Reviews
The staff were absolutely amazing and very friendly. The manager let us know the northern lights were out, which was perfect because it was the only night in Iceland without cloud cover.
It doesn't feel like a hotel; it's more like a student/worker dormitory. There were no room cards, only room keys.
The room rate was over 2000 yuan, but the facilities were pitifully basic. Even the shower water was barely flowing.
Overall it's not bad. There are not many hotels in the north.
