    The room was great, completely new, super comfy bed and smart tv. So far the best guesthouse we slept in Iceland. The possibility to use the shared kitchen is also nice, is super fully equipped.

    Large, bright room with patio. Traveling with a friend, so appreciated having the two beds separate. It was great to have a meal available (at extra cost) since the location is remote.
