Pleasant basic hotel with clean rooms. Not much else you need in a hotel. Windows don’t open apart from a tiny central bit which is all as well since the wind would have ripped the main windows off their hinges!
The bathroom was horrible. It had the smallest sink I’ve ever seen, fit for a prison cell. The shower had a flimsy curtain around it so the water got everywhere in the bathroom, had to use towels to soak up water. The room had flies and I overheard another guest complain about flies in her room.
Room was good. Breakfast was plentiful in buffet style and good. Staff was helpful in seeing northern lights - which we did! Parking very easy and convenient.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Hotel was older but clean, the restaurant had good food, but they were bringing out orders one by one and as food was cooked it seemed. A little disorganized.
The rooms were spacious. The staff was friendly. The issue with the shower wetting the whole bathroom floor was a problem especially when there are no shelves or hooks to keep your toiletries and clean clothes. Breakfast was good.
Very easy access, nice quiet accommodations. Thoughtful coffee/tea station near the rooms. Lovely dining area with filling breakfast options and hospitable hosts. Would definitely return. Great value in Iceland!
Might be fine if you’re traveling with a huge bus group but if you’re looking for someplace cosy, unique or special this isn’t it.

Property was very disappointing considering the cost. The bathroom had three in one for body wash/ shampoo/ conditioner. There was no separation from the toilet and shower so the floors were chronically wet. Not impressed.

Lovely staff.
The Staff were great, friendly & helpful.
The room was ok but could have done with a little fridge. Sadly, the bed wasn't the most comfortable.
The room was clean , simple & basic.
Very tasty food in the restuarant. Ate there both nights of our stay & the meals were lush.
Clean and pleasant guesthouse with restaurant. Friendly and accommodating staff. Bed was fine; flat pillows :|
Great location if you are doing a Ring Road trip to see sights. Amazing sights within an hour-ish each way.
