Great stay, excellent breakfast to keep you going for the day.
Pros:

Excellent breakfast. Polite and accommodating staff. Comfortable room. There is a very nice park across the road if you want to go for a walk with all kinds of facilities (swimming pool, skating, gym)

Cons:

Hotel is somewhat further away from the downtown so if you want to explore the area you either need to take a bus (the stop is about block away) or get a cab/ride a scooter. Also, there is no convenience store nearby (nearest is about 15 min walk at least). This was not a big deal for us since we only used this hotel as "book end" days before and after our main trip.

Very inconvenient but okay.
Pros:

Nice Location

Cons:

We understand that air conditioning is uncommon in Iceland, but our seventh-floor room was extremely hot from the afternoon sun. Even with the windows cracked open, the room remained uncomfortable after we returned from exploring downtown.

The hotel was fully booked, but the staff kindly provided a small fan and opened the hallway doors to let cooler air in. We appreciated their efforts, but unfortunately, we had to wait until the sun went down before the room became comfortable.

Pros:

המיקום היה מעולה, ארוחת בוקר טובה

Cons:

אין מקרר בחדר, אנשים שמטיילים באיסלנד במיוחד כשהם מגיעים לרייקיאוויק הם מגיעים עם הרבה ציוד שאגרו במהלך הטיול. בנוסף קיבלנו חדר שכדי להגיע אליו חייב לרדת 5-6 מדרגות וזה לא היה פשוט עם כל המזוודות

Todo en general

Cons:

La habitación era cómoda pero nos pareció algo pequeña
También destacar qué en la ducha había un pequeño soporte e aluminio.de la esquina del interior de la ducha era altamente inapropiado, poco práctico y con riesgo de posibles lesiones en caso d caída o resbalón
