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.

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.

Lovely large room with comfortable beds and a great shower. Parking was a bit difficult to find. The rooms aren't sound proof as we could hear the neighbours running down the hall way and talking in the early hours of the morning. A bit disappointed there was no kettle in the room either.

It was just what I needed for a short, one night stay. It is a basic room with a nice size TV close to restaurants and walks along the water. Self check in was nice and smooth. There isn’t a closet or fridge so it wouldn’t be a long term rental but, for one night it was great.
