The property was in a good location. It wasn't too far from town. We were able to store our luggage with no issues after a very early flight into Reykjavik. My code wasn't working at first, but it was simple to contact the hotel and resolution was immediate. The only complaint is there was no a/c unit (which I know it normal in Europe)... however, the room was VERY warm when we arrived. We were able to open the window which fixed that issue but it wouldn't stay propped open so we had to rig it a bit. Overall, it was an easy process & we would stay here again!

I loved staying here! This was very quiet and the other guests were always so nice. I really enjoyed the electronic self check in and not having a key to the door. It was very affordable and clean. Great experience!!

The room had no air conditioning but a huge glass window that allowed the sun to bake the room; temperatures in the room in tolerable. Also - reservation was made for the same day occupation; was told I would be sent an email within a few days. Obviously, since it is a remote check-in – that is not good enough.

A little far from the downtown core but okay with scooters and a bit of a walk. Nice hotel, 1 star removed for conflicting information regarding housekeeping between different communication methods.

The room was ok, very basic but it was clean. There was no kettle provided in the room nor any drinks options in any communal areas.... this was unexpected as it didnt state that a kettle wouldn't be available. After landing at the airport late in the evening, we bought some 'instant noodles' knowing restaurants would be close at that time, so it was very frustrating to get to our room and find no amenities or way or making a drinknor food. There was also very limited parking outside. With no reception or front desk, you were left with limited information.
