Great breakfast! Very pretty scenery, quiet, peaceful. The building is older. Wrong address was posted on hotels.com. It has been fixed after we called and had to drive 30min to the correct location

The hotel was once a farm and it is located in a picturesque area. Very relaxing. No TV in the rooms. Wonderful meals cooked for us and a lot of support fro my gluten-free vegan wife. The rooms are rather Spartan as is most of Iceland. It is a bit pricey. We were there fir 3 days and it was comforting to come home each day to a quite peaceful place

Excellent staying

첫째날 골든 서클을 관광하고 다음날 스포가코스 등 관광 일정을 소화하기에 위치가 최적입니다. 개인적으로 셀포스에서 숙박하는 것보다 낫다고 생각합니다. 저는 날씨가 좋지않아 보지 못했지만 주위가 조용하고 어두워서 날씨만 도와준다면 충분히 숙소에서도 오로라를 관측할 수 있을 것으로 보입니다. 주인분도 친절했으며 매우 맛있는 아침 식사도 먹을 수 있었습니다. 또한 자쿠지도 있어서 이용할 수 있습니다. 방 컨디션은 매우 청결하고 깔끔하고 따뜻했습니다. 추천합니다. It is best to tour the Golden Circle on the first day and to handle the tour schedule, such as the Spogas on the next day. Personally, I think it's better than staying at the Selfos. I didn't see the weather very well, but it's quiet and dark around, so if you help me with the weather, I think I can see an aurora at home. The owner was kind and could eat a very delicious breakfast. There is also a jacuzzi that you can use. The room was very clean, clean, and warm. Recommend.
