“Pretty good, would stay again.”
Very comfy bed. Very convenient location. Good parking. Blinds were pretty good, so the room was quite dark. Nice to have a kitchen.

“Overall nice place to stay”
Clean, modern interior. Dedicated car park. Good location. Easy key collection, just remember to go to the hotel first (and not the rear building door).

Based on some reviews I wasn’t expecting much. The place was great. Expensive, but fair for Icelandic prices. Everything clean and a comfortable space. Bedroom a bit tight but fine. A toaster would have been great addition.

“Privileged to be there”
I really liked that there was a communal area downstairs too with coffee making facilities. We also rescued a puffling in the car park

“Value for money. Worth every krona.”
The building seems newly built/renovated, very clean. The facilities were great. The kitchen was well equipped and the laundry was a value add. Free detergent was a nice touch too. The extra supply of Paper towels and other bathroom essentials was a good surprise as well. Very unexpected in a good way.

“Thoroughly recommend staying here and dining at Naes restaurant in town near the docks.”
Fully functional kitchen. Close to town. Helpful staff. Great communal room with coffee machine and microwave. Lovely to have separate rooms with a dining table and lounge. Slept well in the comfortable bed.
