Excellent location when traveling by car. Super easy parking and just beside to Keflavik - Reykjavik highway. Very friendly service and tasty breakfast.
Mika, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was an overall great experience, we like the idea of having one bed per person after a long day of visiting places. We did not have a chance to try your complimentary breakfast so cannot comment on food.

Great location and hotel if you have a car

Great location if you are driving, near the main road and with free parking. Good service and a nice hotel. The shower at the hotel is very good. The breakfast is free and a plus, but not with the best selection.
Jonas, 3-night trip

Clean and nice hotel.

Nice and clean. Just missing blackout curtains and hand sanitizer at breakfast – then I would have given top marks.

6/10 Good

Check in time is late, spacious quadroom

Good value but check in time is really late at 4pm. We didn't know about that (our fault as stated in the booking site but didn't pay attention to it). Arrived at the hotel close to 3pm (which is the check in time for almost everywhere else in Iceland) but was told the room is not ready. So we waited at the lounge and even close to 4pm, it was still not ready. The receptionist had to go to the room to check. Then it was ready. Not sure if this is a case of the cleaners not updating the system about the readiness of the room or they are really cleaning it up till the very last minute. Otherwise, room is decent and spacious. Breakfast is fairly standard.
