The outside of the property appeared to be undergoing construction, ie ladders, etc were around the property. However, we never saw any workmen. The inside of the property was exactly as pictured and was fine for a stay of a few days. It was very clean and quiet.

Convenient and clean
We selected this property because it had kitchenettes, allowing us to reduce some of the high cost of food in Iceland. The hotel was a little dated but clean. Beds were very comfortable. We used the heated tile floor to help dry out some of our wet clothes when we got caught in the rain. If it got too warm in the room we just opened a window which they actually encouraged. Door locks were a little tricky but also seemed to add extra security. The hotel location is close to amenities and a good starting off point to see quite a few sights.

Affordable hotel near the golden circle. Our rooms were nice, but one had a strong chemical smell and the other had a constant stinky bathroom - this was different than the usual sulfur smell from the hot water. Something seemed wrong with the venting. The rooms had nice geothermal heated floors. It was walking distance to a few restaurants and grocery stores.

Dear Thank you so much for your stay and taking the time to review the Hotel. I'm sorry something was wrong with the venting in the first room you got. You did the right thing by letting our staff know about it and get a new room. The chemical smell is because the second room had just been cleaned. I am glad you liked the location and the kosy floor heating! We really appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again :) Best regards

Friendly staffs
Happy stay, for me is the best hotel style i've ever experience. It's not about luxury, Im talking about real living, It's show as hotel but you feel like home as service apartment or even better, the room is so big for stay in the room than go out. There is separate part kitchen and living room which as you can cook. Staffs are really helpful and give nice information.

Broken shower=Fun at local swimming pool
Shower in room was broken so we weee offered he room for free which was very generous and unexpected. We headed to the local swimming pool just around the corner the next morning where we were warmly welcomed. Instead of just using their facilities to shower, we rented, yes rented, swimsuits and spent a lovely morning in the warm outdoor pools with snow all around. What a treat!
