The garage was converted and it was OK; The bath water smelled of sulfur, please do not disturb if you mind; No service, but it was worth the price. Overall, it was OK and worth staying in, and the room rate was cheap.

No slippers, toothbrush, toothpaste, including shampoo, laundry detergent, shower gel, etc. Check-out is very convenient, just leave the key in the lock on the door, no need to inform anyone Staff is not on duty 24 hours a day, and may not be in the hotel, you can contact by phone if necessary; they will come to the room to clean up around 3 pm local time every day The location is very convenient, no more than 5 minutes walk to the city center, there are souvenir shops, daily necessities stores, restaurants, etc. nearby

We had a layover in Keflavík on our way home from elsewhere. High wind speeds delayed and eventually cancelled all flights. Cue hundreds of passengers from multiple flights scrambling to book hotels at the same time. After lots of “sold out” on every website I eventually found Galtafell and am so glad we stayed there. Super clean and comfortable, and a short walk from everything so we were able to enjoy some time enjoying the city on this unplanned stay. When we have a proper trip to Iceland again we would definitely stay there. Thank you so much!
