Pros:

Hôtel très propre et bien entretenu. Personnel sympathique, accueillant et agréable.

Cons:

Chambre très petite. L’environnement extérieur est particulièrement bruyant, notamment en raison d’un dépôt situé juste en face, ce qui rend le séjour moins agréable (chambre donnant sur l’arrière de l’hôtel).

Pros:

The staff was lovely and helpful with suggestions about the local area, as it was our first trip to Reykjavik. The hotel was a short walk to the town center. The bed was so comfortable as well. We ended up coming back for our last night before heading home because we had an enjoyed the hotel so much.

Cons:

Nothing.
