"Got in late after a drive from east Iceland. Staff didn’t spend a lot of time with us or say much. Got to our room and it was clean. Weather was awful but we took a walk. Nice scenery and beautiful location. Breakfast was nice and we left early for nearby adventure. Got a random $7 charge with no explanation the next day. Not a ton of options in area, but overall decent stay. View was amazing."

"This hotel is perfectly fine as a launching point for the Park. The bathroom was small and it was hard to shower without getting water everywhere. The breakfast was just OK, but the dinner we ordered was surprisingly good. And of course with the Southern exposure, the room was pretty hot and the way the windows work don’t let much air in."
