The room was very nice with its private bathroom. Everything was very clean. The free breakfast was simple (cold spread) but had everything we wanted (eggs, veggies, yogurt etc.). The best thing is the farm dog called Saga. She comes to greet you and play with you, and goes hiking with you! There's a nice hiking track just behind the farm.

This was the comfiest bed I slept in on my trip to Iceland! They had a cute very friendly dog. There are horses too. The rooms were large and clean. Unfortunately I didn’t see the northern lights but it would be the perfect location for it. There are four rooms and two bathrooms. A cute kitchen where there is everything you need to make meals. They also provide a restaurant recommendation on the paper in the guest house.

Everything was super new, it seems that this place has just started operating very recently. All the furniture including the kitchen tools are very new which is a plus. The view from the big window of the glacier was also one of the highlights. I would rate this place as one of the best accommodations we've booked on our ring road trip.

An incredible place! This is where we saw a mind-blowing display of the Northern Lights. It's really worth it to book a room with a view to the glacier, it was one of the best views we've ever had in a hotel room. And we were also able to admire the Northern Lights from the comfort of our room :)

The rooms are fairly new, and spacious! Very comfy wool blakets and chairs and good wifi, it was actually nice to spend our evenings in the room after a long day of driving and hiking around. The dinner and breakfasts were ok, but not outstanding to write about.

Excellent guesthouse. Very clean and beautiful place. The staff is friendly and approachable. Dinner was very good, portions are big and prices are razonable. Breakfast is also great, with plenty of options. The best thing is the view of the glacier, the location is definitely unbeatable.
