Rasa the front desk receptionist legitimately saved my life. I was robbed in Iceland and was completely stranded. Rasa helped me any way she could, and I managed to make it back home!! Truly the nicest receptionist I have ever encountered and she went above and beyond to try to help me.

I had a fantastic stay. Great hotel and will definitely visit here again next time. I read a lot of comments beforehand that the personell isn’t service minded or friendly, but I experienced the opposite. They were fantastic. Only small «minus» was the breakfast. Not the best, but not the worst. But I didn’t really mind at all.

Good location, quiet rooms despite busy street. Nice to have a kettle and fridge in the room. I have stayed here before and would again.
The room wasnt as clean as I might have liked, there was a few stray hairs in the bedding (thankfully that was *all* I found when I checked) and the room was quite dusty.
Bathrooms are tiny and have a very strong sulfur smell, takes some time to get cold drinking water.
Staff was helpful and able to grant early check in.

Great little place. Great value. It's on the same street as the Lebowski bar, and only a block away. Great, friendly staff. My ONLY complaint is that the shower was so small. I'm 6' 3" and there was absolutely no way to bend my legs and properly wash my feet as the shower is very cramped.

The check in staff were not friendly at all. All other accommodations were good. Included breakfast wasn’t as good as other hotels in close proximity we stayed at, but was definitely good enough.
