  Perfect stop for aurora watching

  Liked : Perfect location for aurora spotting. Quiet and scenic. Facilities met our expectations. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Bedroom was bigger than expected, travelling with a baby and assumed we would have to sleep in the lounge with the cot but it fit in one of the rooms

  Good value stay for south coast road trip.

  Liked : Easy check in and check out. Room was spacious and had exactly what we needed.

  Disliked : Room was not overly warm. There was no soap in the bathroom and only 3/4 of a toilet paper roll provided.

  Romantic little cottage in a great location

  Liked : The cottage was very small and romantic a bit tight for three people, but perfectly fine for one night. The staff at the main building were incredibly kind and helpful. The location is great, easy to reach, and we woke up to a beautiful view. It’s close to a small town and to all the main tourist attractions, which made our stay even more convenient.

  Disliked : The only downside is that the cottage was a bit small and not very modern, and the bathroom was really basic. However, I would still recommend this place overall.

  Liked : Self check in made our arrival flexible and comfortable (we arrived at 23). The cottage is clean and warm and in well located to reach the Seljalamdsfoss waterfalls. It is also super silent since the other cottages are far. Due to the darkness, it is also a great position to see the aurora: we had a great view!

  Liked : Excellent position with the golden circle and everything in the south easily accessed! They are indeed cute little autonomous, warm cottage houses! The northern lights were visible throughout our car travel until our arrival at the main gate, not in the cottage houses though due to light pollution. Plenty of free parking space in front of each house.

  Disliked : No towels provided, while the kitchen napkin looked like having stains. Moreover, some windows didn't have well functioning window blinds.
  Finally, as others have already pointed, it isn't easy to spot the cottages' number in the darkness and thus you may end up driving off road in the grass, shedding car headlights into the windows of the other cottage apartments in the way of finding yours, deranging them in the night. A bigger sign in front of each houses grass space would be more convenient.

  A fantastic location and the food at the restaurant was good.

  Liked : It is a very cosy cabin that was warm and secure despite a gowling tale outside.

  Disliked : The shower water went all over the floor which was not ideal.

  Liked : We really appreciated that late check-in was possible, it made our arrival stress-free. The cottage was cozy, clean, and had a nice atmosphere. The beds were very comfortable.

  Disliked : It was a bit tricky to find the cottage in the dark. We couldn’t connect to the Wi-Fi. The cottage felt a little chilly in the evening.

  Good Value Stay in Iceland

  Liked : Nice cabins with all basic equipment, with parking right in front of each cabin. Restaurant and breakfast available. I don’t understand the negative reviews — the shower was fine and quite recently renovated. Everything was clean, and the staff were kind, helpful, and polite. Simple, yet more than sufficient accommodation for our holiday in Iceland. Officially a two-star property, but it definitely meets — or even exceeds — that standard.
