The cabinet above the tiny sink was in the way and can be hazardous to bump someone’s head. And it is hard to use the sink to brush teeth/wash face. It is highly recommended to move the cabinet to the right to make space. It is ok to install the mirror by itself above the sink. This property is basically a simple motel with small room. It seems clean but the drainage emits smell when taking shower. The continental breakfast was adequate with some variety. The seating faux leather was pealing though. The sister hotel nearby looks better and someone was in the service desk and he was very friendly. They may help you if you need something even for this location. I was told they added this dated property when it was for sale. Both hotels are close to one big waterfall. Another one is nearby. This beautiful waterfall is closer to the museum on the side of the cafe.

This hotel was a great spot to stay when travelling through Iceland’s south coast. At the base of Skógafoss, the hotel has small but functional rooms, and an amazing complimentary breakfast. The hot tub had great views of the surrounding area, while still being private. Parking was conveniently located right outside the hotel. A note to any travellers, there is no fridge here.

Nice, clean hotel driving distance to sightseeing opportunities. Included breakfast was great and a real money saver, as a breakfast like that would be about $30 USD in Iceland at a restaurant. Wish the room had a mini fridge, as we traveled with snacks and drinks due to the cost of eating out in Iceland so that was a let down as other hotels we stayed at provided this amenity. Beds were a little stiff, particularly the twin bed in the room. This is a contactless hotel, you're provided a code to get into the building and your room so no staff onsite for assistance. The breakfast attendant was nice and had the breakfast buffet set up punctually. Very close to the waterfall, beautiful mountain views from our room, and the hot tub was nice.

The staff was friendly. We arrived late (but before midnight). I dislike self-service hotels I've never gotten my room without an issue and this was no different. My information was sent to my friend's email but they did not include the code to my door. The phone number we called was not answered. Thankfully a second phone number (located in my friend's room) was found and we were able to get the missing code. The staff was attentive and breakfast was included.

The self check in was very easy. Everything was very clean and neat. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was the best we had during our stay in Iceland. Everything was hot and delicious. We loved that they had a self-serve coffee machine with lots of options for different hot drinks. The exterior of the hotel could use a refresh. I would advise not to “judge a book by its cover.” We definitely were not impressed by the front of the hotel but were very pleased with our stay overall. It’s a very convenient location for seeing the waterfalls and doing other glacier activities. We had a lovely dinner in the restaurant at their sister hotel, Hotel Skogafoss.
