Neat, clean, well maintained. Easy check-in. Would’ve been a great place to view the northern lights if not for bad weather. Zero draft and well insulated. The place is neat and clean. Absolutely loved staying here.

We got the spectacular mountain view room so we could clearly see the glacier outlets. Great location for chasing the northern lights because the surroundings are farms with not much light. The food is nice. We had the signature local langoustine soup and vanilla ice cream for dinner and they were splendid. Rankes among my most favourite dishes in Iceland so far. The room is well equipped and comfortable. Good selection for breakfast.

A very nice farm stay. The scenery is breathtaking. There are hundreds of lovely sheep roaring around and maybe the most beautiful queen Cat of Iceland. The room was spacious, sparkling clean and the kitchen well equipped. We cooked our dinner and we met other fellow travellers. The owners are lovely people, unfortunately their brewery was closed in October and we did not try their beer! The breakfast was exceptional and very generous served in their amazing Brewery- Restaurant with a lot of homemade food and amazing views to the glacial!

The bed and pillows were comfortable - truly important on a long trip. Room and shower were warm enough. It was in a perfect location - close to many restaurants. The pantry was well-equipped with free-flow cereal! The full-height windows were great for us to admire the scenery when it started snowing.

    The guesthouse was absolutely spotless, and felt like a warm clean haven after a rainy day on the ring road. The breakfast was lovely, with homemade baked goods, homemade smoked salmon and fresh waffles. The host couldn’t have been more welcoming!

    Everything about this guesthouse is great! The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property! The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products. The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal. The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.
