"Parking can be challenge. It’s on a gravel lot that you need to walk to from the hotel. Room is not huge but clean and upgraded. Breakfast is good, an excellent variety of selections. This was the first and last hotel we stayed in Iceland, we will definitely come back again!"

"My only complaint with the property was the lack of central air conditioning. You would think that wouldn’t be a problem in Iceland but we were on the 7th floor and it was hot inside our room.
