The hotel location was great. The check in process was bad. At first Petr charged me early check in for all 4 days instead of just the first day, I had to be the one to catch this. When he resubmitted it I DID NOT select any option and was questioning Petr that I thought the amount was still too much. While talking to him the payment went thru charging me at a .008145 USD exchange rate instead of .0077. Seems they make a profit by having this 3rd party option as their default or Petr selected it as the option. Hotel cost me additional money. I tried addressing this with the hotel staff and he could not help me. I then tried disputing this with my credit card company and they accepted the hotel claim that the charges were valid. The hotel states it has blackout curtains but there is still a lot of light that gets through the top and bottom of the big window. The hotel also states that it is soundproofed but it clearly is not when there are wooden floors. I constantly heard furniture moving in the rooms around me. The breakfast buffet was excellent.

Hotel was picturesque, clean, located nearer the harbour part of town which meant it was quiet, but near enough to use the bus or walk into town. Small grocery shop next door. Property also had a cafebar within. Reception staff were helpful. More of a place for adults, but you could say that about the whole city.

The hotel in right downtown amongst shops and lots of restaurants from high end Icelandic to English, Irish and American pubs 2 blocks away. The entire area is walkable with small quaint streets, music, and the Settlement Exhibit (history of Reykjavík from early Viking settlement to now is right under the hotel. The staff will arrange pick up from the airport, passes and transportation to the major hot springs, etc. A huge breakfast buffet is served daily (extra cost) featuring both Islandic and American foods as well as amazing breads and pastries. Rooms are small but extremely clean and well equipped. The street it is on is historic and quiet yet only a block from lots of activity and the tour pick up point at City Hall. Also has a bar with a nice reading area.
