"We loved our stay here! Everyone was so helpful and kind, and the rooms were clean and tody. The option to have dinner on-site was extremely appreciated after a long day of traveling, and I was impressed with options and how tasty everything was! The view as well from both the front and back windows was stunning. My only slight critique would be with the window in our room - it seemed to have a broken latch so it didn't quite shut the window flush to the wall which caused wind to whistle as it passed through the cracked seal. Overall, however, the positives of the location outweighed the window! I would definitely choose this hotel again! "
"This might be the nicest hotel we’ve stayed in. We got the quadruple room, with the second floor loft. Room was spacious and clean. Breakfast buffet was plentiful. Property was in great shape. There are restaurants, shopping, and a grocery store a short walk away. Highly recommend. "
"Wow! What a gem! This was a fav hotel as it was so clean and comfortable. The rooms were spotless and the private bathroom was large and modern. In the evening, the bar in the hotel was amazing! Filip the bar manager had multiple Icelandic draft beers available and dreamy cocktails that were so creative! There were even happy hour discounts on drinks too! The breakfast spread was vast. Eggs, multiple meats, juices, fruit, etc. They even allow guests to use the digital coffee machine that dispenses pretty much any type of coffee beverage you want—latte, mocha, espresso, etc. You can’t go wrong with a stay here!!"
"Great hotel. Clean, ground floor rooms with private patio. Breakfast was excellent and service is top notch. Nothing to complain about at all. Highly recommended."
"My biggest regret of the trip is only spending one night here. The room was spacious but it t was bright and we could hear the neighbors.
We were greeted with a freshly baked cake upon arrival. The studio was large with a well stocked kitchen. Kitchen appliances, cups and cutlery, salt and pepper and all the spices you could want in the main kitchen. The he beds were perfect and the river stone shower was unique. There is a cold tub and a hot tub, as well.
The two dogs make the perfect tour guides around the property, just play tug of war first. They guided me to the water fall and the dairy. A short walk away is the bra fence and a cave. Across the street is a lagoon. The wind is noticeably calmer at this location. It was a real treat to stay there and multiple days would be the move."
