We stayed in one of the cabins and there was plenty of room for the 3 of us. Comfortable accommodations. The area is beautiful and quiet. Staff were helpful and breakfast was great. We only stayed 1 night on our trip around the ring road but we would have been comfortable staying here much longer.

It was quiet and peaceful. The cottage was a bit warm and there were no screens on the windows, so we had to close the windows so bugs wouldn't come in. It was clean and the staff were very good .

Bare basic property. Note posted that only so much hot water will be available. No black out curtains. Curtain would be nice to have on the front door window too. Tiny shower. No frills. Nice receptionists. Clean room.

Great place to stay. Staff are all kind and wonderful. Only frustration is that price for breakfast advertised on Expedia is very wrong and is actually over double. 30.000+ vs 15.000 ISK.
