Nice little place. The shared bathroom was musty in the showers. Lake front is across lava field and highway. Really cute huts, clean linens, kettle in room and heat. It was convenient location for our ring road trip!

Very good location for tourists to Iceland. Very nice staff. Good value for given shared facilities, like kitchen, showers, bathrooms. The door in our cabin got stuck when trying to open or close it.

Nice place
The place was clean. Kitchen in the hostel had the necessary tools. I like the showers near the reception. My only issue is washroom was not in the hut so I had to bundle up just to go to the washroom.

We originally booked for a cabin, but they put us up in a guesthouse due to cold weather conditions. There was no additional charge for what I’m assuming was an upgrade in accommodations. So thoughtful and kind!

Die Hütte ist süß. Ca 10 m vor der Hütte sind warmes und kaltes Wasser - das ist super, nur etwas kompliziert bei Wind;-)) Man sollte wissen: Die Gemeinschaftsküche sowie Bad/Toiletten sind ca 100 m entfernt. Und man sollte lieber vorher woanders Lebensmittel kaufen, da es in der Nähe nur einen sehr teuren „Krambudin“ gibt.

I bagni distanti e non molto funzionali. I cottage troppo piccoli, senza possibilità di appendere nulla, e senza prese elettriche (1 per tutta la stanza), riscaldamento funzionante bene. Il panorama era bello.

Hutje was klein en had kieren. Gebrek aan eigen wc was grootste ongemak! De gezamelijke wc was ver lopen. Was zeker te duur voor wat geboden werd.

Eine gemütliche einfache Holzhütte, Heizung funktioniert wunderbar, ebenso eine hübsche Lampe für den Abend, Wasserkocher und zwei Tassen und eine kleine Terrasse mit zwei Stühlen und Tischchen mit Blick auf diese einzigartige Landschaft.

Svært enkel hytte, men sengene var heldigvis gode. 150 meter til WC og et veldig enkelt kjøkken. Ikke adgang til vannkoker utenom resepsjonen åpningstid. Ikke stoler i hytta. Lite koselig.
