    Absolutely nothing

    This hostel is perfect. It is warm and inviting and the host is super friendly and helpful. The rooms are stylish and comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and the free coffee, juice and cake are must welcome. I honestly could not recommend this more highly and I will return.

    The hostel is located in a very small village (few buildings), where there are also two restaurants. The room was good, the shared bathrooms were good, and the staff was very helpful and nice. It is a very good solution in such area. I recommend it.

    The property was one of our favourites while doing the ring road. The rooms are very nice and spacious and also have its own sink which is convenient. The kitchen was great because we could basically cook anything and they had complimentary juice and yogurt!

    Wall plugs voltage is low, so it took the all night to charge the Camera battery

    Nice and cozy place, the kitchen is spacious and well equipped! The showers are great, for pressure and temperature... A dream! No meals or breakfast are provided (as in description), but they offered juices, skyr and an handmade cake in the morning which was so nice!! Special thanks to Victor who welcomed us - we wish you the best for the future!

    There weren’t any toiletries so remember to bring your own shower gel and shampoo. I think there is meant to be some but I couldn’t get the soap to come out of the dispenser so had to take a shower with hand soap haha.

    The complimentary food and drinks were amazing, it was incredibly clean and very cozy for the price. Really enjoyed the stay.

    Mike is an amazing host, he offers coffee, tea, milk, skyr, and a delicious welcoming cake. The rooms are spacious and comfy, there is also a small sink inside. We really felt like at home!

    There was nothing I didn't like.

    The easiness of the welcoming/check-in. We informed we would arrive late and there was no problem at all. The hostel is super cozy, beautifully decorated, with some free food and coffee. Also, the location is amazing, 10/15 minutes away from the glacier lagoon
