Hotel is very easy to find as it's positioned just to the main road. Room was very spacious (biggest one we had on the whole trip) and breakfast was very nice.

We had a really pleasant stay at this hostel. Ola, the housekeeper, was extremely friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The hostel itself was well-equipped and clean, which made it a comfortable place to stay. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a clean and welcoming place to stay.

An authentic Icelandic experience. I saw the Aurora Borealis in front of the house. The host is a very kind lady. You must also see the attic of the house where you can drink your morning coffee. A welcoming house with a very good vibe.

Very nice guesthouse, located 40 min from Diamond beach and Glietcher lagoon. Ideal for one night stay. Our room was spacious, worm and with nice views. The breakfast is rich and delicious. If you don’t arrive late you can have a dinner- the lamb from their farm was soo delicious.

We had dinner here as well. I usually don't expect much from hotel restaurants, but this time, I was pleasantly surprised—it was actually good. The rooms were quite spacious, and the overall interior of the hotel was interesting. I would also recommend taking one of the excursions offered by Glacier Journey. Their office is conveniently located right next to the hotel

The house is extremely clean, nicely decorated and furnished with new and beautiful pieces of furniture. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The host are kind, available and extremely helpful. The atmosphere in the house is lively and cozy at the same time. The homemade breakfast is delicious and filling. Many typical Icelandic dishes available.
