Breakfast seems simple and reasonable. Also, the location was between the city and airport. There’s a walking distance grocery shopping, which was great.

This hotel was considerably cheaper than similar hotels right around the airport and only about a 20 minute drive from the airport. Parking was easy as it was off of the main road and the rooms were big and the breakfast was good and if you wanted to work out at the Reebok fitness center they had a relationship and you could do that for free. All in all, we were very happy with this choice for an overnight hotel, after arriving in Keflavík.

My cousin and I was not impressed with the property. There was a sound in the middle of the night and we had to sleep in the car for the first two nights till they had a room for us. We got sick by sleeping in the car and now they are not able to refund us the two nights as well. Very upsetting.

The front desk is super helpful. The lovely young lady let us to check in before 11am while we were just trying to drop off our luggages. The location is great for us as our plan for the two days of stay is to go to blue lagoon and the golden cycle, and then catch a morning flight from KEF international airport. The gym is incredible. There is also a supermarket and a Thai restaurant just steps away. This place is kind of in the middle so I will have enough time to drive to all places. They also kindly packed breakfast for us as we were leaving prior to 7am.

This hotel was a great location to travel via rental car in either direction to explore Iceland. The staff was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. They were all willing to help us plan our daily activities based on weather and erupting volcanic activity. The facility was extremely clean. The beds were comfortable and the shower water pressure was amazing!

The hotel is relatively new. The room was large with a sofa, as well as two chairs. Windows could be open to let in fresh air. The views were not great, as this area is in a commercial part of town, but it's convenient to dining options in nearby Hafnarfjordur. We went to Von and had an excellent meal.

Gym was great. Room was clean and well maintained. Hotel and room smelled like plastic or some sort of chemicals. Breakfast was not very good. Nearby restaurant was not very good. Location wasn’t really convenient to anything - 20 mins to Reykjavic. Staff was welcoming and friendly. Still a great value especially if you use the gym.

Middleway between Keflavik and Reykjavik, so walking anywhere is not an option. If not with a car, its going to be a problem. Good breakfast, big room for two people. Everything was correct. Weird smell in the hallway which moved to our room though. Sports bar had nice food aswell.
