Room was clean but small. Breakfast just ok. Location a little far from center. I had to check out 1 night early due to massive snow storm in new york, the icelandair offered me to leave the day before to avoid getting stranded in iceland. However after explaining to front desk she said manager wasn't there but he will contact me. I haven't heard from anybody from the hotel, I wasn't expecting a refund but at least a credit. Customer service needs improvement.

Had a very pleasant stay. The room was very clean. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I was to switch rooms to the same floor as my friends. The hotel is perfectly located near attractions, the harbor and grocery stores about a 10 min walk. I would definitely stay here again!

Exeter staff are incredibly warm and helpful, rooms are clean and spacious enough for two, location is convenient to buses and tours, very walkable to the harbor area and its surroundings, and having Le Kock downstairs for breakfast buffet and its delicious burger menu and bar made for a fantastic stay. For a hotel in a semi-busy location with nightlife, no issues really with any noise outside the property. We stayed 2x at this hotel and would again if in Reyjkavik.
