Liked: Cleanliness
The property was currently under construction. It seems that they are adding more rooms. So, there was some pounding and construction noises going on. The stay was pretty nice. Comparable to the accommodations we experienced around most of Iceland. I wish they would've informed us about the construction before we showed up, but they did not.

Comfy beds, free breakfast

We were so exhausted, we all fell into the most comfortable beds and slept. The place was a bit dated but none of that mattered as everything was clean and wonderful. The only drawback is that the free breakfast came with spoiled milk and got all of us sick from drinking it.

Great little hotel room with my breakfast buffet.

This was a great place to stay while we were chasing waterfalls and going to the Lava Center. Nothing fancy but quiet, clean, and comfortable, with an attached restaurant that was very convenient.

Nice stay and clean

The hotel was great and clean. Easy to find, rooms were clean and spacious, and bathrooms were clean and looked new/remodeled. Breakfast was nothing fancy but a nice option considering prices for eating out. I would recommend this hotel and stay again!

Enjoyed our stay. The free breakfast was good. It was a little difficult finding the hotel entrance despite using Apple maps as the sign was not obvious and the map directed us to turn behind the building onto a different street.

This property was well located for our road trip around Iceland with it being just off the ring road. We received a warm welcome in reception and we were very happy with the comfort and high standard of furnishings of our room. Our outlook was over local houses so we had a very quiet night’s sleep. We ate dinner in the adjoining restaurant for convenience and were happy with our choice, I had the fish and shrimp in sauce. Breakfast was the usual buffet arrangement but had more tasty choices than in other places we have experienced on our trip.

The hotel appears relatively recently refurbished inside. Bathrooms and bedroom was clean. Surprisingly, the only real issue we had was that the room was too hot. There was a way to get the floor heat down enough to avoid making the room too warm and you can only open the windows a little bit. The staff to their credit was responsive and provided a fan, greatly appreciated The connected restaurant had good and reasonably priced food.

The staff were very friendly. The hotel was a bit dated but it was comfortable and clean. In addition, renovations are underway. Bonus points for the heated bathroom floors. The breakfast was the stand out with eggs and bacon in addition to lunch meats. Worth the price for the value.

At first it was skeptical because the property is under construction. It seems they are adding a few rooms and possibly an elevator. The room was spacious and comfortable. It’s in the middle of a small town with a craft store a short walk away. There is a river walk and a cafe also within walking distance. The breakfast was good and would have probably cost $50 (for two people )if you had to pay for it somewhere else. The key system lets you conveniently leave the hotel and reenter should you try to catch the northern lights in the middle of the night.

Right on the Ring Road, this hotel was a convenient stop for the night, with an excellent, hot breakfast. The room was spacious, and though the facility was a dated, the restaurant area had a rustic charm that we loved.
