Buona nella media
Pros:

Struttura nuova….. letto molto comodo e camera spaziosa con una bella vista sul monte ….. tutti sommato buona nella media

Cons:

La pulizia delle stoviglie deve essere più precisa dato che i piatti erano sporchi questo vuol dire che chi ha fatto le pulizie non ha controllato minimamente…. Stessa cosa il cuscino che era nell’armadio era tirato lì e sgualcito senza essere messo né in un sacchetto e dava l’impressione di essere sporco….. la luce nel bagno con il temporizzatore non si può vedere… mentre stavo facendo la doccia mi si è spenta la luce…. Prima volta che ho visto una cosa del genere ….
Ultima cosa (anche se lo si sapeva) nell’angolo cottura un piano a induzione ci vorrebbe

Perfekt für einen Zwischenstopp.
Pros:

Alls gut. Großes Appartement, perfekt für einen Zwischenstopp.
Ohne Personal. Schlüssel steckt einfach in der Tür. Kommunikation mit dem unsichtbaren Vermieter sehr gut.
Frühstück im Harbour Kaffee sehr nett, aber wie überall in Island völlig überteuert. Daher lieber im nahegelegenen Supermarkt eine Frühstück einkaufen. Achtung: Öffnungszeiten nur 10 - 18 Uhr als wir dort übernachtet haben.

Cons:

Bad ist riesig, aber könnte noch eine Ablage gebrauchen. Unterschrank war noch voller Haare. Das kann man verbessern.
Auch wenn noch Wintersaison ist: der angepriesene Balkon, den man einfach betritt, weil der Blick so schön ist, war eine Müllhalde...! Das muss nicht sein.

Cómodo aunque el baño tiene un problema con la luz
Pros:

La habitación y los servicios son muy cómodos y el lugar está muy bien comunicado.

Cons:

La luz del baño se enciende de forma automática (una luz bastante fuerte), y esto significa que si lo usas en mitad de la noche iluminas toda la habitación lo cual resulta bastante incómodo. Deberían cambiar este sistema de encendido por algo manual.

Favoloso
Pros:

Staff gentile e accogliente, camera pulita solo il terzo letto un po’ piccolo per una quindicenne.
Il cortile interno della struttura ospita due piccole vasche di acqua calda temperatura differente con accesso diretto dalla porta esterna del bagno in camera ottimo per il relax. Posizione ottima per visitare il grande geiser!

Cons:

Nulla

Вернусь еще! Спасибо за гостеприимство.
Pros:

Просторные уютные апартаменты, удобная кровать, парковка, тихий двор, удобное расположение. Есть кухня, большой зал. Заселение в любое время бесконтактное.

Cons:

Все хорошо!
Но если бы был лифт было бы вообще великолепно))) у меня было много вещей, а апартаменты на 2м этаже. Здание двухэтажное без лифта естественно.

A pleasant, well-equipped room for a night’s stopover, but the cooking limitations are worth bearing
Pros:

A cosy and comfortable one-night stop. The room had a lovely balcony (we didn’t get to use it but it looked inviting), streaming facilities which were perfect for unwinding after a long day on the road, and thoughtfully placed plug sockets on both sides of the bed — a small thing that makes a real difference when you’re travelling as a couple.

Cons:

No stove, which is worth knowing if you’re planning to self-cater — most Ring Road travellers cook to keep costs down. There is a microwave but guests are prohibited from heating milk in it, which left me unable to make porridge in the morning. There was also a noisy boiler — particularly noticeable when hot water was running, but it seemed to make noise throughout the night too.

Pros:
