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.

Room and kitchen were clean, but the property ran out of hot water by the time we want to take shower. The staff could have been more responsive on this. If you need to take showers, do it right when you arrive.

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.

The room was ok with all the necessary items but no hangers or anywhere you can hang the clothes. It is better to fix the shower as 1: water overflows as I don’t think the floor is sloped 2; the current shower head in the shower room opposite room 58, could really hurt someone when you not carefully holding it, the metal cracks is very dangerous.

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.

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?

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.
