They should be specific stating that the basement doesn’t have a full bathroom (no shower). They should explain that WC is only toilet. We only found out when we got there and paid extra for a private bathroom.

The property was very nice. Parking was a little tight, the self check in was relatively easy to figure out and the room was spacious and clean.

Great Ring Road layover Guesthouse.

Great bathrooms! Shower had good water pressure and plenty of room to move around. The bed was comfortable and long enough for my 6 foot frame. Easy to find and close to eateries. Close to gas stations and grocers.

Comfortable and welcoming

We had an incident regarding the smoke detector when we had to call the manager. They were really kind and immediately responded to our needs and the local area is just wonderful. There are grocery shops nearby and the location of the house is quite suit suitable for the trip to other nearby places. This is the best guesthouse by far in Iceland.

Loved the swimming pool nearby. Don't miss the local pools while in Iceland. The room was tidy and small. There was an common area to cook in - which provided a good opportunity to meet other travelers. Shared bathrooms worked out fine, as there were 3 for 5 or 6 rooms.

Great superclean Guesthouse

Great guesthouse. We stayed in the room on the lowest floor with attached toilet. Room very comfortable, well insulated and of great size. We arrived late in the evening (beyond check in time) after being caught in a snow storm but the hotel personnel was waiting for us and assisted us in parking the car. It snowed overnight and again the hotel cleard the snow around the car so that we can get away. Kitchen was well equipped and very clean. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Iceland with or without the snow...

Leider haben wir den Code zum Zugang des Hauses nicht erhalten. Zum Glück kam jedoch zeitgleich mit uns der Eigentümer und hat uns ins Haus gelassen. Die Buchung über Expedia hat somit nicht gut geklappt. Die Unterkunft hat jedoch dafür überzeugt. Es hatte alles was man brauchte, war ordentlich und nett eingerichtet.

鍵がドアに付いている状態でチェックインのため、他のお客様による部屋の選択間違えが発生し、私達はすぐに部屋に入ることが出来なかった。連絡をするとオーナーが数分で到着し、その間に、部屋を間違えたゲストが戻ってきて、無事解決した。オーナーはとても感じがよくスピーディに解決してくれた。
