IsraelWe had a very good stay, we got a bit late, we asked for dinner and, although the cafe was closed, we could have dinner and order whatever we wanted from the menu, we were really grateful for that. Breakfast was very good, specially the delicious pastries!

SpainOur stay was comfortable, easy to check in even though we were in late around 22:00. We walked around 2-3 mins and were able to see Northern lights. 😍 We had all the amenities we thought of, like a microwave, water heaters. The best thing was the breakfast. Plenty of options to choose from and had a heavy first meal.

United KingdomThese are strange times, normally the place would be full of tourists but i was all alone in the hotel. I did not mind it that much. I checked in very late since i was traveling and sightseeing on my way there. the hostess told me to call her when i got there i did and she arrived 3-4 minutes later and checked me in and showed me my room. Great showers, the hot water did not have the usual odor that you get in the cities. As i was traveling i couldn't get something to eat and i arrived late so everything was closed but there was free instant noodles provided for free. :) petrol station is just outside the hotel and a small diner just 200 meters away.

Monika and Halldór
Cosy small guesthouse with private bathrooms in the beautiful Eastern fjords of Iceland.
Hi there! We're Monika and Halldór, a Polish/Icelandic mountain loving duo that in May 2021 decided to pack their bags, move from capital region to the beautiful East of Iceland, buy a guesthouse and café and here we are. We have big dreams and big plans for this place for the future, so whether you're a native or a tourist, stop by and let us be a part of your adventure!
We have cafe and bar on site. The world famous stone collection of Petra is located only 350 meters (1.150 feet) from the property. There's also many hiking trails all around the fjord.

Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU and/or national consumer law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
