Bed and room nice. Location off the beaten path is great.
Walls are paper thin. Our room was next to the bathroom and we could hear ALL the bathroom noises and even woke up from them. You hear everything from the kitchen plus everyone’s door locks as well.
Window blind didn’t work as well.
Worst night in Iceland so far.

Cozy guesthouse a few kilometers off from R.1. The room is small but functional and very cosy, as are the common areas. Some sweet waffles greeted us upon arrival.
There was an outage of water in the evening - I was glad to have had some bottles of water with me.

it was a whole apartment, really comfortable, modern, clean, spacious, quiet. We went in winter and it felt like it had heated floors. The kitchen had everything to cook and they even welcomed us with waffles.

Our stay was great! Especially the people managing it. When the weather was awful (heavy storm) around Dalshöfdl and we could not continue our travel, we were welcome to book another night and were safely escorted to the nearby village by one of the owners.

We loved the setting (beautiful views, great walks to a nearby river recommended by the owners, peaceful).
The common areas (kitchen and dining room) were great.
The waffles were great too!
Check in was very easy.
Easy 45 minute drive to Skaftafell base camp.
We loved most things.
But just be aware that access is via a long gravel path, but easily driven on with a normal car.
Door locks and door mechanisms are a bit noisy so if someone opens their door in the middle of the night, then you can hear it.
Just be aware that you need to stock up on groceries or food before you come, as there are no food options within 25 minutes drive. But they have a fridge/freezer, and an oven so you can stock food.

The location is great. It’s a cute little farm, next to a glacial river and hiking trails.
It exceeded my expectations for the price point.

Perfect location on our trip around Iceland just before heading to Jökulsárlón Glacier. Accommodation was beautifully clean, warm and comfortable for our family of four. Nice extra touch with the fresh waffles on arrival, thank you.
Nothing. Wish we could have stayed a bit longer.

Location, owners very kind, beatiful house and scenery.
Very noisy, we could hear everything: lockers, kitchen, bathroom (especially fan), and neighbours . Bedrooms are not well isolated. We could not sleep well all three nights we spent there.

cleanliness and easy check in
you have to drive on gravel road for 10-15 mins to get to the property

Personal touch from the hosts with freshly made waffles and a sweet handwritten note.
The long dirt road to get to the property was the biggest downside to staying here.
