Wonderful staff, kind greeting, incredible views, waterfall just behind the properties and upgraded to a house for our party of five. Highly recommend and would stay again.
We had a family room and there was enough space for the 4 of us. There were 2 bathrooms on our floor which were clean and remodeled. Kitchen area was spacious and well equipped. Could do with some new pots and pans though. All in all a good budget stay with basic kitchen facilities if you want to stay close to the glacier lake.
This property was quite overpriced for what you actually got. The restaurant at the guesthouse was really quite good. But the accommodations were noisy and quite tired.

Very old and scratched up kitchen utensils, check in desk far away from guesthouse, small bathrooms and rooms, overly expensive.
The staff were extremely helpful, and although our reserved room was not available, they were gracious and accommodating. I highly recommend this property--the rooms were clean and comfortable, the service was warm and friendly.
It was a little challenging to find the place to check in for the cottage since it's not right next to the cottage itself. The cottage was quiet and had a full kitchen to make your own food or access to the restauant where we checked in.

We had a large family room for 4 (you could easily fit more young children if co-sleeping). Common kitchen had other travelers making breakfast and chatting. (Keep in mind there's no food available at this location.) No problems waiting for the shared shower. Self-checking with code 24/7.

Big issue is shared bathroom with 4 other rooms potentially 8 people. Read check in thoroughly. Check in 2.5 km in different hotel. I’d suggest this venue is a hostel as compared to the guest house

Cheap accomodation near Jökulsarlon.
Heating in our room didn't work properly, in one shower was No warm water (thankfully there were several showers)
Perfect for a overnight stay while travelling the ring road.
Nice room with a deck, from which we saw the northern lights. Proximity to Jokulsarlon was the biggest factor for us to book there. Nearby guesthouse has restaurant, where we had a nice dinner. Shared bathrooms is the only drawback of this particular property
Very close to glaciers. Loved separate cabin. Friendly and helpful staff that was willing to wait for our late check in. Oh, and we had 2 private waterfalls coming out of the mountains behind us…how can you beat that?
Beware of shared bathrooms and kitchen here which were not mentioned on the booking page. Has a washer but no dryer, what a joke. Kind of dated and noisy.
