Great location
We had 2 rooms in the main part of the hotel. It was minus 5 putside, big dumps of snow and we struggled to be able to close a window. Overall stay was good. Great location, friendly staff, good breakfast (no cooked option), and rooms were a decent size, although both had 2 single beds.

Great location
Great location! The room was quite small- we were visiting Iceland as part of a longer international trip so we had one big suitcase and found it difficult to open it in the room but that really didn’t bother us. It was easy to park across the street and you can walk all around town from the hotel

Good not great but nice!
The stay was fine. This hotels in a great, and very walkable location. The beds, although small, were comfortable and the room was very clean. The bathrooms are tiny! The hot water smell is something to get used to but bearable and honestly not the big of a deal. Waking up to the sound of church bells is quite interesting, felt like it was the town alarm for everyone to wake up for work. Unfortunately, there were renovations taking place below the room which made for very unpleasant wake up drilling and hammering noises. Overall this place was nice, good pricing, and convenient but I wouldn’t stay here again only because I’d like to try other hotel locations that seemed a bit nicer from the outside.
