Beautifull place, in the green under a waterfall and near a little steam. The little houses are perfect, they make you feel at home. The staff is smiling, gentle and very helpfull. Good breakfast and nice view of the Icelandic landscape.

Our room was large and comfortable, even had a couple of chairs and an ottoman! Most of our rooms in Iceland were so small so having the opportunity to spread a bit was a very happy surprise. I got a message a few days in advance with some instructions. My key would be at the front desk with my name and they informed me they had complimentary coffee, tea, yogurt and cereals in the morning. In the message they also apologized for not offering breakfast. I was like What?! Where I come from some hotels call cereal and yogurt breakfast and charge you for it. I would have been happy with coffee alone lol! Anyway, I read somewhere they had laundry facilities available, so I was banking on doing some laundry there. When I asked where I could do my laundry and if there was an extra charge, they were a bit confused but immediately showed me to the hotel's laundry room and let me use it!! This was very nice of them. Lastly, they have the cutest garden, looks like your grandma's place.
