It’s a bed and breakfast, but breakfast cost extra? We didn’t have breakfast there, but someone use our room or my name for breakfast. Staff was nice, but most amenities will cost extras. Very nice view and cute shared area and patio. Very strong sulfur smell in shower. Still like this place a lot, it was a really cute idea hotel/bed and breakfast place to stay.

We totally enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, food delicious and room very comfortable. It was a treat to be able to watch Icelandic horses in the fields from the windows of our room.

Beautiful and peaceful place ! Highly recommend

A nice guesthouse/small boutique hotel

Great location for exploring the southern coast, and the property is clean with beautiful views. Our cabin was sandwiched between the communal parking lot out front and an active construction site out back, complete with exposed septic infrastructure and loose wiring. The construction lights also impacted stargazing and northern lights viewing. The advertised hot tub turned out to be communal, attached to the reception building, and far enough from the cabins that you need to drive there. WiFi was weak in the cabin. The accommodation felt tired and cramped for a family of five. Mattresses were uncomfortable, and supplies were stingy: two toilet paper rolls for five people over four nights, and no shampoo or conditioner, just body wash. Every other place we stayed in Iceland covered the basics. Extra-fee signage throughout added to a transactional feel. The breakfast is marketed as a highlight (and priced at around $100 for five). Ours wasn’t. Tomatoes and cucumbers were past their best, bacon was undercooked and fatty, fruit was unripe, and the muffins tasted off enough that the kids each tried one and stopped. We’d had a nearly identical spread at Efstidalur that was genuinely our favorite breakfast in Iceland. Go there instead. We left after one night of a four-night stay. The front desk comped the breakfast, which was kind. A partial refund for unused nights would have gone further, but wasn’t offered.

Breakfast was Amazing, a lot of choices, The Room Was Warm and cozy

This place was not what I expected reading about it. Check in was fine but the person at the reception insisted we leave our shoes in the front. They do not provide courtesy slippers and so we had to walk in our socks to the room. They have a motley basket of slippers, which I’m not wearing! God knows whose feet were in them before me. Half were grungy travel slippers. The room had no shampoo or conditioner. Hot water took awhile to come. As we were the only people, the staff had breakfast setup in a small frig in the dining room. We could have it anytime between 7-10 am! This place had more dos and don’t s than amenities. At least the bed was clean and we could sleep for the night.

Convenient

Hotel is very dated. The room looks different from the photos.

Beautiful setting, very nice place but too many rules. Also, be forewarned, no televisions in the room and the lounge tv is large but on such a low volume that it is practically worthless. Nice breakfast.
