Reviews
Stayed two separate nights. One night in the front of the hotel and one in the extension. The only issue we had was the room in the extension didn't have temperature control and it was quite warm.
Breakfast is included. It has the normal Icelandic items, plus fresh waffles!
Location is easy to find and near restaurants and various attractions.
Breakfast is simple but save us the trouble of finding food elsewhere as there are not many selections for breakfast.
Plenty of parking spots
