Clean, a little dated. Very friendly and helpful staff. Biggest issue was a delay in receiving our check-in code.

Perfect for just a place to sleep
Very sweet little room we had to twins. Storage is good 2 wardrobes to share stuff. All very clean and beds were comfy. Check I in very easy they just give you a code for keys. Bathroom was clean however it was very small and no shower curtain or door so the floor got very wet and had to use our hand towels to mop it up leaving us with no fresh hand towels

Just what we needed, affordable and walkable to the Laxness arena. Window opens for air circulation, no A/C.
We will return.

Older Hotel with character
Location was good, about a half mile walk to the Cathedral. Rooms are simple, but comfortable. No elevator so you will have to walk up 1-4 flights of stairs. Breakfast was included with a selection of breads, cheese and cold meats. Free parking was a public lot half a mile away and was only free during the night. Staff during the day was friendly and helpful. No staff onsite after dark, but you are given a key to a side entrance. Street side can be a little noisy at night.

Its an okay hotel
Hotel is generaly good but the heater is not sufficient enough to heat the room and the bathroom. Hotel by the way has no lift, good for excercise. Location is very good and staff are friendly.

Well priced centrally located hotel
Nice hotel with friendly helpful staff.
Only downside, if it is a downside is front door is closed at 7PM and there are no staff there until next morning. You are given a key to a side door but not sure what would happen if there was an emergency.

A lovely Hotel
Closed to a bunch of points of interest, in walking distance. Amiable hotel staff and nice ambiance. A simple yet comfy hotel for a tourist!

Very close to city - convenient!
They do not have double beds, so don't expect it! But the single beds were clean and tidy.
Breakfast was excellent.
There is NO FREE PARKING - but it is available at only 6 Euro for 24 hours, which is good.

Friendly personnel went out of their way to make us comfortable and the breakfast was terrific - much better than we'd expected for this price. Will book again if I ever go back to Cologne!

Friendly staff and daily cleaning. Hot water and heating is good. Location is pretty good close to the center.
However the pillows are very old and not so comfortable. Wifi is pretty bad with interruptions

Ich hätte ja schwören können, daß bei der Buchung stand 'Rezeption immer? geöffnet'. Leider findet man sowas im Ausdruck dann ja nicht wieder. Das elektronische Einchecken ist NICHT mein Ding! Außerdem habe ich unterwegs kein e-mail. Ich kannte das Hotel bereits. Zimmer war gut in Ordnung, Gegend auch. Beim Auschecken hing an der AUSGANGSTÜR unten im Treppenhaus ein Zettel mit der Aufschrift 'Zimmerschlüssel bitte im Zimmer auf dem Tisch ablegen'. Und das, NACHDEM ich die ganzen Stufen vom 3. Stock runtergestiegen war. Da ist doch irgendwas nicht zuende gedacht worden?! Aber ich komme gern nochmal wieder, nun weiß ich ja, wie das alles geht ...

Das mitunter das schlechteste Hotel wo ich untergebracht war. Sicher nicht zu empfehlen. Da dreckig, alles alt, vierter Stock und kein Fahrstuhl,kein TV, Milben, man hört alles vom Nachbarn , das Putzpersonal kommt einfach rein und für diesen Preis geht das garnicht.
