The hotel had a clean and cozy room with luxurious linens, but it was not heated during my stay. The service was impeccable, with efficient housekeeping. The location was comfortable and convenient, offering a scenic view. The dining experience, while satisfying, lacked diversity in options.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a nice kitchen, living room, and separate bedroom, ideal for those who enjoy apartment-style amenities. The proximity to a trucking facility may cause some noise disturbance. The location is convenient for travelers with a car and those needing easy access to ferries.

The hotel is conveniently located near the ferry terminal, perfect for a quick stay before departing Iceland, and it allowed me to enjoy a lovely 7-mile run along the harbor front walkway. The rooms were spotlessly clean, homey, and equipped with comfortable beds suitable for dive gear. The staff members were attentive to my needs, enhancing my overall experience. However, it is important to note that the location may require a longer walk into downtown without a car.

The hotel is conveniently located near the ferry terminal, making it perfect for a quick stay before departing. The rooms, though a bit dated and facing some noise disturbances, are well-utilized in terms of space. The location is fantastic for ferry travelers and offers proximity to various attractions, but may require a longer walk to downtown. Dining options are available, especially in the kitchen and room service, while the desserts could be improved. Overall, the facilities are adequate for a short stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were excellent, very clean, and well-stocked with everything one might need, making travelling with a baby much easier. The ocean views of Newcastle Channel were breathtaking. The location was excellent, just three blocks away from the ferry, allowing for scenic runs along the harbour front walkway. The service was top-notch, especially the housekeeping. However, the long walk into downtown might not suit less active guests. The dining options were diverse and included gluten-free dishes. Overall, a great value for money with superb facilities.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, even had coffee and milk in the fridge. The small kitchen with all the utilities, sofa, and TV made my stay even more enjoyable. However, there were some traffic noises at night that could bother light sleepers. The location was nice, close enough to walk to the ferry, but a bit of a longish walk into downtown. The service was fantastic, especially the housekeeping. The dining experience was cozy, with homemade pastries provided. Overall, a great value for money with some minor noise disturbances in an otherwise pleasant stay.
