Sunnuvegur 3, 800 Selfoss, Iceland – Great location - show map

“Loved that our room let us 3 adults fit in with all our gear. In this small town, finding a guesthouse with availability seems like a real find and we felt happy and rested when we parted. Owner was gracious and you have access to cook your own meals in the kitchen (no breakfast was offered, paid or free).”

“Friendly and funny owner. Made us feel very welcome. More cozy and less sterile than the other guesthouses we stayed at during our 10-day trip. Short drive or easy walk to anything you might need. Good, affordable base for a visit to the Golden Circle sights. Those not looking for glamour will be more than happy here.”

“The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The guesthouse was booked the night I stayed and they have two shared bathrooms the staff made a point to notify me when one was available since he knew I had been waiting. Very considerate.”

Kellie

“Thorgeir was really nice, the house is in a perfect location, closeby to the golden circle and grocery stores and gas stations around. The rooms have a good size and were super clean, just like the bathroom. Surrounding was a very quiet neighborhood. Would book again!”

“This place is about forty minutes from the Keflavik airport, and if you are planning a trip around Iceland, it’s perfect for your first overnight stay. We stayed here for two nights. It offers easy access to Kerid, Gullfoss, Braurfoss and Geysir. The hosts are very attentive, polite and cheerful. Also, a householder singing is great! 😀 Perhaps, it’s the guesthouse we remember the most.”

“We arrived in the middle of the night yet the owner made it possible for us to enter the property. He is a very chattable and nice person, we enjoyed talking to him in the morning. Bathroom is small but clean, kitchen cute and the whole guesthouse rather family-style you feel like at home.”

We didn’t know before that you’re only allowed to use the kitchen from 7-10am, in the evenings you are allowed to use the microwave you only. We worked it out, but good to know before to plan ahead.

The hause was filthy and the host eloquence was over whelming. Their topics were prety creepy. The rooms were ok but the bathroom...

As people have mentioned, the kitchen can be used up to 10 o'clock in the morning. However, after that, you can still use the microwave and common areas. In case someone would be bothered by that, there is no lock on the room, the door is free to open to anyone (although no one should open it and, since it's private property, that shouldn't be a problem).
Cozy room, small but perfect to spend the night and rest. Very nice and helpful host. Great ubication.

“A true guesthouse that can serve as a respite from having to drive back all the way to Reykjavik.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 1 night
It was hard to find, even with GPS, when we arrived late at night since there were no clear instructions on how to check in. IMO, the bathrooms need upgrading: not just a "touch up", but more are needed. I'm not sure how many guests stayed the night when we were there, but after I finished my shower, there was a line of people waiting to use the bathroom.
Loved that our room let us 3 adults fit in with all our gear. In this small town, finding a guesthouse with availability seems like a real find and we felt happy and rested when we parted. Owner was gracious and you have access to cook your own meals in the kitchen (no breakfast was offered, paid or free).

“Was okay, but not allowed to use the kitchen after breakfast time.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 1 night
It was not allowed to enter the kitchen, but only in the morning to do your own breakfast. It is a cheap accommodation which gets expensive as you have to leave the house for going to a restaurant. So I did not like that guesthouse really. I did not feel that well there due to the eating rules. With the guesthouse you also get the whole family. So it was totally different to other guest houses I have stayed.
You can cook and eat only in the morning. The owner was friendly. You will get access to the house 24/7 but as the owner lives there you should be respectful when it comes to late hours and noise.

Bathroom wasn't very clean. One bathroom for 4 rooms. Was ok for the most, as not many there. Wouldn't be good if full house. All bathroom facilities in one bathroom. No street sign.
Could come and go as you please.

“Friendly owner and a good value”
- • Leisure trip

Some competition to get into the bathrooms/showers. No locks on the doors of the individual rooms. Personally, I would never leave my valuables in a room with an unlocked door. The mirrors in the rooms and in the bathroom are rather small.
Friendly and funny owner. Made us feel very welcome. More cozy and less sterile than the other guesthouses we stayed at during our 10-day trip. Short drive or easy walk to anything you might need. Good, affordable base for a visit to the Golden Circle sights. Those not looking for glamour will be more than happy here.

- you are staying in a room in someone's home. While the hosts are very friendly it's still not the same privacy as in a hotel

“Friendly hosts and comfy beds but not enough shared facilities.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 1 night
Only one bathroom upstairs for 4 rooms - could use the one downstairs but this was only because the accommodation wasn't full. Also, it didn't state that there are fridges and tea/coffee making facilities available on each floor as we would have bought milk to have breakfast but thought it would have gone off by the morning.
Good comfy beds and hosts very friendly and chatty. Lovely location in residential street. Able to use the facilities in the kitchen for breakfast (although didn't know this before arriving!)
