Very clean place that's convenient for an early morning flight out of the Keflavik Airport (though driving distance). All necessary amenities provided. Shared bathroom is in a different cottage. A little chilly to get from our cottage to the restroom but takes 30 seconds so not too bad. All facilities, including restroom and kitchen, are very clean and well-stocked as well. Easy to find even in the night, and ample parking.

Nice modern accommodation, very close to the airport. Car is required to access restaurants, shopping etc. But there is a common kitchen area that could be used for meal preparation. We did not receive a welcome e-mail about self checkin/checkout but problem was promptly resolved with a phone call.

This was a really nice, laid back stay. I would definitely come here again. It’s close to the airport as well as other sights to see. Not too far from many things, like the volcano, hiking, geothermal pools, historic sites, etc. There isn’t much going on in town this is in, but that’s okay! It’s peaceful and beautiful.

This is not place where you can stay with family. There is no microwave, no fridge. A single cup wasn’t available to drink water. I have requested a late check out but someone was knocking the door at 11.27 AM

Be mindful to check in time for the lockbox code. I have missed this and an email the night before as well as an Expedia message wasn't answered. Also, no answer on the phone during the day and no return call but finally we managed at 4 pm to get hold of somebody whilst ready escalating the issue to Expedia.
