The checkin is self service so be sure to check your email for how to get into the building as there is no receptionist. It was very easy to do though. We got to our room and it was clean and smelled very fresh. After spending the night we left and ran into the owner in the hallway. He was very friendly and helped us with our luggage. The Black Beach Guesthouse is a great choice. I would recommend anyone stay while in Iceland.

Self check in was really easy, rooms were clean and comfortable. Two or three restaurants in easy walking distance, and a black sand beach about 5 minutes away. Friendly and helpful staff in the morning around checkout time.

This is a beautiful little gem in a quiet location. The room was exactly like the picture, spacious, clean and comfortable. I was a little worried about the fact that there was no staff on site, however the staff responded quickly to my emails and provided great service. I was very impressed. Great work!
