    Nothing. The hotel met our expectations for comfort, a decent menu for both breakfast and dinner and a good location when visiting the area.

    The staff was very nice and accommodating. They went out of their way to assure we were well taken care of during our stay.

    We stayed in ten Iceland hotels. All were lovely. This room was the smallest and the least value. Also, it was the smallest room.

    The property was lovely in a beautiful location. The views were spectacular and the property was clean with friendly personnel

    The rooms were small and the price was high compared to the other nine hotels we stayed at while traveling the ring road.

    The location is beautiful; nestled between the ocean and mountains. The views were lovely. The community spaces were well decorated and fun to use. The rooms were very clean.

    The single cover on bed. My wife and I were either too hot or too cold. Cover is weighted and if it slips to one side it slides all the way to the floor.

    The location is very good for exploring the peninsula. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

    Comfortable Hotel with Friendly Staff and Great Location

    The hotel is a great location to begin an exploration of Snaefellsnes peninsula. The rooms are a little basic in a block that is of portacabin type construction, however, they are spotlessly clean and comfortable. The bathroom is on the small side but with a good shower. The views from the hotel, to the sea at the front and the glacier topped volcano at the back are beautiful. The hotel staff were all freindly and helpful and dinner in the restaurant was excellent (but be aware that there are not really any cheaper options and there isn't really anywhere else to go). However, the breakfast was included and was really good and set us up well for a busy day of sightseeing. So, all in all, this was a pretty good value stay.

    The room was hot and I couldn’t figure out how to shut. the heat off. And, the feather or down blankets made us HOT. That was the only option for a blanket

    Restaurant was closing a bit early for my standards, so we could not dine with my family as we arrived late.

    It's a really nice hotel and restaurant in the wilderness of the far west Snæfellsnes peninsula. The hotel has a great location for exploring the Snæfellsnes peninsula from west to east as we did with my family after our stay. Breakfast was really good with everything you need for a great start of the day. There are some nice views and walking paths around the hotel for those not feeling sleepy in the arctic day.
