Pros:

Una struttura in zona strategica, super centrale. Un hotel senza fronzoli ma pulito e con personale disponibile. Abbiamo potuto lasciare in loco i bagagli prima del check-in e dopo il check-out senza costi aggiuntivi, molto comodo.

Top für Partypeople und für den Kurzaufenlhalt
Pros:

Wir hatten nur einen Tag/Nacht Aufenthalt in Reykjavik.
Aufgrund der tollen Lage, mitten in der Altstadt war es für eine Übernachtung ok! Personal war sehr freundlich und das Frühstück gut!

Cons:

Kleines Zimmer (Jugendherberge Style)
Nächtliche Geräuschkulisse!
Definitiv keine 4 Sterne!

Pros:

The location was central and the staff was helpful.

Cons:

I had to walk up two sets of stairs with my heavy suitcase to get to the elevator and reception. The room was basic and clean but for the price of $170 I had expected a bit more luxury.

Great location, clean and pleasant hotel, staff. Old building, not up to disabled accommodation.
Pros:

The location of the hotel was great. The breakfast and early options were very nice -- great quantity and quality of fresh foods for variety of tastes.

Cons:

I did not like the steps and crooked, iron handrail. The handrail should be replaced. The staff were accommodating for the steps. I did not like the walk to the bus stop. I thought vans would pick one up at the hotel (before booking). I have physical limitations with steps.

Location was perfect
Pros:

great location, right on Laugavegur, close to so much fun. I had a single room, perfect for one person. Breakfast was included, so I enjoyed bagels, juice, coffee, and fruit to begin my busy sightseeing days.

Excellent place in Reykjavik
Pros:

The room was nice and well equiped, the staff was really kind and helpful. Location was perfect, near everything you need as a tourist.

Cons:

Breakfast wasn't that good, overall it was quite limited. The coffee was bad, the ham and cheese was not good either. It can be improved
