Pros:

Small shower with slow draining water. Had a great breakfast with variety options. Blinds are blackout but didn’t fully keep the lights out so recommend an eye mask.

Wir würden nicht mehr dort buchen
Pros:

Kein Ambiente, kein schönes Hotel. Es ist ursprünglich ein Internat. Restaurantausstattung wie in einer Kantine. Hat uns gar nicht gefallen und wir sind anderswo essen gegangen. Frühstücksbuffet gut, aber man musste sogar alles selber abräumen. Ich finde das geht gar nicht, wenn man ein Hotel bucht! Für diesen Service ist das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis katastrophal.

Pros:

The hotel is a summer hotel, and looks like it is used for dormitory purposes. The rooms are very basic, but are serviceable.

We found the beds quite uncomfortable, with extremely thin pillows. The curtains did not block out the light of the long daylight hours, so the room was quite bright when trying to sleep.
There was a frequent banging sound that vibrated through the building. We think it was the main door, which was banging shut, as people entered and left the building. It made getting enough sleep quite challenging, as the noise and vibrations were occurring until quite late, and started again fairly early in the morning.

The breakfast was good, with some hot options, as well as the usual continental breakfast offerings.

The staff were very helpful and pleasant.

Pros:

Simple clean rooms with private baths only ~20-30 mins to Myvatn sites or Husavik (in other direction). The staff were friendly and helpful providing good suggestions for area hikes. The buffet breakfast was hearty with great variety - plus it was included in the price.

The property is between Mývatn lake and Goðafoss waterfall. The campus is a boarding school campus used for hotel in summer. It is a clean hotel.

Pros:

This is a muti-use property, a school most of the year with dormitories used as a hotel when not in session. Room was clean and quiet but lacked in decor. The included breakfast buffet was phenomenal. Staff was informative and friendly.

Pros:

This was a nice, clean property. During the school year, the room we were in is a dorm room. It was equipped with everything you would expect in a hotel. We had three beds in our room. Two were pulled together to make a "king" size bed, but it is a "king" with a gap down the center. The breakfast was good and included some hot stuff like eggs/bacon/sausage/cereal/yogurts/toast. There is a public pool next door that is associated with this property that you can get a discount to. The only complaint is that it is a fairly large property so there was a tour bus there and breakfast was a bit of a zoo.
