The pod was an excellent soze for a solo travellor abd the kitchen that was available made it easy to make your own food and save money i an expensive location. I was able to check in early which helped a lot since my flight landed very early.

Fosshotel Reykjavik
We had a pleasant stay. The hotel was in walking distance of many shops and restaurants and we were picked up for excursions right outside of the hotel. Very convenient.

Fosshotel Barón
Staff were helpful, friendly and polite. The location of this hotel is excellent for exploring on foot. The rooms require a little updating, beds were firm, curtains don't block out the light (long daylight hours) and no fridges in rooms.
