Super Hotel für Reykjavik
Pros:

Super Lage, waren zum Start und Ende unserer Island Runde hier - dafür eignet sich das Hotel bestens. Self Checkin funktioniert tadellos.

Cons:

Ein paar Jackenhaken oder eine Gardarobe wäre nett.

Convenient close to centre, clean, organised and comfortable stay.
Pros:

We liked the clean room, the bed was comfortable and good size TV. We liked the easy way in and out with code, no need for key and having to remember key etc. We managed to park our rental car outside to left of the hotel.

Cons:

It was a bit strange not having anyone at front desk but we managed. The toilet roll holder was too close to the toilet and kept digging into my arm. This should be moved to avoid accidents. The shower doors were weird. Better if it was just the one door that opens and closed. I did love the actual shower though very good. The breakfast buffet was not the best. We had to keep asking for nice fresh bread instead of it just being topped up. The choice was okay but would be good to have more warm food like bacon etc. Boiled eggs were good and coffee.

Prima!
Pros:

We zijn er maar kort geweest omdat we sochtends een ochtendvlucht hadden en dus vroeg weg moesten.

Standaard kamer: erg klein, maar voor een nachtje meer dan genoeg. Er hing een flatscreen TV ter grootte van de muur, maar we hadden geen kapstok voor onze dikke winterjassen ahaha.

Het was hygiënisch en personeel was ook erg vriendelijk dus helemaal prima.

Cons:

Vonden het lastig om een parkeerplaats te vinden

Góð herbergi sem erfitt var að nota þar sem lunginn úr dvölinni snérist um að finna bílastæði
Pros:

Sniðugt að hafa innangengt á Pottinn og pönnuna. Lyfta, hreinlegt, góð rúm

Cons:

Bölvað bras að bóka herbergi, og ekki mögulegt nema fyrir enskumælandi fólk og tölvukunnandi. Aðeins örfá bílastæði sem slegist var um
