Reviews
No negative comments come to mind, the owner greets you with a smile and after a long day travelling around Iceland nothing feels better than a cozy feeling of going to a place that feels like home.
Loved the decoration, the views to the sea, the rooms, the comfy beds and warmth in the rooms.
There is complementary bread and coffee or tea, I think some jam too although I did not have any, it looked delicious.
All in all if you want to stay in the area please do yourself a favor and stay here.
One small thing would be to put a bit more soap in the toilet for showering but aside from this it was a 10/10 experience
The room was ready and wasn't missing anything important. It was also clean and warm. There are 2 shared bathrooms, both clean and warm. Shared kitchen is absolutely top! It offers so rich equipment, there is literally everything! They don't serve breakfast but they allowed us to use some groceries from fridge (toast bread, jams, butter...). From the dinning room is nice view to ocean. Parking is free right at the guesthouse.
There is also TV and some desk games, books and piano.
We were lucky and we were completely alone in the guesthouse so it was very quiet too. I can recommend this place!
