We had a bit of a mixed experience here. On the positive side, the location is fantastic if you are looking to explore the area. It is highly convenient and sits right near the F-road, making it incredibly easy to get out and visit the nearby waterfalls. The staff we encountered were also very friendly and welcoming.

However, we ran into a pretty unappealing issue in our room. When we pulled back the sheets late nigh, we found dead bugs in our bed. Fortunately, they weren't alive, so we just dusted them off and moved past it, but it was definitely not what you want to see.

If you don't mind a potential hitch in housekeeping for the sake of an amazing location and friendly service, it's a nice place to stay - just be sure to check the bed before you settle in.

The best value place I stayed in Iceland, nice buffet breakfast included in the price which is unusual for the basic accommodation in Iceland. As with everything at this kind of price in Iceland you need good earplugs. Good location for tackling F26 the next day.

This was a stay! The staff were very nice and helpful, the food was good, and the other guests were nice too. There were several bathrooms for the rooms with shared baths, so we didn’t have any issues sharing. Everything was clean and well-kept. The beds were comfortable too and we slept well.

One thing that is important to note: this is 14 miles down a gravel road with some bumps, so just be prepared for that. Our rental car (2WD) did fine, but it took a little longer to arrive than we expected.

The staff here was wonderful. We planned to leave our room very early for a long drive back to the west coast and because we were going to miss breakfast the staff was so kind to pack us a little lunch free of charge. We thought it was so very kind of them to do that and appreciated it so much. Thank you for the kind gesture and a lovely stay.

Instructions were easy to follow and staff were helpful. Only downside is you have to check in before 9pm (21:00).

Very safe and the breakfast was good/decently priced. I actually accidentally left some of my valuables by the shoe rack out of exhaustion from a long hike or three…and nobody messed with it overnight when they easily could have swiped my coat and taken a joy ride. Excellent service and more for the price!

Easy check in at the bar of the on-site restaurant. Comfortable and clean. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast included in the price- a rarity!
As the halls are all wood floors and the doors are too it could easily get very loud for some travelers. If you try to be aware of your noise levels it isn’t an issue

This is a typical youth hostel. Many rooms next to each other, but also many bathrooms (much better bathroom-to-guest ratio than many other guest houses). Guess it was still early in the season, the place was far from full, which was very nice. The place was clean and quiet, including the shared bathroom. The included breakfast next morning was typical for Iceland, with cold cuts and bread and jams.

We stayed one night at this guesthouse on a trip around the ring road. Overall, it is a nice property. The rooms are spacious and each room has a sink. I enjoyed the tapestries on the walls (in several languages) explaining the history and legends of the area. This property served breakfast including toast/jams, eggs, and juices. We did not use the onsite restaurant for dinner so I cannot comment on it.

The only negatives I can think of - The property is about 30 minutes south of Laugar. I did not realize that when I was booking. And the wifi is really weak in this property.

Overall, it was a good stay and I would recommend this property.
