Reviews
Arrived having received clear instructions for parking ( paid garage across the road ) and check in .
We had the side annex , with its own door entrance.
Very well equipped with kettle , microwave , fridge , Tv ( didn't use ) and WiFi.
Large comfortable double bed , single duvets which seen common in Europe ( not so in the UK ).
Spacious bathroom with washing machine too .
TO NOTE THE WATER IS EXTEMELY HOT STRAIGHT FROM THE TAP AND SHOWER AS ITS GEO THERMAL AND HAS A SULPHUR SMELL .
A warning sign would be useful if you didn't know about Iceland's water supply.
Breakfast included , couldn't ask for anything more , fresh home made bread and cakes , meats , fish, hams , fruit , yoghurt, cereal and i'm sure if you had specific dietary needs they would be more than catered for.
The host , Steinunn was unbelievable, we hired a car and she checked the weather in real time for the locations we had planned , offered us suggestion of place to stop off , bars and restaurants.
Numerous guides, maps all available and again nothing too much trouble .
Such a credit to Iceland and Reykjavik, please support this local home run business.
