Ottima esperienza
Pros:

Ottima struttura, perfetta come posizione per chi viaggia in macchina lungo la 1. Camere pulite, spaziose e silenziosissime, letti comodi e bagno perfetto. Abbiamo approfittato anche della cena nel loro ristorante e abbiamo mangiato bene. Colazione buona.

Cons:

Tutto bene

Guter Ausgangspunkt für Touren nach Landmannalaugar
Pros:

Lage direkt an der Ringroad. Für uns äußerst gut gelegen, da wir ab der nahen Bushaltestelle eine Tour gebucht hatten. Tagsüber war entsprechender Durchgangsverkehr, aber nachts war es komplett ruhig. Zimmer und Bad waren sehr großzügig, gute Betten, coffee and tea facilities, kleiner Kühlschrank. Wir haben abends zweimal im Restaurant gegessen und waren sehr zufrieden. Auch das Frühstück war gut.

Pros:

Estaba correcto, la habitación era algo pequeña pero era lo que habiamos pagado ya que iba a ser solo una noche de paso.

El pueblo esta bien, tiene varios restaurantes y tiene cerca varias cosas turísticas para ver.

Cons:

La nevera hacia un poco de ruido lo único a mejorar.

Pros:

Hotel molto comodo sulla ring road, personale gentile, ottima colazione con uova e bacon super, anche la cena è stata buona ed economica rispetto ad altri posti. Consigliato

Cons:

La camera era un po' piccola, difficile muoversi in due con valigie. L'oscuramento della stanza non ottimale essendo giugno e sempre luce

Pros:

Όλα καλά. Καλός ύπνος, ζεστό νερό, ωραίο πρωινό.
Τα πάντα είναι ακριβά στην Ισλανδία επομένως για τα δεδομένα της χώρας η σχέση ποοτητας και τιμής ήταν καλή
