This was our last night in Iceland and a great way to end the trip. The rooms are cozy and there is a common area that we hung out in during the afternoon. The dinning and breakfast area was great. Good food and great service. I highly recommend this Guesthouse. The night we were there the northern lights would out. It was easy to get to a dark place on the property to see them.

It was a quiet setting off the main road. They dining area was nice, the dinner very good. There was a good selection on the breakfast buffet. The room was very small for the price.

It was our first time on Iceland and it was also first time staying at a Guesthouse like this. Since we expected it to be a house owned by a family with a couple rooms and nice breakfast in the morning, but it was actually it was like a nice motel I would say and really rich breakfast and we were left divined. Service was great, staff at breakfast so nice, everything was refilled really quickly. Really nice place to stay!

The motel is in a quiet place with beautiful view. Very close to route 1, easy to find/approach. The staff was friendly. Complimentary Breakfast was provided, they run a small onsite restaurant for lunch/dinner as well, which save travelers trouble to find place to eat.

Do NOT book this property through Exp*di@. It’s a nice place to stay, but now that you have found it, PLEASE do yourself a favor and book directly with them. Exp*di@ will not, under any circumstances, share your e- mail addy or ph0ne # with the property and so the Guesthouse staff literally have no way to send you the check-in instructions. Since they are a small property, the place is not staffed 24/7 and the front desk closes at 10p. We got delayed on the road and so would be arriving closer to 11p and realized we had no way to get the key other than message them through Exp*di@ and hope that they got our message. But Exp*di@ blocked out the e- mail address I sent, and my international phone plan did not let me text them (for some reason). It was a disaster and we almost had no place to stay. Now - the Guesthouse is not brand new to this and should have messaged us through Exp*di@ as soon as we booked to let us know of this limitation and how to contact them, and they did not, which is why I took off a star. The room itself was small and stuffy, with an extremely soft bed, but it was an OK place to spend a night. The location was the best part as it got us closer to destinations along the South Coast. The breakfast was extremely disappointing and you should plan on finding food somewhere else in the morning. But with all that said, I’d stay here again if I needed a place to stay in the area and I booked with the Guesthouse DIRECTLY.

The property, staff, and cleanliness were excellent! The staff was friendly and helped us with anything we needed. The complementary breakfast was wonderful. The rooms were nice. I liked how they had 2 private bathrooms and 2 private shower rooms with toilets. I wish it would've listed that laundry was a fee and i wish they had a feezer to keep our icepacks frozen for our cooler on our travels. Overall, wonderful place to stay!!
