"The location is good - just a walk away from the port, where you can take the whale-watching cruises. I was previously in EDDA hotels in Iceland, and I have to admit, that Fosshotels are a degree lower.. The beds were a bit strange, but otherwise ok. The smell of hot water can kill, but it is in all the places in the area due to geological reasons. Breakfast - even though not as good as EDDA, it served quite well, one could even make waffles, however no yogurt. Guests can also use free PC in the lobby for checking emails. And if needed, the receptionist can make free hot water for making tea in your thermos =) All in all, despite few drawbacks, I guess the best choice in that very town. " - Anonymous
