The room was comfortable and cozy. The lobby has a coffee/tea station with biscuits and fruit available almost 24/7, which was a nice touch. The breakfast is really good. There are two hot tubs open until 10 pm, perfect for relaxing. The hotel itself feels very warm and welcoming, and since it’s located in a darker area, we were even lucky enough to catch some northern lights right from there!

Excelent services, very nice rooms in the new part of the hotel, very clean and comfortable rooms large enough for several days stay. There was a nice outside swimming pool with two hot baths nearby. The staff was very heplful and pleasant. The breakfast was rich and good. There was a small problem with suplying of the breakfast on our first day around 9 am. Probably we came just after some large group had left and there was a lot of old dishes on the tables, almost no new food, no clean dishes and also no sfaff for a few minutes. But it was sorted soon and everything went perfectly then. We liked the place near the hot springs and also quite close to the main road. Despite of that the place was quiet even during the nights.

We loved everything about this place. The room was huge, clean, quite, warm and comfortable, with a view on a field with mountains. The staff was very friendly, the breakfast was exceptional, During northern light they switched off the lights, so there was no light polution, Additional bonus from the hotel was that they had a horse stables and the one was able to go there, pet them take a photos, and it was absolutely relaxing, Loved it

Having to 'get around Ring Road' definitely has its drawbacks. The biggest one we found was when you found a great place, your time there was limited. We did stop for the Lava Show in Vik, which was great, and we had dinner there as well. There was not enough time to really see everything before having to move on.

The waters and views of the glaciers viewed from a far are beautiful. Also some of the little food places reflect the cosiness of a working port. Quaint working port village. Worth a stop or basing yourself there to visit the surrounding geography.

Iceland is a very expensive place to travel and this guest house was average price for Iceland but the quality of the rooms were low average. Our room had such a bad slope on it we had to sleep at the other end of the bed with our heads above our feet. The bathroom had a toilet in the middle of the room, you had to walk around it to get to the shower and even though the room came with breakfast included it was very poor quality.

Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.
