Pros: good breakfast, easy check-in Cons: very thin walls, neighbors were noisy quite late and it was hard to sleep at night. It was okay for one night, however would recommend staying elsewhere if spending more time in this area.

It’s a convenient location to stop. The guesthouse is fine. It’s just not very up-to-date. However, the staff is wonderful.

This guesthouse had everything we needed while travelling the ring road via Mývatn. The rooms were clean, but definitely not sound proof as other guests using the kitchen were easily heard through the door. The guesthouse was close to the Myvatn nature baths as well as lake Myvatn.

Can’t beat the location when it comes to accessing all the incredible naturalistic beauty in the area. Easy check-in and good place to rest for two nights. A bit noisy with the thin walls, but thats what you come to expect when staying at guesthouses. Worth it for the price!

Overall a good experience. Minor thing: doors were making creaking noise, so if other guests in a different room open their door to use the restroom or access the kitchen, you could hear it in your room at night.

Wonderful staff left us a notes with detailed instructions for our late check-in. Thank you! It’s nice to know they’re offering laundry service, even we didn’t have a chance to do it. Very clean room; like the” shoes off” idea. One bathroom door has very loud scratches sounds when open and close it. Will recommend it for it’s location too😊

Cute place, very well situated. But take earplugs. Quiet hours are until 7am but the hotel was crashing about making breakfast from 6am so we couldn't sleep any further. About what you'd expect for a hostel type experience
