Small, comfortable room with a shared kitchen and bathroom, ideal for a couple of days that you plan to spend more outside than inside. It was very quiet and clean. The kitchen fridge wasn't working, but we didn't ask for it to be fixed either. We got our room cleaned daily and towels refreshed. You can request a breakfast boxe for about 3000kr (has plenty of food inside) an evening in advance, to have food prepared for adventures the next day - great idea!

We stayed here in 2017 & rebooked for Feb 2025. The guesthouse looked like it had been renovated etc. Our booking was accepted last year and we were looking forward to retuning, however a few weeks back and out of nowhere we recieved a notification saying that the guesthouse could no longer accommodate us and had cancelled our booking with no other explanation or apology. Strangely, they kept my friends booking and did not cancel their booking. When emailed and asked for an explanation, we received no reply. Our friend then emailed to confirm their booking was still available and she got a reply stating that it was. Avoid avoid avoid ! Please book somewhere which is reliable as it will save you the hassle of trying to find somewhere else to stay last minute.

I needed 1 night sleep. There is a restaurant right underneath the rooms (rooms are in 2nd flool, restaurant is on the 1st floor). Drunken folks, and the music that restaurant plays are not allowing to sleep at all till deep, deep night. Moreover, when it finally settled down with restaurant (I had to go down to the restaurant asking them to turn music down) - the fire alarm when off in different rooms (at about midnight), and then 2nd time after a while and then 3rd time...
I went down to the restaurant to asm about it (you have to go through restaurant management, since there is nobody else to contact regarding any needs or issues you have... even check in has to go through restaurant)... Anyway, I was told not to worry about the alrm it was also going on and off a nignt before!!! So, I should be happy I am not the inly one who couldn't sleep and almost has a heart attack!? Really? I tried to ask my money back and leave in a spot since I cannot sleep anyway, and it wasn't granted!!!
Moreover, shower area was dirty, aka never washed (disgusting). Also, some rioms do n9t have a shower and do not have a toilet so you woupd have to use a common shower - there is no lock in there, so anyone can walk in and see you any moment and common toilet (has a lock). I am not sure who was so nice to leave a 5 star review... This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. My father chose this place for stay... So, I sort of had choice...
P.S - the only window leaked water in after rain. Sink in the room was full of dirty water left after someone and plug was broken wo there was no way for me to let that water off (disgusting). Moreover, I noticed that sink is leaking water down on floor little by little, too... So, there are multiple issues.

Great location in a lovely valley full of hikes and hot springs. The b&b doesn’t offer any breakfast anymore but you can order a lunch box a day in advance. Rooms are very small and there is no real common area, with the kitchen doubling as laundry room. Be aware of the mosquitos.

Great place to stay, friendly, comfortable, breakfast included. Bathroom is separated but very close to the rooms. Try their coffee and cakes.

The best breakfast we had in Iceland. Rooms are very nice and clean. Beds super comfortable. We regret deeply not having the time to have dinner there, since the menu looked great. Brilliant location, can only recommend.

Hands down the best! We booked our stay on a complete whim as we wanted to stay somewhere with no cloud coverage so we can see the Northern Lights! It's about an hour away from Reykjavik and has many hot springs around the town. The town is cute and quaint, small but has a Bonus and a few restaurant options. We had room 13 (I think?) which was perfect. I loved the colors and the size was great. The Skyr Bistro downstairs was one of our best meals. Far from cheap (but what is in Iceland?) but very cozy, great bistro. Service was great. Our meals were fabulous. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here - it's along the Golden Circle, close to waterfalls and a perfect place to start or end your trip! It's about an hour from the Blue Lagoon! And we got to see the Northern Lights which was very special! Thanks!
