Dinar, United States of America

Nice location close to the national park of Snaefellsnes, room was an Independent house/cottage which seemed small from the outside but was very comfortable with big bathroom and nice bed!

Michalis, Greece

Cottage was a little smaller than some of the other cottages we had stayed at during our 11 day trip around Iceland. They were very clean and cozy. The breakfast hours were earlier here than anywhere else we stayed. We requested a cottage with a nice view and we were given one on the end with a pretty mountain view. The rooms are as pictured on bookings.com.

Shelly, United States of America

We stayed in the cottages and they were clean, comfortable and modern with a beautiful backyard mountain, Stapafell. Breakfast spread was filling and very typical of Iceland with cheeses, meats, hard boiled eggs and breads. Very close to the Arnarstapi / Hellnar hike which is lovely, and a must do. Great location overall with lots to do and see in the area.

1) Drain in the shower was a headache. 2) A note inside the cottage announced breakfast between 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM. Booking.com didn't give any details regarding breakfast. Since there's no reception in winter, we were not able to clarify that in person in advance. The reception opens at 10:00 AM in winter, they had coffee and croissant as the only food option. As a result, we wasted about 2 hours (from 8 to 10 AM) waiting for the food that they didn't have. The nearest restaurant they advised us to go to is in Budir, which is ~20 km away. Bring your own food or be ready to drive somewhere for breakfast. Also, perhaps, things are different in summer.
Location is great and relatively easy to find even in the darkness. Cottages are very nice and comfortable. We had a good sleep there.

“Need clear information about renting this place during winter season, not a bad place after all”
- • Leisure trip

Not the best view, when you have a house in front of you, wasn't able to go in cabin #1 too much snow and nobody to remove the snow, had to leave our car on the road, parking was full of snow, which isn't acceptable, I came from Quebec were we have snow 9 months per year and everything is clean even in big storm, which i expect from Iceland. Also no mention anywhere when we reserved that the restaurants are not open at diner time, lucky enough we asked and got something at lunch time to have it re-heated for diner in the microwave. Also lucky to find the house keeper and told us to go in the cabin #10 closer to the road. I think if you want to open in winter you need to keep your place ready and provide clear information, and give winter rebate, since the places around are not open and there will be snow and no services to remove it... and nothing open for breakfast...
Location is great, but the cabins are not so well placed, behind other houses, so you don't have a great view from the room, but you are very close to the park. I'm sure it's better during summer.

The only thing was that they said they were going to have breakfast but apparently it is not served in the wintertime so that was a little bit disappointing but the innkeeper would get up and make coffee and croissants!
The views were amazing and the cottages or adorable and it has a great location and everything you do want to see on the peninsula.

During our stay the hotel was closed so breakfast was not included. Adding to that the cottages do not have cooking facilities and the nearest cafe only started serving at 10 am, a bit late for travellers like us. We would not have had this problem if we stayed there any other month of the year.
Cute cottages in a beautiful location. Good size bedroom and bathroom with Nice decor.
