Breiðholtslaug — Restaurant in Reykjavik

Pools and hot tubs are pretty decent, like 4stars, little bit of retro vibe but clean. If you are looking for sauna and know how to use it properly you won’t enjoy it. There is female and male separate finnish sauna inside and steam bath outside. Female finnish sauna was nice, but male wasn’t, it was smelly and not hot enough.

Then, after I finished my shower and put on my swimsuit, a staff went in and ask me again if I know I need a shower before swim. Finally, a nice girl helped explained what happened to her and let her leave. The very sunny winter Saturday has been ruined, and I start to know that Madam Butterfly in Harpa last year is not...
