  : Beautiful location, very comfortable appartment with a stunning view, friendly host, village with cafs and supermarket nearby.
  : The road in front was a bit busier than we expected, due to several campsites further up.

  : The guesthouse was a great place for us to stay during our time in Southern Iceland. The bed and bedding/pillows were very comfortable. We booked with studio apartment which had bunk beds that we didn't need so I can't speak to the comfort of those. The location was great for accessing activities and sights in between Hella and Vik which is where we spent our time while staying here. The kitchen setup worked well for our needs and had all appliances we needed. There was no coffee or tea provided though which is usually expected at any stay. The host was kind and helped us check-in late and answer our questions.
  : I felt the images made the property seem larger than it was, since the images featured all rooms/suites not just ours. So I thought we would have a larger space. Also the bathroom was not great, the shower shut off quickly and it wasn't very new or clean, not my most preferred bathroom experience and I don't recall seeing an image of the bathroom which might have influenced our booking, but it does the trick and is a more affordable option. Unfortunately the owners dog was not friendly, and barked/chased us as we attempted to get into our car and was quite aggressive. If you are not a fan of dogs I would not recommend you stay here as the dog even bit me (no broken skin/pain) but it was quite off putting and made my experience much less enjoyable.

  : We stayed in the smallest apartment under the house. This is not very big, but good for a stay of one or two days. Friendly hostess. The apartment was a bit noisy due to the footsteps from the apartments above (wooden floor), but actually we were not bothered by it (will depend on the other guests though). Good base to explore the area around Vik.
  : The general photos from the main page on booking can be misleading as they give an overall picture of all apartments. The lower apartment is much smaller than the others and does not have the beautiful views from the apartments that are above. Be sure to take a good look at the photos per accommodation option so that you know what you are getting. If I had done that, I would have booked one of the larger apartments situated on the first floor (my own mistake, but i was too late to change it)

  : Convenient location after a day around the Golden Circle before setting off on the rest of the Ring Road. Too late to book breakfast on arrival (shame as homemade breads and jams sound lovely), but big supermarket not far away. Review for bigger room than we had booked (studio) due to misunderstanding on arrival of other guests - simple, spacious living area and good kitchen, bed and bedding very warm and comfortable, and a kind host.
  : Was ok for us, but need to to be alright on arrival/departure with a vocal dog.

  : The bed was super comfortable, as well as the duvet, felt like sleeping on clouds
  : The bathroom was a bit too tiny, and didnt offer enough towels. Overall the place could be a bit cleaner, the apartment felt like it was closed for a long time (the air felt stuffy).
