Bare basic property. Note posted that only so much hot water will be available. No black out curtains. Curtain would be nice to have on the front door window too. Tiny shower. No frills.
Nice receptionists. Clean room.

Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. We had a very comfortable stay. Road to the hotel is gravel and that’s the only negative point about this hotel.

Very clean room, spacious and a very polite, friendly and warm host. The family running the guesthouse does everything with love and you can see that! Breakfast is a great. Only thing, maybe a kettle could be handy. I'd love to make a coffee and hot water can help with that.

Got a nice little cottage. The place is pretty remote on a dirt road. Which was part of the appeal of it. Ate dinner there (food was ok). Service was great. Everyone I encountered there seemed really focused on service. The cottage itself was fairly basic. No TV but had wifi. The shower was awkwardly in the bathroom.

Great place to stay. Staff are all kind and wonderful. Only frustration is that price for breakfast advertised on Expedia is very wrong and is actually over double. 30.000+ vs 15.000 ISK.
