Storm Hotel by Keahotels
Warm and clean room. Breakfast was very good. The bus stop for excursions is just in front of the hotel, which is very convenient as it rains a lot!

Sif Apartments by Heimaleiga
The apartment was great! Within walking distance of all the shopping and food options. Very modern decor and comfortable beds. The only complaint was the microwave was situated above the refrigerator way out of reach.
