Pros +
- Price, the size of the room, bathroom, and bed
- The rooms were clean. Very nice linens and soft towels. Easy walk to the center of town. We were able to store out luggage before our checkin time.
- Location
Cons -
- It was a bit far from the city center.
- I did not expect no staff on site. I had to phone the number on the locked doors to get a code to enter the Hotel Of course it was raining at the time. And without staff, I couldn't get them also to help order a taxi or recommend a restaurant.
- My room, in particular, had nowhere to store or hang clothing. We made it work, but thought it was odd . Also, there was not a single person on staff to speak to except the girls that were cleaning the rooms. Beware, there is no front desk !

Location
No staff, no reception. As foreigners we needed help with suggestions and were very disappointed no one was available. We could not get into our room because our key code did not work. Very small room. No coffee available.
The bed was so saggy. No parking at all and a car is necessary to reach it.
10/13/2020-10/16/2023: This hotel is within walking distance to groceries, restaurants, shopping stores, and the "Rainbow" street. On our last day at this hotel, Anh, the concierge is so helpful and personable! Would definitely stay here again!
Although it was further away from the town center than I thought, it was an easy walk. Most staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious.
Only restaurants nearby were upscale (reservations needed) and a Vegan Only which was surprisingly fabulous! Only 5-10 minutes walk offers many varied options, though.
comfy beds and nice shower. Girl at front desk was very nice.
It was a little far from the nightlife area of town.
The bead was very nice and it was a clean hotel
The room was beyond small and looked nothing like the pictures made it to be on the website. The location is not great either. It is quite a hike to Hallgrimskirska or the main shopping street like they advertise. It was way overpriced too!
Easy check in and check out
Bathroom could be slightly bigger
Really appreciated the staff. They all are very professional very helpful with great customer service. Please reward and recognize them for their efforts which Was well beyond expectations. The location is great too! Thank you. We will be back!!!
