These spacious dorm-like rooms are spread out over a group of buildings. They are close to the city's hot-springs-fed pool. They charge $15 US per person to use the pool. The breakfast was in the cafeteria in the basement of the main reception building and it had meats, cheeses, eggs, yogurt, fruit, coffee, tea, juice, and pastries.

A Summer Pop-Up Hotel in a School Dorm at Lovely Laugar, East of Akureyri, in Thingeyasveit
The grounds of this school turned Summer Hotel are pleasant and tranquil. The hotel itself is the school dormitory repurposed for Summers, and the Restaurant is located in a large schoolroom, but it is staffed with a talented and friendly group of foreign visitors, who happened at the time of my visit in June 2018, to be Italians, so the food was also.
A dorm is not exactly a hotel
This is a school dorm converted (for the summer?) into a hotel. No TV, no telephone (between rooms), no elevators, rooms far from the main building, no reading lights next to beds, no stands for luggage, no night stands next to beds. Clean, 2 desks in the room.
