Lovely hotel on the Ring Road, which was extremely convenient. Room was spacious with a view of mountain in back and neighbor’s house (and greenhouse!). A shop with hand-made items is adjacent by a gas station, which was a fun stop. Breakfast had more options than most others that we experienced, and the elevator was also very convenient.

The rooms are a bit tired. That said, the bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was adequate, and the staff was friendly. Basic accommodations but for one night it was no problem.

When we arrived around 5:00 there was nobody at the front desk. We called a number on their card and a woman answered and said she would come back. She came within 5 minutes. Just as she arrived another woman came out from somewhere to help. It was just odd.

Staff helpful. All basic amenities (even shampoo conditioner and bath gel!) and a hot water kettle. Helpful for us tea drinkers. Restaurant serves good horse and lamb steaks at reasonable price (by Icelandic standard) and a good breakfast spread. Easy to locate just off the round island Hwy 1.
