Cute place to stay, was very clean, the scenery was beautiful. The negative was that all the doors were very heavy and the two beds in the double room were very narrow. We got a room with the shared bathroom, but the doors were heavy and the room wasn't very spundproof so we could hear other guests opening and closing doors and packing, and I always was worried about the noise I was making when I was opening and closing my door at night. Ultimately though, if you're a heavy sleeper, this place would be a great stay.

The front desk receptionist was superb when we realized we would be arriving late with very helpful instructions! I really wanted to give a 5 star rating for everything, but the facility upkeep needs work; I won't mention details since they are very obvious. Also, a sign at the driveway about a block away would be helpful to direct guests to the correct driveway. Correct street sign, but wrong entrance. Great breakfast!

We were extremely satisfied with our stay here. This guesthouse had flexible check-in, a spacious and welcoming room, cozy beds, and a nice clean bathroom. We were also provided breakfast the next morning which is always a wonderful touch. All in all, this place is well worth the stay (and conveniently located near Akureyri on the ring road)

They obviously know that they have an issue with people finding their location so they give you the coordinates. We first went to a location in the city-not it. Then drove through the mountain fog for an hour to the location where the coordinates took us. A farm I. The middle of nowhere- also not it. We never found it. They really need to provide specific directions to the facility (if it actually exists)- completely disappointed and angry as alternatives weren’t available

This is a gorgeous spot to stay. I loved the the hot tub, and our room was quite comfortable. There was limited options for dinner for us, as the vegetarian option wasn't available, but they were great to make something up for us. Would recommend this place.

They provided a clear instruction in advance how to check in if we arrived out of their regular check-in hours. The motel is right off the route 1, very convenient to get to. The staff was friendly, although the restaurant was closed when we arrived, she did take extra effort to make a sandwich for my son. I really appreciate that because otherwise I need to drive ~20 minutes one-way to the town to get food around 10pm. It has a hot tub which may help travelers relax a little bit after a long day trip. Breakfast was included so we can hit the road in the morning without worrying to find a place to eat.

We stayed at this guest house for one night just recently. From being greeted cordially as we entered to making sure we are good to go as we left the next morning, everything about this place was just too good to be true. We arrived after a long, tiring day of hiking, driving and just generally being out and about all day, and the sweet lady at the front offered to heat up their hot tub for us to relax. At that point, I didn't even realize our stay included the hot tub, until she told us we also had breakfast as part of our reservation - 20 more mins of sleep as we didn't have to prepare for anything to eat early next day! The hot tub is essentially outdoors but in a covered space which makes you feel less cold. Breakfast next morning was also great, with vegan brownies as a surprise! All in all, SO much better than so many other hotels we stayed in that charge 3.000ISK per person for breakfast let alone the room charges for their small size! Thank you for making us feel at home!
