The hotel is part of a 8-9 different apartment/hotels in the area. The check-in hotel was different hotel to the one we actually stayed. There was email communications before we arrived informing the check-in process (however we didn't read the details) hence we still went to the check-in counter and bypassed the 'quick check-in' option available. Totally our own fault. The room was exactly per the photos, very clean and warm. We loved the balcony which was super neat. The double bathrooms (for the 2 bedroom apt) we stayed was the winner as most 2 bedroom apartments we stayed in Iceland only have 1 bathroom. Would highly recommend this place for anyone interested.

The balcony offered views of the ocean. It was within walking distance of restaurants, stores & bus stops. I opted for the breakfast. It was delivered to my suite & put in the refrigerator the afternoon before. Plus, fresh baked sourdough bread was delivered every morning. The staff was excellent.
