Although there aren’t staff present other than housekeeping, the team were very helpful with providing information and also allowing early check-in. The rooms were very clean and spacious, provided hairdryer, toiletries, mini fridge - this was essential for us. Great location - walking distance from the city centre. Would definitely stay here again. Personal preference - would like the option of additional pillows in the room

We were traveling the south coast and started our journey here. The help line was super convenient and we were able to get in touch with someone right away, so the self check in was not a problem even though I didn’t contact them 48 hours ahead for our codes. The free parking was full and the street parking was semi-stressful in terms of knowing for sure if we were going to get a ticket/towed. They told us to park at another hotel that had free parking (full) but we ended up at a spot about a 2 minute walk away. We were slightly off put by the exterior of the building and the abundance of construction in the area but it was incredibly nice inside. It was quiet, we saw people but didn’t hear our neighbors. The room had high ceilings, a gorgeous spacious bathroom, and great natural light/ blackout curtains. Perfect amount of space for our 2 suitcases+bags with surfaces to put them on as well. Another bonus is the grocery store right around the corner. Just plan ahead with parking and call if you have questions but overall would definitely stay again!

The Hotel is wonderful. I prefer a more quiet place to stay when I travel, so I look for a bed further away from downtowns and the hustle and bustle. Since Reykjavik is easy to walk or use the city bus, I had access to everything I needed. I didn't have a car, so I can't comment on parking. The self check-in was simple and straightforward. My room was comfy and clean. The private bathroom was awesome. There are plenty of food spots and groceries nearby, as well as some stores.

The hotel itself was very nice and cozy, the rooms were clean and comfortable. However, the “free parking” is misleading. It is actually street parking nearby, most of which is paid, some of it is free. However it is not clearly marked, some of it is a couple of blocks away, and most of it is full. We came after a long red eye flight and long day with no sleep and had to circle the block for 20 minutes to find parking until we decided to risk it at an unmarked spot. Thankfully it was safe parking and our rental car was still there. I would warn anyone who is booking this location for the “free parking” that it’s not on the premises.

We requested early check in and were allowed in 3 hours early. We requested luggage be stored for later departure than our check out and were allowed to leave bags in secure storage. Flybus and tour pickup at the door was awesome. We will return.

Nice quaint hotel in the city. It’s not the closest to the bustle but only a 15 minute walk. They were great allowing us to check-in early which was much appreciated. Parking was the major hindrance and spent navigating a parking spot. The room was clean, the breakfast is light and a bit nimble for the cost. The price overall was good and if you have questions, they are responsive very quickly.
