We needed to ask for a special instructions to check in, because we were getting there so late. The staff was so kind and left the instructions that were very easy to follow, I talked to them the next morning. Everything was great. It was a delicious breakfast and a great kickoff for our long drive back to Reykjavík.

Simple clean rooms with private baths only ~20-30 mins to Myvatn sites or Husavik (in other direction). The staff were friendly and helpful providing good suggestions for area hikes. The buffet breakfast was hearty with great variety - plus it was included in the price.
