adequate stay, but some drawbacks

breakfast selectionsmall roominconvenient sink
the hotel breakfast included skyr, oatmeal, boiled eggs, various breads, meats, and cheeses. coffee, tea and juices were available.
the room i had was quite small. it was difficult to maneuver with luggage. the sink was also oddly placed outside the bathroom, inconvenient and led to water spillage..

I find the location easy for walking downtown, especially to the harbor area. The bed felt insanely comfortable so I had very good sleep. Even the smallest room was adequate for one person, it has what I needed.

My room had enough windows that let in a fresh breeze. Double drapes in the room block out the light. I had access to a balcony because my room was on the top floor. This was a pleasant surprise.
