"The hotel is very nice; clean, good food and drink options, and positioned well with it not being directly in the city center but a short walk to town. You can walk through a beautiful park to get into town, which was also nice. There is a grocery store behind the hotel as well as the mall area/grocery about a 5 minute walk away. I did not get a chance to take a bus but the free, red buses have a stop right in front. I would definitely stay here again."
"Was a last minute booking after my flight was canceled. Great staff all around. Modern room and amenities. The free wine happy hour is a great addition. Was able to meet new people also visiting the Faroe Islands. Would stay here again"
