The staff was friendly and very helpful! Our room was comfortable and clean. The lobby was very kitschy and cute. The hotel was located in the perfect location close to lots of shops, bars and restaurants. Parking in this area is challenging and expensive but that is the only downfall. I'd recommend this hotel to friends!

The decor is rather eclectic, but our room was spacious and clean, which was appreciated after many cramped rooms around Iceland. The staff were especially nice and friendly, so shoutout there. The location is also very central, although be careful not to confuse this hotel with the Central Hotels, which are different (but nearby). Thanks to the staff and great location, I'd definitely stay here again.
