    I stayed at the hotel at four different times this summer and the elevator was broken all the time Not enough toilets and showers for the number of rooms with shared facilities Breakfast staff is unable to clear the tables and refill the food on time - at least two more staff would be necessary

    The hotel is very clean both in the rooms and the common areas The rooms is reasonnably comfortable for a room with shared facilities Location Easy parking Front desk staff Buffet dinner

    No AC in the rooms, basic breakfast really expensive and not worth the money. The hotels seemed to be a college/dormitory outside tourist season? Reception staff nice and helpful though.

    Big rooms, quiet location a little bit outside the city center, still within walking distance

    TV wasn’t working, but we didn’t need it that much so that was fine. There was no working lift (which meant carrying our bags on 3rd floor). The worst thing was the bathroom - toilet seat not clean or just worn out. It had some cracks that were a bit brown. I don’t if that’s just dirty or old. However, it should be replaced ASAP. Also, the shower wasn’t properly clean (glass, shelf where someone obviously held their razor). If you need a hairdryer, you need to ask for it at the reception.

    Location was ok, perfect for our one night stop. The staff was nice and welcoming. Also, shower had normal shelves which was great.

    There was a weird smell in the hallways and entrance. There was a loud noise coming from the drain regularly during the night. Probably something to do with someone using the bathroom in the upper floors.

    Could do with a proper tap or facility to refill water bottles.

    Good location. Friendly and helpful staff - I asked about getting hot water and they gave me a kettle, also extra pillows. At first it didn't seem like there would be enough shared bathroom facilities, but there were never any issues getting to use showers or toilets. Showers were good. The hotel is a student accommodation unit for most of the year and only open as a hotel for 2 1/2 months.

    The organisation is a little bit chaotic... the check-in is able after 2 p.m., but the woman at the reception had to look if our room was ready. Most of the rooms wasn't clean or clean in last moment before the guests arriveled.

    There are very nice people at the reception, the bathroom are very very nice for a shared bathroom with the whole floor. There is a cozy bar near the reception. The hotel is near the center. The rooms are ok for icelandic standarts in this price group.

    Breakfast was ok - mehh. The staff had trouble keeping up with having coffe ready, missing out on bread etc.

    Room was clean, bed was very stif, it was not a comfortable sleep. The staff was very nice. I needed assistance because the curtains were stuck to the sides, the were quick to come and fix it. The location is nice. Short distance to my activities.

    There are no elevators in the older wings of the facility, making it hard for people with limited mobility to get around.

    No-nonsense rooms in a quiet facility.
