Breve soggiorno ad Höfn
Pros:

Colazione con varie proposte dolci e salate, bella la sala

Cons:

La camera. Al momento della prenotazione non era chiaro che la camera si trovasse in una dependance. Camera minuscola tipo motel, finestre ad un metro dalle macchine parcheggiate davanti, pareti inesistenti si sentiva ogni rumore. Bagno piccolo ma confortevole. I clienti devono essere avvisati se le stanze che prenotano non si trovano nella struttura principale. Hotel sovrastimato, costo esagerato.

Pros:

We enjoyed our stay, it's a beautiful area and we loved the historical buildings. The staff was friendly and our room was great! We really enjoyed the breakfast, as there was a lot of options.

Cons:

I was a bit disappointed in not having a small fridge in our room. We traveled far and were making multiple stops, so we like to keep some small snacks in our room when restaurants are closed or just to reduce our travel costs.

Although we enjoyed the breakfast and appreciated the friendly staff, it was a bit irritating that we were being pushed out 10 mins before breakfast was meant to end. I totally understand and respect timelines but this was a little too early and impatient for us.

Pros:

Molt ben ubicat, a poca distància a peu del petit port de Höfn i amb vistes a algunes de les glaceres de la zona. El personal va ser molt amable i l’esmorzar, molt bo. L’hotel no disposa d’ascensor, però ja n’informen prèviament.
