The hotel is well located near to gas station and Mika restaurant which is really good. The hotel is well equipped with all the essentials. The breakfast has plenty of options like scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, cheese, types of bread, multiple coffee tea options and pancakes. We had a great stay and the staff is also friendly!

There was very little interaction with personnel. Check in/out is with a keypad. There was no one at a "front" desk. Strange at first, but in the end, I really liked it. The breakfast was more than adequate but there was a book with information, and a shelf of pamphlets to guide us on our stay. I will stay here again when I return to Iceland and I highly recommend this place. We did not use the hot tubs.

The property is new and nice. Rooms are spacious and clean. The property has a nice hot tub and breakfast was nice. The parking lot filled up at night but we managed to find a spot. Besides a pizza restaurant closeby there are no restaurants you can walk to or drive to in less than 10mns. Don't keep your hopes up to see northern lights from this property, there are hot-houses a 150 yards away that are brightly lit day and night and will make the sky "glow". Some people even mistook them for northern lights, instead they were sodium lights for cucumber plants. A good hotel nonetheless.
