Desperately needs a handyman...

Spartan rooms. No curtain on bathroom window. No blackout curtains. No shelves or place for toiletries. No water trap valve on toilet, so sulphur smell is prevalent. Japanese style tub/handheld showrr wand. Would not be safe to stand and shower, and neighbors have full view as it is. Rooms are tiny.

No staff onsite. To check-in we were given a phone # to call for lobby and room key code access. No one answered the phone. Local Icelander helped because there was another hotel with same owner in the next town and she called them to help us with access code. Others had the same problem. One couple had to sleep in their car because they couldn’t get their access code via phone instructions either.

Camera pulita e spaziosa, bagno un po’ datato ma funzionale. Colazione inclusa e accettabile anche se non eccezionale. Completa mancanza di personale in loco, per ottenere i codici del check in abbiamo dovuto chiamare molte volte prima di trovare qualcuno disponibile. Nel complesso per un buon hotel

There was no staff on hand. Check in was done via phone call and door codes were provided. No breakfast was included although part of the price. I believe this may have been a last minute change due to COVID

Lukket hotell helt uten service

Hotellet er ubetjent. Det fremgikk ikke tydelig av annonsen på Hotels.com To dager før reisen ringte jeg og ba om opplysninger om innsjekking. Jeg fikk vite at vi måtte være på stedet før kl 23 og at vi skulle ringe fra en telefon ved inngangen. Da vi kom, ringte vi, men den faste telefonen var det nesten umulig å høre noe i, så jeg brukte min egen i stedet. Verten sa hun hadde sendt en e-post med innsjekkingskonder, men den hadde jeg ikke mottatt. JEg har verken mottatt e.post eller sms. Etter å ha sagat a vi skulle vært der før kl 21, sendte hun en ansatt for å åpne. Han var fra Bulgaria, kunne ikke islandsk, bare noen få ord på engelsk, ellers var han både kjekk og grei. VI hadde fått beskjed om at det var frokostservering mellom 8 og 10, men bulgareren greide å forklare at det ikke var noen frokost pga korona (som selvsagt bare var en dårlig unnskyldning). Det var heller ikke mulig å få frokost noe annet sted i byen. Men en sjappe i nærheten åpnet kl 10, så vi ventet på det, der fikk vi kjøpt brød og pålegg og kom av gårde to timer etter planen. Dusjen var deilig, sengene gode og konforten for øvrig ok. Men konklusjonen er: Styr unna!

Die Rezeption des Hotels ist nicht besetzt. Der „Check-In“ erfolgt telefonisch bei einer sehr unfreundlichen Dame, die einem die Zimmernummer und 4-stelligen Code durchgibt. Damit kommt man dann ins Hotel und ins Zimmer. Im Hotel riecht es überall recht unangenehm. Die Zimmer sind klein, aber grundsätzlich in Ordnung. Das Fenster lässt sich kaum öffnen. Wir hatten mit Frühstück gebucht. Das Frühstück wurde jedoch „aufgrund Corona“ gestrichen. Der wahre Grund dürfte wohl eher der sein, dass wir die einzigen Gäste im Hotel waren. Eine (Teil-)Erstattung seitens des Hotels wird abgelehnt. Definitiv keine Empfehlung wert.

Das Frühstücksbuffet war zwar nett hergerichtet, aber die Auswahl war sehr bescheiden. Wie schon bei einem anderen Hotel der Welcome Gruppe wird nur Toastbrot angeboten. Normales Brot oder Gebäck sucht man vergebens. Die Aufstriche und die Butter werden mit der Kunststoffverpackung am Buffet präsentiert. Schinken und Wurstangebot entsprach nicht unserem Geschmack.

We had a end room with a beautiful window view of Snaefells Glacier and it was comfortable and clean. But there are no service folks on site in the evening. So if you have an issue you must call and hope they can resolve it. We didn't have any issues, just be sure you have your codes to enter the front and the room (you'll need one for each). The breakfast was standard fare of fruit and a few other items, but suited us fine. Location is great!

Bien, si juste de passage

Une soirée de passage. Hôtel qui s'auto gère. Le manage pourrait être mieux fait. Le petit déjeuner vous permettra de couper la faim de la matinée mais sans plus. Une chambre pour 4 a 280e, ça ne valait pas plus.

Very poor communication, we called them 22 times in 1.5 hour. No one answered the phone, it kept saying user busy. We had to actually change our plan and drive to hotel to make sure we will be able to check in. There were no toiletries in the bathroom. Worst hotel experience of our entire trip.

Manglende inngangskode og romnr.

Opplevelsen var veldig bra når vi endelig fikk kontakt med noen som kunne låse oss inn og gi oss et hotellrom. En glipp fra hotell.com, vi fikk aldri mail om kode på inngangsdør og intet tildelt hotellromnr. Måtte vente ute lenge.
