    The room is a bit too warm when the door is closed, it might help in winter time but could be a bit annoying in summer. Bathroom is a little too basic.

    Nice little guesthouse. Our room is small and equipped with a basic bathroom. Location in a farm area. It's not a far drive from the ring road. Breakfast is ok, but good for the price.

    Gorgeous cabins! View and walking the property. Got to see a baby lamb being born! The farmer was so inviting to have us come in to the barn! Food was delicious! Have the dinner. So good.

    If I was to be very critical the access to the chalet was a little awkward with heavy bags, being down either short steep slope or fairy narrow staircase. We were also unlucky in having several children, from the neighbouring chalet, burning off their energy in front of our chalet for a couple of hours. However this was not the owners fault and on the second night they had left and so we could fully enjoy the views over the ice sheet and listen to the birds.

    We had our own chalet set apart from the house and the other residential block with only one other chalet as a near neighbour. This provided an excellent outlook. The constant accompaniment of bird calls was a real treat too. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast offered plenty of choice.

    The approach road to reach the property is not paved so could be a bit challenging if it is snow covered.

    This was the best stay of our entire Iceland trip. We had booked the private washroom rooms and those are just across the main reception area. Fantastic room with super scenic views of the surrounding. We got to see northern lights at this location. Dinner provided by the hotel was super tasty. Staff was also very friendly.

    They could have added some more options on the bread for people who don't/can't eat dairy and meat, there was only jam..But they don't have lots of options in iceland i think.. The room was very warm, too warm. I missed a couch in the common area (to sit after dinner) but in the summer you have chairs outside.

    nice surroundings, nice staff, good diner and breakfast with fresh bread (i asked for some dairy free products and there was crusli, egg, jam and oat milk). bed was comfy. Good value for your money, since breakfast was included.

    The windows of the cabin were not clean, and one of the glass windows was broken. Also the room was very cold and so was the bathroom

    Staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was great, we had great views of both the sea and the glacier. It it is very secluded so we decided to dine there and the food was amazing the lamp is from the Farm and the tomato soup was delicious I think is one of the best meals we had in our stay in Iceland

    The sink in the room is way too small. That’s a type of a sink in the toilet for the purpose of washing hands after using the toilet, not for washing face or brushing teeth.

    A nice guesthouse in the middle of nowhere. It’s surrounded by the field, the mountains and the ocean. A perfect place to admire the spectacular northern light at midnight. Very friendly and helpful staff. The food was so good.

    Loved the breakfast spread. Dinner was great too, you have to try the fresh lamb burger. This guesthouse was very cozy and well kept. The owner was around and very helpful with planning trips to the glaciers. Would recommend to anyone exploring the glacier lagoon/Hofn area.

    Because of the strong wind it was a little bit noisy so we didn’t get much sleep

    We stayed in the bungalow and it was so nice. The bungalow was big and clean. The breakfast and dinner were great!
