Comfy hotel but poor WiFi
"Comfy clean room. Nice food in the restaurant although expensive, even for Iceland. WiFi very poor or non existent in both rooms and bar/restaurant area, not great when you are trying to plan the next fees days on a road trip."

"The property was clean and quiet. Beautiful surroundings with easy access to the road. It has a few restaurants close by with the delicious food. There is some construction going on around the apartment ( we stayed in mid June 2025). We were not bothered by noise though."
