This was a favorite stay during our travels in Iceland. The location was so pretty and quiet, the rooms and common spaces were clean, and Unnur provided a lot of useful travelling tips and local knowledge. There were games available in the common area, and free breakfast waffles in the morning. The hosts were very friendly. I only wish we could have stayed longer!

Booked this hotel as a midway point between vik and the airport. It was extremely cute and clean. The location was perfect and we were actually able to see the northern lights from the hotel.

Owners are very friendly and attentive to guests. Great breakfast. Very clean property and spacious rooms. You have to drive to get to the area as it is a little off the hiway, but mostly everyone drives and does an roadtrip anyway in Iceland. Overall Great value for money.
