La ubicación, buena para ver auroras, la zona común agradable
La poca flexibilidad de los dueños, cometí un error al realizar la reserva y solicité cambio de fechas o devolución de la reserva 30 minutos después de que finalizase el plazo, la solicitud no fue tomada en cuenta, finalmente tuve que coger 2 habitaciones individuales para el día siguiente de la reserva en vez de una doble, pagando además el sobrecoste. No tuvieron ninguna consideración
El baño y ducha en condiciones bastante precarias

Grote kamer met groot bed in nette staat. De verwarming zorgde er ook voor dat de kamer snel warm was.
De communicatie over de check-in en check-out was zeer duidelijk. Late check-in was mogelijk wat ook goed uitkwam omdat we een late vlucht hadden.
De guesthouse is ook gezellig aangekleed binnen en buiten.
De vloer in de badkamer werd volledig nat bij het douchen omdat het douchegordijn te kort was.

Such a beautiful location and really nice accommodation. We stayed for a night on our road trip and it was super peaceful. The lady working was so so lovely and helpful.
The hot tub wasn’t heating up! Although I must say, the lady working there tried to help but it appeared some other guests had left the lid off so it wasn’t the fault of the property!
8.0
Unique accommodation in a quiet farm, surrounded by horses. Very "home-like" feeling to it.
No toiletries in the bedroom, which we were not prepared for.
7.0
Quiet place, nearby the main ring road (1). As the place is actually a horse farm, possibility of horse riding was provided (to be paid on top).
Only cold breakfast served. The access road to the location (2 km) is gravel and bumpy - our car was not ready for this.

Super nice staff! Beautiful entryway, dining room/common room, and deck. The guesthouse is located on the property of a horse farm. They have dozens of beautiful Icelandic horses, which were so much fun to watch! Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to arrange a horse ride, but apparently that is available for a fee. The overall price for a room is super inexpensive compared to other properties in Iceland.
While the entry and dining/common room look like they were very recently built, the wing with the bedrooms looks like it was built decades ago using cheap construction methods (e.g., vinyl wall panels, exposed pipes in the bathrooms). The bedrooms are very clean but extremely bare bones. They didn’t provide soap or shampoo or any other toiletries. This was definitely the most basic accommodation I’ve experienced in Iceland out of dozens of accommodations (three trips totaling over six weeks).

Excellent location, close to many sites. Horse farm in this place.
The room was not clean, a very uncomfortable shower. Very poor breakfast, there were no vegetables and eggs.

Everything was great. We followed exactly the instructions shared and we reached the property without any issues. It is very warm and cosy. The breakfast is very nice too.

This cozy little guesthouse is surrounded by horse fields, and it was a lot of fun to watch young horses playing. The building itself is a part of a farm and it feels like the guesthouse is built from old stables which was a fun experience :) The beds are comfortable, also we had a private bathroom which was simple but nice. The "Social area" in this guesthouse is super-cozy with comfy sofas, a heater and a perfectly working guitar. There is also a nice terrace with BBQ, but it was snowing so we couldn't enjoy it.
The garbage bin in our private bathroom was not cleaned after previous guests and was full. The shared kitchen was a bit messy after previous guests who used it, but in general was ok.

This is a lovely place where you get to sit in a hot tub and look at beautiful Icelandic horses! The rooms are very clean, the breakfast is fantastic, and the common room is nice and cozy. It's a bit out of the way but highly recommended!

This was a unique stay. We had never stayed at a horse farm and were not sure what to expect. The rooms were perfect for what we were looking for. Our rooms were small and had a shared bath which we didn't mind at all. The property was very organized and quiet. There is a hot tub on the outdoor deck which we really enjoyed during the night. Breakfast was quick, simple, and easy. It's definitely a place you would want to book if you are just looking for a good night's sleep and some downtime.

Nicely placed in a quiet area with some walking possible nearby. Good standard room and private bathroom.
The need to take off shoes at the entrance made us feel a bit like at a hostel rather than a guesthouse but that was a minor inconvenience. No staff was there when we arrived, and then we realized that someone sitting in the lobby was actually the staff... we had no contacts with them though. It wasn't clear if we were allowed to use the kitchen or supposed to leave the dishes on the tables (or do our own dishes). A bit more clarity about the rules would be great to have posted.

The rooms are very quiet and cosy. Great location. Beautiful place.
There's only 1 bathroom/shower for 12-15 guest, which is waay not enough

Nice guesthouse, close to horses ans sheeps, in a farm in the middle of nowhere. Very quiet. Jacuzzi was welcome after a tour in Snaefellsnes. The guesthouse personal was nice.
The bed was broken when we arrived. Hopefully they repaired it quickly and efficiently.
