We were here in October 2017. Hotel was nice, had a shared kitchen that we didn't use. Can walk to a few restaurants nearby. There was a hot tub that was shared as well. We only stayed one night so we didn't try it out. It was a little difficult to find the place, and once we did we weren't sure about the parking situation. But we figured it out. The place was nice and clean. Would stay here again.

Sehr gut ausgestattes Guesthouse

Das Guesthouse ist in einem hervorragenden Zustand und in allen Bereichen absolut sauber. Die Ausstattung geht über das erwartbare Maß deutlich hinaus. Vor allem die Sanitäreinrichtungen sind vorbildlich, aber auch die zusätzlichen Angebote wie Hot-Pot bereichern den Aufenthalt. Der Empfang war überaus freundlich.

Hands down, Best place we stayed in Iceland!!

We first went to the other guesthouse but then the owner was kind enough to personally come pick us up. Then we were checked into our room which was nice & spacious. The bathroom were shared but were in immaculate condition. It rather felt like home than a hotel. The host is super awesome. She even did the laundry for us & when I went to pay, she said it was on the house. The guesthouse offers a fully equipped kitchen. This place combines a hotel & AirBnB. The host go above & beyond to make you feel comfortable. We stayed in quite a few places in Iceland but this is the best of all. Highly recommended!
