-The room and the bathroom was not soo clean and tidy. -They did not have a kitchen/a electric kettle to make a coffee or tea. -Check-in as easy and did not have any issues even though we arrive at 8.30pm. -I will not go back to this guest house.

Walk inside to get landline, door was unlocked. IF you can check in, all is well. Attempted to stay at starlight camping pods owned by same property 2 days later and that did not go well. Location is lovely, close to Seljavallalaug swimming pool. Cute brindled cows next door. However, little to no cell phone service in this area. On 17th landline worked; successfully got code for rooms at guesthouse. By message, codes were not sent til the 18th aka the day of check-out, so that didn’t help. That was unhelpful but innocuous at first. Then they sent that picture to expedia as "proof" of check-in codes at Starlight Camping Pods for the 19th… which were never sent nor did the landline work nor did the phone get answered when we finally gave up and drove out until an area of cell service coverage. thank god we found another place to stay (drove all the way to the city) instead of trying and waiting all night because they were never sent. no refund. Because non refundable, I would understand if WE had canceled. But I asked for money back because we were literally unable to check in and they literally left us in the cold. They said no. all in all I think it would have been lovely if you are able to check in. But I can’t say that is reliable.

There were folks checking into the property at all hours, and the noise made it impossible to sleep. Some sound proofing in the halls could help with this, as the empty hallways amplified voices and the doors being unlocked/slammed shut. Our shower head was broken as well. The check in was easy and someone came to tidy and clean during the day.

It was unique but people arrived at 1-2 am and woke everyone up both nights we stayed. No one answered the phone when we called the number but finally got an email with a room number and a code at straight up 4 pm. No communication prior to arrival like it said. There were towels but no rags to use. No blackout curtains which left the room bright all night and in July, there is no night! An experience for sure but I can’t say I would return.

This is a very bare bones property. It's a self check-in facility, and is a little unusual in Iceland guesthouses in that there is no breakfast facilities. That said, it was perfectly functional.

Check-in was a severe stress test. I never received the digital access code electronically. On to Plan "B". The sign on the building said to call a number, but having dialed countless times no answer. On to Plan "C". Going into the "lobby", if you want to call it that, the sign now noted two numbers to call, neither of which were answered after trying, again, countless times. Fortunately for my wife and I an obvious employee probably leaving for the day, came to my rescue and got us into our room. An hour and a half of valuable Icelandic daylight wasted. The building itself was a simple barn like structure with two floors. I say barn like because it appeared to me that that was what it was in an earlier life before conversion into a guesthouse. Our room was absolutely tiny. I have seen horse stalls larger than this. As for amenities, there were none, not even a cup in the WC to drink from. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS FACILITY TO ANYONE - NOT EVEN MY WORST ENEMY.

The surrounding area is great. Room is very small and the bathroom smelled liked mold. My biggest problem with the place was the other guests. Everyone was not considerate of other guests. Talking loudly, slamming doors all through out the night and early morning

This is a no-frills guesthouse that’s fine if you just need a bed to sleep in for the night. Our room had a bed, heater and bathroom, that’s it! They had Wi-Fi but nothing else. Property is nice if you want to do some walking.

I am so surprised that this property can be rated at 3! We booked a three beds room, so small! No table, no chairs in the room, only a painted tree stump using as a very small table——don’t think it in a artistic way. The room is under the floor of the public kitchen, so every movement upstairs you can hear!

Not recommended at all. Fire alarm started beeping in the middle of the night waking everybody up, water and electricity got disconected. Owner didn't attend our phonecalls and messages, so we were left alone and luckly we got to stop the alarm but with the risk of beeing dangerous to be in the building and expending the rest of the night. Still waiting for an appology and explanation.

Don't stay here
The only thing good about this place was the location, everything else was pretty terrible. The check in process was okay since we planned to be there during given hours. However, of the 2 rooms we booked, 1 of them smelled so bad it was hard to even stand in there. It smelled of mold and mildew. We chose to spend no time in there other than to sleep. It was too cramped to do much else anyways, barely enough room to open two suitcases. The other two people in our traveling party refused to enter our room because of the smell. When we called to get the room switched after noticing the smell, no one answered the phone. There is no one on site so phone call or email was the only option. Because it was after check in time we got no response so had to spend the night in that room. We called back in the morning and they assigned us another room and gave us the wrong room code so we couldn't get in there when we got back. Spent another night in the terrible smelling room for this reason. When we called back again the next day they essentially told us the code should have worked and then hung up. We decided there was no point arguing and left at check out time. The showers were so small you could barely move. There was no division between the shower and the rest of the tiny bathroom so everything was wet and smelly. I would stay literally anywhere else. The water didn't taste drinkable and also smelled like mildew so we went to a nearby waterfall to fill up.

Beautiful property, Lovely room. The room I stayed in does get a little too much traffic to expect a quiet rest, as the stairs to get to breakfast were above my head, and the front door that slammed upon entry or exit was right by the room as well.
