    Overwhelming numbers of gnats on the property, don't leave windows open

    Location was excellent very beautiful, easy access to Golden Circle and hot springs, place clean.

    Jalousien at bedrooms did not block the light at the edges of the windows and therefore the quality of sleep was not optimal for us at summer time (24 hours of light). My partner was missing a closet to hang clothes (not a big issue) and a booklet/binder with a guide and some instructions for the stay.

    Located close to four top attractions at the Golden Circle, country side, nature, jacuzzi and bbq facilities to have a good time in the evenings; the kitchen is well equipped with all the necessary, new and clean stuff to enjoy the stay. Modern and spacious living room and outside dining table for a small family to enjoy; Water heater with enough capacity for showers for a family; bed linen, towels, bathrobes, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom were clean; nicely decorated. Recommended. Could stay again.

    The water in the shower didn't go down properly and there was flooding in the shower, the jacuzzi didn't heat up all the way but it was fine

    A very spacious apartment, 2 bedrooms and a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, a huge garden and a river right next to it, there is a jacuzzi, highly recommended for everyone

    Lack of written instructions. Had to reset main fuse to get stove top to work, twice. Floor wasn't cleaned prior to arrival.

    We had no complaints about the cottage. I don’t think there was anything we didn’t like. We had a slight issue with one of the sockets causing the fuses to trip but we just moved the appliance, reset the fuses and it was all good.

    The check in was easy, key box provided. The location was superb and we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights in the evening. Loved the hot tub which was very luxurious. The cottage was bigger than we were expecting and had absolutely everything we needed.

    The kitchen wasn´t finished but it didn´t impact anything in terms of cooking.

    Location was perfect to explore the south of Iceland. The hot tub and BBQ were brilliant. Beds were comfy and we felt like we were in the middle of nowhere which is exactly what we were looking for. The hosts were also brilliant at communication. All appliances were new and there was plenty to cook with.

    It was very small! We were only four people but the cabin is for six people. I do not think that this would be possible, especially with only one bathroom. The rooms are very small, with no room for suitcases. The refrigerator really needs an upgrade, as it was very small with missing shelves in the door. The kitchen sink had a leak around the faucet, that looked like it had been repaired before but still leaked onto counter top. Not a lot of water, we just made sure to keep a towel there to mop it up.

    Cabin is very cute with full kitchen, gas bbq and jacuzzi. Kitchen had plenty of pans, dishes, etc along with a coffee maker and microwave. The owners were very helpful with communication, explaining the key safe outside the door. We also had an issue with the drain in the shower backing up and the owner came by to check on it. We had already fixed it with just a plunger, so not a big deal. The scenery is amazing with the river right next to the cabin (#5) and it is very quiet.

    The outside area (table, seats etc) wasn't cleaned and the barbecue neither so we had to do some cleaning in order to be able to dine outside.

    The landscape with the river nearbý, the cottage was lovely as well as the jacuzzi outside (clean water and all prepared for our arrival!). We found everything we needed and our host was very friendly and helpful. A perfect stay, we would have liked to have more days!

    It wasn't very clean. Basic clean, but not to thoroughly.

    The location is absolutely perfect. We where here in winter time and where able to see the northern lights from the couch.

    Its sth between a spacious cottage and a construction site. Everything is a bit old, Some parts of the kitchen are missing. There was also a power issue with the pool. The owner was a bit lost with this problem, we found then a solution No big problem but its fit in the whole pictire. The oven was very dirty, the fridge was only ok. The bed was nice. Over all, its not the common standard of accomodations in Iceland.
