This is setup as a guesthouse (think bed and breakfast in the USA). The hosts were warm. We stayed in the family room which was small but big enough for 2 kids and 2 adults with comfortable beds. The room view was great. There is a nice kitchen that is shared with free coffee/tea and a fridge too. They also have a coffee/café below the guesthouse. We didn’t try it because we were trying to save money by cooking ourselves (restaurants are quite pricey in Iceland).

We stayed in the family room and it had a really lovely view. The kitchen was well stocked and all was clean. What we didn't like was the over-the-top decor: Buddhas and other religious icons everywhere, angels, Christmas lights, elephants, etc. It was not a neutral setting and if we would have known what a busy atmosphere this was, we would most likely have chosen somewhere else to stay. Also the hallway smelled like incense, likely from the coffee shop below where the decor continued.

The room we had was advertised as 'bright'. Sort of... if you turn all the lights on. The window in the room was painted over (with another building almost adjacent) so no view or natural light. For ventliation... a tiny vent so the room became extremely stuffy. The room next door is similar I believe. Calling it a bright room and not pointing out the lack of window and the poor ventlation seems to verge on deception, in my opinion.

Homey atmosphere! Nice location! Only drawback is that the other couple across our room stayed longer than necessary in the kitchen even after their dinner with wine (like fine dining) that takes a long time. They even played chess in the kitchen table giving us no time to eat our meals in the kitchen.There should be time limit on using shared kitchen and shared bathroom.

Comfy, homey place to stay. Room was a bit warm due to no ventilation but that’s typical for Iceland. Host was nice and really friendly. Full kitchen and good size fridge if you need to prepare food. Shared bathroom was spacious and clean. It was shared between 4 rooms.

We had the family room where we had our own bathroom. The shower is small but ok. Shared kitchen with the other rooms which I didn't know beforehand. Great view from the family room. The other room we got with a window opened to a stock room so it wasn't as comfortable.

Great stay largely because of how warm and welcoming the accommodations and owners were. They really went the extra mile to make a great experience. The cafe downstairs was great as well with a beautifully unique feel to it. Waking up to mountain views is pretty great as well.
