Nice and easy place to stay, good food, large rooms.
Pros:

Location was good, just a simple place to stay along the Ring Road. Everything was easy access, clean, comfortable, breakfast was good as well. Rooms were very spacious. Recommend as a good place to stay.

Cons:

Only complaint was that the room was VERY warm. We were unable to get it to cool off. Windows would not open.

Pros:

Muy simpático todo el personal. La habitación era grande, estaba limpia y el baño tambien. Hay restaurante en el hotel por lo que es muy cómodo para cenar y desayunar. Es muy cómodo porque no tienes ni que salir del hotel para cenar o desayunar

Fajny, przytulny hotel z polską obsługą
Pros:

Pobyt w hotelu podczas olbrzymiego obłożenia hoteli na Islandii z uwagi na zaćmienie słońca. W hotelu jedliśmy dobre śniadania, obsługa była bardzo pomocna (pozdrowienia dla ekipy z Polski), a pokoj miał wszystko co potrzebne. WiFi działało bardzo dobrze. Przed hotelem duży parking, blisko stacja i sklep.

Cons:

Jedynie cena bardzo wysoka jak na taki standard, ale jednak to Islandia i totalny szczyt sezonu.
