Location
Finna Hotel is located at Borgabraut 4 in the small town of Holmavik, situated on Iceland's west coast. The hotel offers views overlooking the water, with some rooms providing direct sea views. It is centrally placed in the old part of town, making it easy to walk to local eateries, including the Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft restaurant about 245 meters away with an 8/10 rating. The nearest airport is Isafjordur (IFJ), approximately 81 kilometers from the hotel, which is useful to know if you're arriving by air. The quiet location in a small town means amenities outside the hotel are limited, so having the in-house restaurant and terrace adds convenience for guests.

Reviews
I had booked a room with a double bed and breakfast because I was a little worried that the room with twin beds would be too small, based on the photos I had seen on their website. The room itself was good and very quiet. The bed was super comfortable, the bathroom was okay, and a coffee machine and TV were provided. The high-speed internet, however, was much slower than I expected, with a maximum download speed of 45 \text` Mb/s`.
The breakfast was standard and was prepared just for me, which was far too much food. They also asked if I would like bacon and eggs for the following day. They even offered to prepare a hot chocolate for my outing. On the day of my departure, they asked if I wanted to take a picnic with me.
So, in other words, this hotel surpassed my initial, incorrect impression. Therefore, the price-quality ratio is good.
The coffee is great because there is a Delonghi machine 😀
