We had a great stay at the property. It’s conveniently located on our way to Hofn. Check in was seamless. Room is clean and bed is comfortable. There’s a small kitchen area to cook for dinner and breakfast.

Cabins stay was very nice and cute. Only thing I would say is the bedding could have been cleaner. There was pieces of hair in my bed from a previous tenant.

View is amazing, the place is very nice, we loved it. It would have been nice to have a microwave but we managed. The hot water is limited so we would get wet turn the water off to soap up then rinse off again to ensure we both had hot water. I would recommend this place to people.

This was by far my favorite stay! The location was perfect, close to great restaurants, and the place was spotless. The view from my room was amazing, and I especially loved the heated floors in the bathroom —they were such a nice touch.
I definitely recommend this place to others!
