Really amazing location and the rooms are great! (we had a cottage) lots of hikes around - we decided to do an off the course hike to a waterfall close by. The hosts were very understanding especially as we travelled with kids - even kept the breakfast open late for us. The breakfast was great as well, given most places offered the bare minimum

I loved the comfortable bed, kitchen with dishwasher, loft area with the chairs, the high level of cleanliness, very kind owner and the location in Kalfafellsstadur on a farm. It is very dark so it is a great spot to see the Northern Lights

This is guesthouse with simple room facilities, but it was clean, and most importantly, we managed to see the aurora from our room itself so that was great! It was also worth it to get the mountain facing rooms - the view would have been very different as the other set of rooms face the carpark.

The house was very warm and beautifully decorated. Both the room and the bathroom were very clean. The shared kitchen had everything you need. The house has two floors with a shared bathroom per floor. There are three to four rooms on each floor. The shared bathroom had everything you need (shampoo, toilet paper, etc.). Towels are also provided for each guest. Even though we arrived late and the restaurant was closing, they welcomed us and served us delicious soup (meat soup and fish soup). The breakfast was also very good. I recommend the accommodation for the friendly atmosphere, the food and the cleanliness.
