More hostel than hotel

Pretty clean and the breakfast was a bonus but you must bring everything, no soap in the bathroom. My daughter’s bed collapsed, mattresses were really soft and the towels smelled musty. Not a place for bigger people, you have to squeeze to get into the shower and I was worried all night about the bed support. I would call this place a private room hostel, not hotel….name is deceiving.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This was our least favorite stay on our 11 day trip. The facility and the rooms are really run-down and are just not worth the price paid. The breakfast was mediocre and we did not appreciate being filmed during breakfast and having every guest asked what room they are in so they can charge you a full meal cost if you take a cracker to eat later. They also are very unorganized, stating they had no reservation for us and then finding it 5 minutes later.

An excellent guesthouse! We stayed here on the way back from Jokulsarlon. kirkjubæjarklaustur is only about 10min drive away, with lots of dining options. The room was spacious and clean. We had a room with a private bathroom, which was really convenient. The room stayed really warm, and we couldn't keep the window open wide enough to stay cool during the night... Breakfast was excellent!

The bed was very comfortable and it was really nice to have the toilet in the room. The shower was located just outside my room and the water temp/pressure were nice. I was basically just there to sleep. Check in was easy. Breakfast is available apparently but I had to leave early to get to my next tour on time.

Free breakfast was a bonus. Had room 22 which had afternoon sun. No ac in the room so it was very hot. The window opens only about 2 inches so it was hot practically all night even with window ajar. The kitchen and living room with tv was outside our room so it was quite noisy with everyone making

clean room, comfortable bed and breakfast. space is very limited, but doable for the type of travel we did. The only negative was the shared shower needed to be updated. Otherwise a great stay, we looked for the northern lights. Common area provided microwave, refrigerator and tea/coffee

As advertised - the room was able to accommodate me and my 3 children. We were treated to a show of the northern lights during our stay. We had to depart rather early but the staff was amazing and accommodated us with hot coffee and bagged lunches for the trip. We were in the main building - but I would return and stay in one of the beautiful cabins.
