"This a lovely place to stay complete with restaurant and brewery/distillery. We had a lovely relaxing stay and it is only a few miles from BORGARFJÖRÐUR EYSTRI where you can see lots of puffins up close!"
"The hostel is good. The rooms are equipped with the essentials and are mostly clean. The common areas could have been cleaner though. The kitchen is not so well equipped. The staff were very friendly and helped immediately with any problems. I would recommend the hostel for a short stay."
"AMAZING. The staff were super accommodating and welcoming. I was technically late for supper, but they still provided me with THE BEST lamb dinner (sooo much food was provided, and every bite had my mouth watering). The property was beautiful, and the hot tub/sauna were perfect after a long day of traveling. Met some wonderful people who quickly became friends. Would 100% recommend to anyone passing by this area."
"Loved this Guesthouse. Owner was super friendly and breakfast was wonderful. The room was modern and clean and very comfortable. Loved the bathroom also. Would stay here again!"
