My husband, son (1 year), and I stayed here in November. The studio had a wonderful bathroom with a towel warmer! Believe me, you will want it. Great kitchenette and comfy beds. The hotel provides FREE milk, juice, and cereal for your stay. Oh, and tons of free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate for FREE! The staff was very friendly. We also hired a sitter through them for an adult visit to the Blue Lagoon. The sitter showed up 30 minutes early to meet our son and review things. She was...

These apartments are very centrally located - convenient to dining, shopping, grocery and attractions. The apartment itself was absolutely lovely - clean, well decorated, included basics like Salt & Pepper, coffee as well as niceties, like bathrobes. Our host graciously upgraded us from a studio to a one bedroom that was available and we had plenty of space - which was great for the final pack to fly home the next day. It was really nice to have off street parking and a lovely balcony.
