)... however, the room was VERY warm when we arrived. We were able to open the window which fixed that issue but it wouldn't stay propped open so we had to rig it a bit. Overall, it was an easy process & we would stay here again!

The room had no air conditioning but a huge glass window that allowed the sun to bake the room; temperatures in the room in tolerable. Also - reservation was made for the same day occupation; was told I would be sent an email within a few days. Obviously, since it is a remote check-in – that is not good enough.

Clean and comfortable room provided excellent accommodation during our four night stay in Iceland. Within walking distance to a great vegan restaurant, a grocery store, and local points of interest. Ideal for travelers like us who booked a number of local tours which offer hotel pick up and drop off from certain hotels.

A little far from the downtown core but okay with scooters and a bit of a walk. Nice hotel, 1 star removed for conflicting information regarding housekeeping between different communication methods.
