The accommodations are definitely basic, but we were impressed with how clean and neat everything was. The staff was very kind and friendly. The breakfast was lovely, more than we expected from such a small place. The views from the property are just beautiful!

Simply great

Nice, modern, clean hotel. Supereasy check-in and check-out. Great views! Just 2 small issues: Breakfast is listed on the web from 7:30 but is served from 7:00. And the proper hotel breakfast must contain scrambled eggs!

Fantastic spot. First time in Southeastern Iceland, and I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. My eleven-year-old was more than impressed that the TV had Crunchyroll installed!

Even tho the location is right off the highway I find it secluded enough to have the darkness needed to observe the sky in hopes of northern lights. Late at night barely any cars pass by so is quiet and serene. During the day we enjoyed the beautiful views pf the glaciar and during breakfast the tranquil environment was great too. Room was super spacious, bathroom too but the extractor didnt

Small, but clean room. Hallways had faint sulfur smell after raining, but the room in the non-renovated building was clean and kept well. Property was overall OK- nothing specifically wrong with the room, but atmosphere was a little less cozy than other places. Room was comfortable, though, so if you’re looking for a decent stay, would recommend.
