We loved staying here. Paulina and Tomic were very friendly and had helpful tips for traveling around Iceland (how to check road and weather conditions). The lamb dinner was outstanding! And the breakfast had many different dishes to choose from. Everything was very clean and the kitchen in the guest house was well stocked. It’s about 20+ minutes west of Vik. We would stay here again.
