Great clean property. Was able to get a taxi at 5AM right to the airport. Use the taxi service they suggest as it’s timely and a reasonable price. Was about $50 to get to the airport which isn’t bad considering others were quoting $100+

Perfect stop for our last night before we flew home the next morning! Super clean, the shared kitchen was really nice to have access to. The room was nice and simple, but cozy, decorated tastefully and the view from our window was beautiful looking right at the lupines.

It was perfect for one night before an early flight the next day. Check in was easy, the room was clean and spacious after spending 2 weeks in a tent. The kitchen facilities were excellent with hob, microwave, kettle, dishwasher and pots and pans etc. Everything you needed to cook a meal. There was lots of leftover food and gas canisters in the cupboards for you to use and food in the fridge. There was a ridiculous amount of jars of coffee that had been started but not used up! Great place to end your holiday (and if you started it here you would save a fortune on gas and food if you are planning to camp!)

The cleanness of the cabin and shared bathroom are far beyond my expectations. We had troubles on self check-in but got quick response via messages and the staff later stopped by.

Nice location near the airport. Would be nice if the room has a big bedside table, or an extra table/shelf to put stuff on.

Such a fun modern lace to stay. The shower was heavenly and the soaps smelled fantastic. The cabin was surrounded by lupine and it was just beautiful. I loved every bit of our short stay.

Fantastic first night in Iceland!

Our iStay cottage was clean and simple. A great first night in Iceland. The view out our windows of the lupine was beautiful. It looked a bit like Animal Crossing in the best way! What is not mentioned is the property has a fully stocked common room - kitchen and dining area. Designed for preparing meals, refrigerator and cabinet space.
