Pros:

Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and modern. Rooftop bar was nice.

Cons:

The location is tricky. I thought it was closer to main attractions. After doing a day trip, we got off at the Nord Train Station and the walk home was scary. There were many homeless, drug use, and garbage on the streets. Overall, a bad neighborhood. Use Midi Train Station instead.

Goede start van vakantie in IJsland
Pros:

Hotel in het centrum van Reykjavik. Toch erg rustig. Het ontbijt is duur maar zeer uitgebreid en lekker.
Ideaal hotel om aan een rondrit door Ijsland te beginnen.

Cons:

Er is geen parking bij het hotel. De parkeerplaatsen in de buurt op straat zijn betalend en kortdurend parkeren. Het was even omrijden naar een geschikte parkeerplaats.

Don't go here in high season, be prepared to be overcharged
Pros:

very good location

Cons:

It was a perfectly OK hotel, but dramatically overpriced. Very poor breakfast, which cost 40 euros; an espresso was an extra 8 euros.

Pros:

המלון ממוקם במיקום מצוין החדר היה מרווח ונקי.
אהבנו את החלונות הגדולים שהכניסו הרבה אור

Cons:

עם זאת, לא אהבנו את זה שהיה חייב מפתח ענק, הדלתות היו כבדות בכל הקומה וכל כניסה של אורחים לחדרים שומעים את זה בעוצמה שזה היה ממש מטריד, הפריע לישון בלילות ופגע בחוויה ובנוסף ארוחת הבוקר הייתה עלובה, היו חסרים דברים הקפה עלה הון ביחס לזה שמדובר בארוחת בוקר במלון 20 יורו לכוס קפה היה למי שמסוגל לשתות קפה פילטר, השירות בחדר האוכל לא היה אדיב

Bien pero demasiado caro para lo que ofrece
Pros:

Buen desayuno, personal colaborador, ubicación excelente, camas cómodas

Cons:

Ruido nocturno de los respiraderos, como un zumbido continuo y molesto. El hotel necesita un repaso
