We thought this place had a decent room and shared kitchen area, although only one out of the two stoves turned on when my husband and I were cooking. The shared bathroom situation was a bit of a challenge for me since I'm in my third trimester, and to get there I had to go through three doors and a brightly lit hallway in the middle of the night. All in all, it's a good place to sleep if you can get through the night without having to pee.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort

Not even close to advertised

Misleading pictures and descriptions. The geo thermal pool is a block away and community, not on site and you have to pay. The bathrooms were tiny, dirty and the woman’s room had no lock. Most dispensers had no paper towel and the overall feel was grimy.

Yuck ! Worst place we have stayed in Iceland. Toilet room stuck of mould and sewage. Really weird , mouldy shower. Small room. Bad vibes all round. We hated it so much we cancelled our second night and booked elsewhere, thus, loosing the cost of the room. Complete dive!

No hooks in the room to leave jackets or wet towels. Not enough pots and pans for the size of the guesthouse plus one of the stoves did not work. In the showers, nowhere to hang your towel, or your clothes. All of the above are simple fixes that would upgrade the guesthouse.

While the property is safe, there were too many spiders in the room. If you are scared of them, this may not be a place to sleep.

Disliked: Staff & service
Only stayed one night instead of two. Floors were dirty. Some of our group were uncomfortable staying in a room opposite of where the shared bath and shower facilities were located. The other guests were loud. The surrounding area seemed off the beat and track, but not bad. Parking was available nearby. I did call staff to try to ask about nearby laundry facilities and restaurants. I started by saying that I knew they did not have laundry services, but the person just got upset with me and said "we do not have that" and hung up on me. I tried to call back but never got anyone to answer the phone after that. Very rude. Very frustrating.

Suggestion: Please provide a note with email as well as the phobe number for cobtact in the foyer and state that they have an open wifi connection for which allows for email to be sent ( especially for foreign ttravellers.) Very happy overall!

Stressful check-in. The host was not responsive. They never sent the check-in instruction email and when I followed up via messaging them on Expedia repeatedly, they never responded. We had to call Expedia customer service (which required activating roaming service on our phone) and get them contact the property manager/host and even then they sent the passcode 1 hour after the original start time for of check-in. The stay itself went ok with no particular problem. Overall, a decent stay given its lower price range.

The code was sent to us in the afternoon on the day of our check-in. (We read multiple reviews saying they did not receive the code, so we were concerned, but we didnt have any issue!). The room was spacious for four people. Blackout curtains worked really well. The shower room was close by, and there were washers as well (we did not use it). Kitchen was kept clean, and we were able to warm up our food in microwaves, and keep food in the fridge overnight. Overall, a very excellent stay. Thank you!

Stayed here for the 2nd night during our Iceland trip on the way back to Reykjavik. The code for self-check in was sent the day before. We were in the exact same room again. The room was clean, the shower room worked well, the kitchen was spacious and equipped with two sets of everything (sinks, ovens, stoves, microwaves, fridges, etc). Spacious dining areas with plenty of tables and chairs. Our room was really warm (June) without even turning on the heater. We actually needed to keep the window open to stay cool. The room had nice blackout curtains as well. A little sink in the room was super convenient. Overall, an excellent guesthouse. Thank you!
