Stressful check-in. The host was not responsive. They never sent the check-in instruction email and when I followed up via messaging them on Expedia repeatedly, they never responded. We had to call Expedia customer service (which required activating roaming service on our phone) and get them contact the property manager/host and even then they sent the passcode 1 hour after the original start time for of check-in. The stay itself went ok with no particular problem. Overall, a decent stay given its lower price range.

Fantastic accommodation, only hiccup was not receiving the codes prior and that no obe answered on the phone number provided. Another guest provided an email address and the check in eas then quicly sorted. Suggestion: Please provide a note with email as well as the phobe number for cobtact in the foyer and state that they have an open wifi connection for which allows for email to be sent ( especially for foreign ttravellers.) Very happy overall!

No paper towel in kitchen and bathroom. Quite a few flies in the kitchen. Smokers outside the windows are annoying.

The accommodations themselves were nice, but the space likely needed more care than an off-site manager. The women's restroom had two stalls, both of which did not have toilet paper accessible from the dispensers. No other backup toiletpaper was available. No paper towels were available for drying hands at the sink. The kitchen had no dishsoap for the communal dishes. All of these things were brought up via the hotels.com chat to the hotel, and no response was received during our stay there. The shower areas had a single body-gel/soap product and did not have standard shampoo/conditioner/soap as separate products. Bring shower shoes if you don't want to step on the common shower floor. The beds were comfortable, room had enough space compared to other rooms we had stayed in in Iceland so it was nice to be able to to open the suitcase and still step around it.

While the property is safe, there were too many spiders in the room. If you are scared of them, this may not be a place to sleep.

Stayed here for the 2nd night during our Iceland trip on the way back to Reykjavik. The code for self-check in was sent the day before. We were in the exact same room again. The room was clean, the shower room worked well, the kitchen was spacious and equipped with two sets of everything (sinks, ovens, stoves, microwaves, fridges, etc). Spacious dining areas with plenty of tables and chairs. Our room was really warm (June) without even turning on the heater. We actually needed to keep the window open to stay cool. The room had nice blackout curtains as well. A little sink in the room was super convenient. Overall, an excellent guesthouse. Thank you!

The code was sent to us in the afternoon on the day of our check-in. (We read multiple reviews saying they did not receive the code, so we were concerned, but we didnt have any issue!). The room was spacious for four people. Blackout curtains worked really well. The shower room was close by, and there were washers as well (we did not use it). Kitchen was kept clean, and we were able to warm up our food in microwaves, and keep food in the fridge overnight. Overall, a very excellent stay. Thank you!

Tanto la habitación como la casa donde nos quedamos estaban impecables. La habitación es pequeña pero apenas para llegar a descansar. La propiedad es mejor en realidad de como aparece en las fotos.

Arrived at 8:30pm. Tried many times to open the door with the code they sent us, would not open. Called the company, texted and sent them a message through expedia. No response. Even had a expedia agent try to contact them, no luck. Tried to get a refund and did not get one. Absolute joke compared to the other places we stayed in Iceland.
