Tired hotel. Matress is sagging and needs replacement. Shower tray damaged and tiny, so difficult to shower normally without the shower curtain not sticking to you.... yes a shower curtain, no basic enclosure. Expensive for what it is.

This property is alright for a quick 1 or 2 night stay. It seems like an older building that has no special features. The bathroom is quite small and the shower is tiny (If you are any more than 5.5 you will be cramped!). However, the beds are comfortable and the room felt safe and secure. The staff are very friendly, helpful and professional. The breakfast buffet is very good, with lots of options (keep in mind, the breakfast is an extra charge). Also only a block or two from several restaurant options.

The hotel was clean with basic amenities. It was good value for the price in Iceland. Check in and check out was easy. They had onsite parking which we found a bit confusing to use as it is a third party operator. The buffet breakfast was amazing definitely worth adding onto your trip given the cost of food in Iceland.

The desk staff were fantastic, consistently friendly and helpful. The mattress was a little too firm for my tastes - I like them fairly firm, but not that much. There was a good number of pillows, of different thickness and firmness. There was hair clogged in the shower drain when I arrived, leading the tray to drain slowly and fill with water. There is a small kettle in the room, but the sink is very shallow and the kettle won't fit in it - the only way to get water into the kettle was to fill a glass with water and then pour that into the kettle several times over.

Bed and room were comfortable. Shower was terrible - very small and curtain clung to you the entire shower. Staff was very friendly. I was able to store my suitcases in the back room before checking in. Reykjavik is very walkable, lots of public transportation. One bad weather day I used the hopp app (like uber). Hotel close to sculpture walk and 15 minutes from the shopping area. Small grocery and atm available behind the hotel.

Ver comfortable room and bed. Very cozy. I would have liked a small chair, and the drapes were not aligned correctly. Maybe blackout drapes would be better.

It is a very convenient location, but the hotel room itself was dated. No furniture or decor to make the room more comfortable, such as a TV that allows chromecast or streaming, place to sit and put shoes on/off, or even a small sofa or couch to sit on. There are empty spaces around the room that could use decor/furniture to make it more comfortable. The rug is the worst part of the hotel room. It is dirty and looks like it hasn’t been replaced since the 1970s. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were soft, so ultimately not a bad hotel. Service was exceptional, breakfast buffet was great and consistent.
