The stay did not match the expectations for the price level.
While the location is interesting, the overall experience felt quite basic compared to other hotels in a similar price range in Iceland. The room quality and breakfast were average and did not reflect what one would expect from a hotel at this rate.
The pool is presented as part of the hotel experience, but in practice it is a separate nearby facility with limited opening hours (closing at 20:00 and reopening at 11:00, which coincides with checkout time). This makes it effectively inaccessible for guests staying only one night.
There was also a hygiene concern with the bed sheets, which further impacted the stay.
Overall, the experience felt more like a functional lodge rather than a design-oriented or high-quality hotel, and did not offer good value for the price.
