    Nothing at all.

    Lovely location walking distance from the seawall and beach. Cosy accommodations in a private cottage with kitchen, a working TV (! Rare for Iceland!). Short drive to the golden circle. Loved it.

    Probably a cultural thing, but what's up with the double duvet!?

    It was a beautiful doll house, that made us feel right at home from the start in a lovely town, by the sea shore!

    Basement with steep stairs to bathroom not suitable for seniors or small children. There was a railing and two handles. No shower, but tub had hand sprayer. Duvets very warm. We used duvet covers only instead. We turned radiators off and opened windows for fresh air and cooler sleeping. Sound carries between rooms. Front door locked if closed. Risk of lock out. Keep key in pocket. Lock box too high for short person. Door entry sill necessary in seaside house but was easy to trip over. We put suitcases in living room and kitchen as first bedroom had no floor space. Kitchen light on motion sensor. No turn off. One ceiling light bulb out.

    Seaside location in historic village. Quiet. Private. Clean. Outdoor dried fresh linens. Pull down shade which partially reduced external light. Had all the basics. Some coffee provided. Nicely remodeled. Basement level bathroom tub was pretty and spa like. Plenty of hot water. Easy parking. Good location for sightseeing east of capital. Almost 2 hour drive to airport. Charming historic property. Outside patio and little table. Sea wall at rear of yard for evening walk with view. Owner available locally by telephone.

    I like everything, but I can see how people with mobility issues or small children might find the stairs challenging. It was perfect for my husband and I and our two teens.

    This guest house was so quaint and rustic, but the interior is very comfortable. The location near the sea wall was very nice. It was great to take walks along the harbor early in the morning. It was a quiet neighborhood outside of Selfoss and a perfect starting place for exploring the south coast.

    The sea side cottage was a warm welcome for us to Iceland. The cottage is made "with love" and every detail is just on point so that you can enjoy the coziness to the fullest and just feel at home. All in one, the flat was super clean, well equipped, and great located.
