Very nice little cottage in a great area. Updated on the inside and there’s even a common area that’s stocked with tea, coffee etc that provides a good area to sit and eat. We would definitely stay here again.

The hot tub was not working, there was no water and looked like it had not been used for quite some time, false advertisement. The shower didn’t really work, it was difficult getting in with few travel amenities

We stayed for 3 nights. Loved how the towels and bed sheets had a lovely clean scent. The location is very convenient to access the airport, but we didnt hear any planes. It was very quiet and seeing the horses through the window every morning was lovely. Definitely recommend this place, and hope we can stay here again next time we visit Iceland.

Amazing room and super clean. Smelled as fresh as could be upon entering. Comfortable beds and pillows. Just wish the hot tubs were up and running while we stayed there.

Our stay here was an ideal way to end our trip to Iceland. It is located in a peaceful and quiet area, close to the airport and car rental locations, which made an early morning flight conveniently easier. The room was sparkling clean and spacious, and the amenities were perfect. The shower and heated towel rack were A+. We also loved that the TV had streaming services available that were already logged-in (with accounts for each cabin), meaning we didn’t have to use our personal accounts. The central kitchen area was great for breakfasts, and the parking and pathway system made rolling our luggage to and from the car easy. I would absolutely stay here again.

We wanted something close to the airport and this was perfect. We did have a car rented so not sure about public transport here. Definitely not too much around but that made it peaceful. Beautiful grassy landscape around the property. The shared kitchen was modern and clean. Rooms were very nice and updated.
