There didn’t appear to be a lot of guests but we were in one of the pods furtherest away from the bathroom/kitchen area. A long walk in the wind and cold at night for sure. Overall

Overall clean and exactly as expected. The pod was cold even with the heater on and there was extreme wind on the night we stayed that was extremely loud. The communal space is nice, but the washrooms were under stocked in terms of paper towel and toilet paper.

Room was clean, beds comfortable and quiet over all. The light on all night outside the door is kind of annoying and in the middle of the cold night the heater wasn’t keeping the room warm enough.

The pod is extremely small, and extremely cold, it uses electronic heater to heat the pod, whee ed n the temperature is low, it can not heat up the pod well. The last day we encountered a wind gust of 64 mph, the whole pod and the beds were shaking. The kitchen and shower area are warm, clean, has internet and can cook

Amazing scenery. Our pod unfortunately had a leak in the ceiling and we got water in our room. Very cold room during the night and bathrooms were too far from some pods, we had to drive because of the cold there. Impossible to get a hold of the host although it did work out in the end. No internet in the pods and no signal or very bad in most places of the facility.

Great experience here, only recommendation is to have the spots labeled, someone parked in the spot for our cabin and we had to park by the front and walk all the way over there.

Wasn’t expecting much based on previous reviews, and was very glad I was surprised. This turned out to be an amazing stay. Only complaint was that the kitchen area was rather overcrowded which isn’t really anything drastic.

Perfect stay, beautiful environment, washroom and common area very clean and efficient. Only thing I messaged them the day before the stay because they didn’t send the code for my pod I booked, but they did respond the day off the stay which was a little nerve racking seeing all the reviews about this. But over ball it was beautiful, good location near the main waterfall; skogafoss

It was a very pleasant surprise. Its reviews were so negative that we tried to cancel. But it was a great place to stay. Although it is close to Route 1, it is remote. If you wish to eat bring you food. We return to the area, we would stay again.

Great rustic stay!

It was great. What a beautiful setting. Not having a washroom in our pod was the only drawback, but we coped. I have no idea how to pay for this room (or if I already did). I’m sure someone will be in contact.

I arrived late and my pod had been given to someone else. No problem - a very helpful young man came by and set me up in a different pod. The place is in a spectacular location and the pods are super-comfortable, cozy, and warm. I would stay there again in an instant.
