Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is in a stunning location, surrounded by trees and rivers, offering a peaceful escape close to nature. Rooms are comfortable , with a kettle and washbasin, while bathrooms are shared among two bedrooms.Breakfast is included ( very basic - cereals , breads and fruits ) and served in the common restaurant, and dinner is available at extra cost, though vegetarian options are limited ( only 1 ). Staff could be more welcoming—we were reminded about breakfast timing in a rather curt way. Also, having a small common area with a fridge or microwave would be a great addition, considering the remote location. Overall, the location is unbeatable (10/10), but service and amenities could be improved.

Friendly staff which seems to be a common trait for Iceland. Cabin was small but extremely clean and bright and comfortable. Same for the bathroom. Included breakfast was served in a very pretty small sunroom type restaurant. The breakfast was of high quality although it didn’t have as many choices as we saw other places. I don’t think there was any hot entree. Overall we were happy with our stay.

Kleines Holzhäuschen, sehr gemütlich, sehr sauber und für 3 Personen genug Platz. Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten vorher angerufen, weil wir regulären Check-In zeitlich nicht halten konnten. War alles unproblematisch und lief reibungslos. Frühstück war prima, etwas rustikal, aber genau passend. Möglichkeit im Restaurant zum Abendessen vorhanden. Kann das Guesthouse uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. In der Nähe liegt ein Canyon, der absolut sehenswert ist. Hatten diesen noch nach unserem Check-In aufgesucht und waren quasi alleine dort. Herrlich!

Guesthouse was clearly old but maintained. Ordered two single bed rooms and got a double room. Heat wasn’t working at the time (manager told us that they checked it and it was working). Rooms are very small and hot water runs out quickly. Breakfast was meager, some bread, fruits, veggies, and cereal. A bit overpriced in my opinion.

A lot of potential but lacking when we were there

Room was very basic and a bit tired. The shower tray did not drain sufficiently quickly so there was a risk that it flooded. I reported it on leaving so hopefully it will be fixed for the next guests. We ate dinner at the restaurant one night and it was very good indeed. It was such a shock how bad the breakfast was. (I don't really understand how a lot of people said that it was great). It doesn't take much effort to put butter or other spreads in a bowl or dish but they were served straight from the packet or jar. Surprised that there were no eggs (not even boiled eggs which would have been simple to prepare). And a limit of just one type of cheese and meat.

The property backs up to a butte with adorable sheep grazing and 2 minutes from a famous canyon. It is peaceful and beautiful. The staff are extremely friendly and the breakfast was perfect and light. A very pleasant experience 10/10 recommend.
