Simple clean rooms with private baths only ~20-30 mins to Myvatn sites or Husavik (in other direction). The staff were friendly and helpful providing good suggestions for area hikes. The buffet breakfast was hearty with great variety - plus it was included in the price.

This is a muti-use property, a school most of the year with dormitories used as a hotel when not in session. Room was clean and quiet but lacked in decor. The included breakfast buffet was phenomenal. Staff was informative and friendly.

Small shower with slow draining water. Had a great breakfast with variety options. Blinds are blackout but didn’t fully keep the lights out so recommend an eye mask.

Room was very small, uncomfortable, and had an unpleasant smell. The common area where meals are served has an hospital vibe. Dinner was the worst in our 2-week Iceland trip. Breakfast was good though.
