“Had a wonderful time - even with the rain!”
It can be difficult travelling as a threesome (mother and daughters). We were able to make this guest house home. Loved the kitchen facilities with the ability to stash our food! Loved cooking while meeting and chatting with other visitors.

“Comfy stay in a great location”
Comfortable beds, really nice shared kitchen, friendly host, good location beside a walk to a waterfall and lots of other hiking trails and short walk into the town. Had great dinner in Skaftkell. Use of laundry facilities for free a great bonus

We enjoyed our stay. We rented a room for 4, which was not spacious, but we knew it from the pictures. It was comfortable, and quiet. The common kitchen and "breakfast / dining room" was great, and very well equiped. Thanks to the team !

“A pleasant overnight stop”
Very clean property, and friendly staff. You can help yourself to hot drinks from the machine in the kitchen. Shared areas were all very clean also. We were able to do some laundry there also, which was very handy. Great location right on the water front in pretty Seydisfjordur. Rooms were bright and comfortable.

“Calm, comfortable, hospitable and well situated.”
This was a lovely, well equipped guest house. The host was welcoming and helpful, but unobtrusive. We enjoyed the camaraderie in the communal kitchen and the opportunity to interact, in passing with fellow travellers. We also enjoyed the location: the proximity to the waterfall and the lake and the quiet calm of the town.
