Неплохой отель в скучном месте
Pros:

Отель довольно скромный, стоит на берегу залива, ужин высокого уровня. Рядом детская площадка с тарзанкой. Завтрак скромный

Cons:

В номерах нет вентиляции очень маленькое окно, если его открыт прекрасно слышно все соседей с открытыми окнами. Делать тут абсолютно нечего и останавливаться незачем, лучше через час приехать в Боргарнес

Schöne Lage
Pros:

Die Lage ist schön etwas erhöht über dem Ort. Und der große Parkplatz vor der Tür ist sehr praktisch. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber. Und das Frühstück war sehr reichhaltig und hat super gut geschmeckt

Cons:

Unser Zimmer entsprach nicht den Bildern . Wir hatten gedacht , wir bekommen ein solches Zimmer. Aber es gibt wohl noch alte Zimmer und die sind wirklich sehr alt und in die Jahre gekommen. Da haben wir uns nicht so wohl gefühlt.

The accommodation is fine, but restaurant and location made it a brilliant stay.
Pros:

Restaurant was excellent. Location is superb. Loved the area/views.

Rooms and bathrooms are fairly basic with a 70's vibe.

Für den Preis war das Zimmer viel zu teuer
Pros:

Das Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit

Cons:

Die Zimmer der schlechtesten Kategorie sind alt und sehr renovierungsbedürftig. Nicht auf die Fotos mit den schicken neuen Zimmern reinfallen. Das Bad war furchtbar.
Das Frühstück war ok , mehr nicht. Deutlich schlechtere Auswahl als im vorherigen Fosshotel

Nice Hotel
Pros:

The location and view were phenomenal. Just a lovely little town. Breakfast was good and included in room rate.

Cons:

Not even a mini fridge. I, like many other guests I'm sure, have medication that needs to be kept in a fridge. I had to leave it at the front desk and they kept it in theirs. Beds were hard but this is more an Iceland thing than this particular hotel. I had been to Iceland before and knew of this issue so I just packed a king sized top sheet and a lite blanket and slept on top of their comforter. Problem solved.

The prefect place to experience Iceland fishing village life.
Pros:

Super comfortable and great location in a small town. Beautiful view right next to the town aquatic center, grocery store, and a short walk to the waterfront.
