Staðsetningin var góð, starfsfólk frábært, allt mjög þægilegt og snyrtilegt, morgunmaturinn alveg frábær, vorum 2 nætur og næst þegar við förum á Akureyri er þetta okkar dvalarlarstaður,.

Pros:

Staff were efficient friendly and very helpful. We really enjoyed the extensive breakfast and the attention to detail in the dining room. Kudos on actually using real whipped cream for the waffles.

Cons:

The room is standard, and it did feel a little tight.
