Pleasant stay in Hella
Pros:

The hotel is in a good location, and our room was spacious and comfortable. There's a huge free parking in front of the property. The breakfast was decent, and the staff were lovely throughout our stay, especially the gentleman working at the bar. Nothing was particularly outstanding, but we enjoyed our stay and felt very comfortable there.

Cons:

The hotel is a bit dated, and some areas are worn down and in need of renovation.

Notte a Hella
Pros:

Abbiamo passato una notte in questo hotel durante il nostro viaggio in Islanda. Che bel posto! Lo staff è stato molto accogliente, la camera era molto bella e spaziosa, dotata di un bagno bello e pulito e con una gran finestra che dava sul prato retrostante.. grandi tende per dormire (alle 22.30 c'era ancora luce!) e un ristorante interno in cui abbiamo mangiato il Plokkfiskur! Siamo stati molto soddisfatti della nostra (unica) notte passata qui :)

Cons:

dover andar via
