The rooms are fairly new, and spacious! Very comfy wool blakets and chairs and good wifi, it was actually nice to spend our evenings in the room after a long day of driving and hiking around. The dinner and breakfasts were ok, but not outstanding to write about.

We had the loveliest stay, from the cosy room, to the kitchen area, to the lovely decor touches, the sheep, the amazing breakfast, the crazy beautiful views and the lovely hosts. So glad to have stayed here. We loved the generous breakfast options and the talk we had with our hosts, a morning to fuel us for a great day

The hotel is situated right next to the road, which was very convenient. There was plenty of parking space. All rooms are on the ground floor with separate entrances and easy self check-in. The view from the hotel was stunning, and the tinted windows provided extra privacy. The room itself was small but a perfect fit for two people. There is also a kitchen with all amenities.

    The guesthouse has everything you need for a pleasant stay. In particular, we enjoyed the breakfast and the friendly and helpful hosts. The guesthouse is located at the starting point of a hike that we enjoyed thoroughly.

    The guesthouse was absolutely spotless, and felt like a warm clean haven after a rainy day on the ring road. The breakfast was lovely, with homemade baked goods, homemade smoked salmon and fresh waffles. The host couldn’t have been more welcoming!

    Everything about this guesthouse is great! The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property! The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products. The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal. The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.
