Not at ALL as pictured - would have paid $50usd versus $200usd per night for a hotel of this caliber
Pros:

Location was decent

Cons:

Room was oddly shaped, cracks in wall, toilet seat kept popping off, overly strong fragrance hiding stale scent of the room, no air movement, felt like a dorm room not a hotel. Cheap bedding, gunk on sheets, sad excuse for curtains. Front desk not manned.

Pros:

Morgunmaturinn var frábær. Kom ánægjulega á óvart.

Cons:

Komin tími á nokkrar endurbætur en hreinlæti vegur það upp.

Pros:

Morgunverður var mjög góður en annað verra

Cons:

Mér finnst lítil reisn í því að vera með mannlaust hús kl 16 30 þurfa að hringja í símann og þar svarar bara enskumælandi og gefur upp koda til að komast inn í húsið mér finnst lágmarkið að þarna svari íslenskumælandi manneskja, þá var sjónvarp í herbergi óvirkt ,þarna höfum við gist oft áður og fer versnandi.

Pros:

Starfsfólkið kom vel fyrir og morgunmaturinn góður . En hótelið sjálft orðið verulega þreytt .

Cons:

Það var megn fúkkalykt í herberginu og það þarfnaðist verulega mikilla lagfæringa til að það geti talist gott að vera í því . Þar sem ég var bara eina nótt þá gerði ég ekki mál úr þessu . En ég mundi ekki gista þarna aftur við þessar aðstæður .
