In an industrial area of town, but nice place to stay. The building and room felt new, and everything was very clean & comfortable. The host was very responsive and friendly.

An incredible stay

The hotel was clean and bed was comfortable. It’s a great location. Last night the sweetest man knocked on our door and let us know to go outside and see the northern lights. He worked there. He went above and beyond to make sure we didn’t miss this spectacular view and was very kind, funny, and polite.

As stated in other reviews it is in an industrial area with not much in the area. We found a great family restaurant around the corner. Great place to stopover while doing the ring road

This place is really in the middle of nowhere, but if you are heading east by the south coast, then it's perfect. We stayed here first stay after we arrived and it met our needs well. There is no staff. They give a code to the main door and code to your room. The room has the necessities. It's a no-frills simple suitable stay.

Very clean and comfortable property. It is however in an industrial estate which is slightly strange setting for a good property. 10 minutes aways is a lovely black sand beach howeve and it is a good location for exploring the peninsula
