Thorkotlustadir Vacations

Location is great. But they had bugs in the room, a lot. My kids didn’t sleep all night because of bugs. Also some spiders in the room. I don’t think they are cleaned well. We stayed 10 nights in Iceland in different hotels but only this hotel had this bug issue.

We enjoyed our junior suite, very practical having a bedroom with twin beds and sofa bed in main hall. Very spacious, great to have balcony! Their breakfast was excellent served promptly and delicious fresh bread from bakery. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend staying with them.

It was a score to find a four bedroom apartment by the harbor, right by so many great shops, restaurants and attractions with parking on the street! You of course pay for these conveniences and location in the rental price. The things we loved : • walking convenience • plenty of beds • a drop zone or “mud room” • a usable kitchen • free wifi • separate toilet from shower room • the exposed stone on the walls was beautiful The things that we didn’t care for: • the place was a SAUNA! we did not sleep because it was SO HOT. we had all of the registers off, windows open but there was no way to turn off the in-floor heating. • exposes insulation and missing wall board above the electric box • fine dust all over the floors in the restroom from the exposed stone • there is no living room or couch or armchairs. Your place to be together is in the kitchen around a table with very hard benches. Would we stay here again? NO. we got the apartment so that we would have a place to sleep. We could not sleep because of the extreme heat. ( and we stayed on a very cool day summer where it rained the entire time)

The outside door keypad was terrible. We had to use the call system to get in which took sometime. I would not have booked there if I had known there was no on-site host/desk. I did like the convenient location and the on-site free parking.

Great little hotel, with lovely staff, who gave us our room, shortly after noon, even though check in at 4 pm, and even brought all our luggage into our room. The breakfast was fine for a small place.
