We stayed at 3 guesthouses during our 7 day Iceland trip. This is the best one of the three. Room is clean, curtains block out enough sun

The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. The listing details say no parking available, but there was plenty of parking. Everything was clean. I would stay here again!

The bathrooms are very clean and spacious. The common area/kitchen is large and very nice! We stayed in the junior double room. I know from the pictures it looks very small but I wasn’t expecting to hardly be able to walk around in it. Once our suitcases were in, we hardly had any room to walk around the bed. We were only staying one night and didn’t spend a lot of time in the room so I wasn’t a big deal but if you’re staying longer, definitely get a bigger room.

We were given instructions on self-check in even when we arrived early. The whole guesthouse is cozy, clean & neat. It is 5 min walk to the grocery store. Shared bathroom is clean. Beddings are in good condition ( firm mattress & good duvet ) The downside is noise disturbance. We can hear the door opening /closing & footsteps to the washroom.

We had a room on the second floor and there was no elevator. The whole house smelled pretty bad since they use the underground thermal water for bathrooms I guess.

I really liked this place. The employees were helpful and friendly. They have a bonus nearby if you want to buy some food for the mornings or nights when everything is closed. They have kitchen to make food even when it is closed. The showers and bathrooms are separated from the actual bedrooms which is fine. I had a good experience.
