This is a unique property with a main building for check-in, the restaurant, and some guest rooms, plus additional rooms in a separate building and a mix of older and newer cabins. We really enjoyed our stay, though the layout was a bit confusing upon arrival.

The room I stayed in was clean and so was the bathroom. It was definitely worth the price. That said, the breakfast being an additional thing to pay for was way overpriced for what was available.

This is a nice guesthouse with separate duplexes. The rooms are small and the sink in the bathroom is the smallest sink I have ever seen. Good water pressure and hot water. The room is heated by an electric heater and it was pretty hot. It’s fine for one night. Parking is easy. Staff were pleasant. Dinner was good but pretty expensive.

Disliked: Amenities
Had all the basic necessities and the room, while small, was comfortable. The WiFi was inconsistent at times. The $24 breakfast could have been much better, especially for the price. Unfortunately, there are not many other food options nearby in the morning. The museum café up the road does make good food though, and I would recommend having dinner there..

Lovely little cottage hotel. Perfect for our family of 5, we each had our own bed. Its in a quiet location, which we enjoyed. There aren't many food options, so keep that in mind. But overall, our stay here was great. This was a convenient place just a 15 minute ride to the Jokulsarlon lagoon, where we started our glacier tour teh next day,

Very basic small hotel room. Not much space to put carry on luggage. It would be nice to have at least a mini fridge since there are no stores close, restaurants are expensive so I could put a couple of groceries for next day travel. We had dinner in the restaurant since there is nothing else really close by. It was pretty good. The shower curtain and towels were worn out a bit. Loved watching the sheep outside the window and free coffee/tea in reception area. We didn’t want to pay $24 a person for breakfast but it looked pretty good.

Quirky little guest house. Staff was helpful. Parking adequate. Very remote area so if you need groceries or ice, make sure you are prepared in advance. Breakfast was a typical Icelandic spread( sliced cheese, meat, veggies, fruit and porridge/cereal). Very remote… no TV or fridge
Yummy dinner
