The guesthouse is surrounded by pure beauty of which we were in awe. The host was so sweet and we felt safe & comfortable during our stay. We were satisfied with our room and felt like it met our needs well. It’s a great place to see the aurora, because there is no light pollution. We would definitely return. Highly recommend!

Check-in was at 4pm, we arrived at 4:15 to a “closed” sign and no one around. We then drove to the closest town to call, the host answered and told us to come back! The amount of stress we experienced due to the remote location and possibly finding a different “guest house” was not good. We went back and the women at the desk was very nice but lacked any empathy to the inconvenience. We left early to find a particular waterfall and when we return there was a gentlemen who spoke little to no English asking us to leave! Check-out was 11am and we returned to the property at 10am. We quickly showered and left.

Great little place to stay and relax. Small rooms but that is to be expected. No tv in room and breakfast is not included which was noted beforehand. A little pricier for what you are getting but overall it was a very comfortable stay.

The guesthouse location was convenient for our time in the southern coast of Iceland. We spent 2 nights there and had the end room, so there was plenty of light coming into our small room. The shower fixture was not working well, so it was difficult to take a relaxing shower and the room walls were thin, but overall we enjoyed our time at the hotel. We did not buy the breakfast, but it appeared tasty. Parkimg was ample and free. We had to take off our shoes before entering the lobby and our rooms. We were provided comfy slippers or could walk about in our socks.

Was a small guesthouse about 15-20 min driving distance from the town of Vik. Run by one woman who was very kind. Breakfast was extra and was very limited. When we arrived we were planning to have dinner at the guesthouse but we were told there was no dinner that night and so after a long day we had to drive into Vik to eat. We had to remove our shoes every time we entered. Overall was fine for 2 nights but if I return I would stay in Vik proper.

We stayed in the superior double room with private bathroom and it was lovely. Lots of space, a refrigerator and an upgraded bathroom. It was convenient to Skogafoss, Vik, Cape Dyrholeay where we saw puffins, and the Black Sand beach. This was our first stay in a "guesthouse" and I did not realize we needed to check in by 9pm and call ahead. Of course I was shocked after traveling all day to the southern coast and arriving at 11pm to find an empty front desk with a phone number to call. They were so kind though.

Enjoyed our one night stay. Check-in and check-out was quick. There was a small, common fridge and microwave that we could use. The blankets were the right thickness for the summer as we found blankets at other hotels were too hot for us for the summer. There was a nice character lounge area that we enjoyed in the evening.

I stayed in one of the single rooms, no private bathroom. The bed was very comfortable, the space was very comfortable to use as I explored the south of Iceland and it is close to many wonderful sights, and near enough to Vik for amenities. The breakfast option was an additional cost, and too expensive to be worthwhile for me. It is a no frills experience, very simple and straightforward. Check in is at 4 PM and no staff is present until then, making it a bit stressful if you arrive and don't know that.
