Categories

Cleanliness
8.8
Multiple reviews explicitly praise the cleanliness and upkeep of the property (e.g. 'propreté de l'établissement', 'مكان נקי ויפה', 'modern gepflegt und sauber'), so cleanliness is rated above average despite isolated concerns about restaurant hygiene reported separately.
Service
9.2
Service is consistently mentioned positively across reviews ('friendly staff', 'very pleasant receptionist', 'Personnel sympathique', 'Staff lovely and very friendly'), justifying a high score.
Location
9.6
Location is a major strength in many reviews: scenic fjord setting, small fishing village charm, central position and ambience (tunnel approach), so location scores very highly.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms are frequently described as spacious, comfortable and modern, but there are repeated remarks about hard pillows, some old furniture, noisy doors and unrenovated bathrooms — overall slightly above average.
Amenities
7.8
Amenities are mixed: attached restaurant and good breakfast praised, but limits noted (shared bathrooms for some rooms, TV room relocated to restaurant, pricey washing machine, limited vegetarian options), leading to a modest score.
Value for Money
8.7
Several guests mention good value for money and reasonable restaurant prices for Iceland; one comment mentions it felt 'actually too expensive' but generally value is positive.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Food gets conflicting feedback: many praise the breakfast and the fish-specialty restaurant as good and affordable, but there is a serious negative report of suspected foodborne illness and other complaints (limited vegetarian options, noisy dining area), so this category is downgraded.
Overall Experience
9.2
Overall impressions are very positive: relaxing, cosy, friendly staff, great location and good breakfast/restaurants nearby. Minor negatives (shared bathrooms, occasional noise, pillow comfort) do not dominate the overall experience.

Pros:

Sitzplätze draussen

Cons:

Die Küche scheint ein Hygieneproblem zu haben. Nach Fischabendessen die ganze Nacht erbrochen und Durchfall. Schlimm.

Super séjour dans ce petit village de pêcheurs !
Pros:

Petit village de pêcheurs très animé, ambiance très sympa. Il semble qu’il s’y passe toujours quelque chose. Le tunnel pour y arriver ajoute à l’ambiance typique.
Chambre spacieuse, moderne et confortable. Le restaurant a un bon rapport qualité prix. Possibilité végétarienne quoique le limitée. Personnel sympathique.
