Pros:

After reading the reviews, we were curious what we would get, as there seems to be 2 divergent types of reviews.
We were housed in the 2nd building in the ground floor (1st), with the breakfast room down below. Decor best described as old age home-ish…functional but not new.
Half the double electrical sockets in the room didn’t work, the bathroom put out a strong unpleasant smell (not sure if it was the toilet sewer gases or the shower drain).
Otherwise the room was comfortable but the walls (and ceiling) are thin, sounded like our upstairs neighbors were rearranging the furniture until past 1030pm. Good shower pressure, but a bath mat would be appreciated as water goes under the glass shower ‘door’ and into the rest of the space.
Breakfast included was a good sized buffet, kept stocked and fresh. Hot dishes include: bacon, eggs, pancakes, sausage, potato cakes, oatmeal) and cold dishes included: assorted breads, pastries, salad ingredients, cottage cheese, jams, etc.
we took a miss on the evening buffet, which was very expensive, even for here.
Resident calico cat makes her presence known occasionally in the main lobby/lounge area. Happy hour prices are really good for Iceland.
Overall a good stay for 2 nights with hiking and nice falls in the area.

Pros:

Nice stay. Beautiful rural setting, very tranquil. Outdoor hot tub was great, breakfast was above average and included in the room price.
The place is a bit outside of the city, so be aware it is not convenient for restaurants and quick store stops.
Overall great experience, would recommend to anyone.

Pros:

We arrived after a long drive from Kirkjubæjarklaustur, checkin was fast and we were given the room immediately. Room was clean and spacious. Being vegetarians, we did not find enough options in the restaurant in the hotel. so we had to drive to Egilsstaðir which is a 20 mins drive from the hotel which had some decent places to eat. Hotel breakfast was good next day morning. Overall, stay was satisfactory and highly recommend.

Pros:

This is my least favourite hotel during our 10 days Iceland trip back in July. The bed mattress is very saggy, and the sheets are old and feeling rough. All of these is fine as we are really staying for just one night. Almost all the hotels in Iceland offer breakfast from 7-10am and we saw guests triggering in even near 10am and.no one has ever rushed us. However, this is the only hotel that was telling us to leave at 10am sharp because they need to “clean” it. And it is the only hotel too that did not offer fancy coffee from the fancy coffee machines in all the other Icelandic hotels we have been to. And they also charge extra if you want fruits. Like what? Not worth the money I paid for at all.
