This place was an absolute winner. I wish I had more time there and in the East Fjords generally. Clean room, excellent common area, ample bathrooms, easy parking. Breakfast was ok, nothing special.

This is such a cute little guesthouse. Rooms are bright and a good size, everything is clean, including the shared bathrooms and the breakfast was delicious. We also took advantage of the walking paths along the property. Would recommend if you’re passing through the area!

Very nice property. Grounds well maintained. Staff within guesthouse very friendly. Unfortunately, very noisy, you hear other guests yelling / loudly talking throughout the night. Although the bed/room was nice, it did have an odor.

Warm and welcoming! They have a great common room where you can sit and enjoy the amazing views. Coffee and tea are available 27/7. Breakfast was full of variety - fresh breads, fruit, cereals/granola, butter, jams, Nutella, and peanut butter, cheese and ham. **For a small fee you can pack your own lunch from the breakfast supplies!! Fresh cookies and giant cinnamon rolls available for purchase. Staff was outstanding.

We were leery of the shared bathroom situation but everything was kept very clean and it actually all worked out just fine. Lovely breakfast! The rooms were simple, but had everything we needed- having the sink was nice so you didn’t have to run to the shared bathroom to brush your teeth and whatnot. My little girl forgot her Kindle and the team there notified us as quickly as possible but we were already too far away to turn back. I worked with a few wonderful ladies via email and phone and they arranged to ship it to our last hotel before leaving Iceland. They were so sweet and helpful and we really appreciated their kindness!
