When I booked this property for 2 nights I thought we would have the entire house to ourselves. At other guest houses we have stayed at in Iceland, this was the case. Instead, what I booked was a room with 4 beds that had common areas available to all guests. There were 9 guests total each night with 1 bathroom. Kitchen could use a thorough cleaning; freezer drawers we totally unusable as they were iced shut (needed to be defrosted and cleaned.) Property setting is 15 minutes from town with no services any closer. Guest house is situated on a sheep/ horse farm which was interesting. Host was quickly responsive to our needs. Beds bedding was very comfortable.
Quaint, quiet, and wonderful is how I'd describe my stay. We cooked dinner in the kitchen and then sat in the hot tub watching the stars. Comfortable stay. Only downside is there's just 1 bathroom for ~7 people the guesthouse can host.
No where in my listing when I booked this hotel did it say it was a shared house. If listed it as a guesthouse. I was traveling with my family and forced to stay here due to nothing else in the area being available. There's 4 bedrooms that you can rent but only one bathroom in the house. Just be warned the listing is very misleading!!
Koodia huoneeseemme kysyimme erikseen, viesteihin vastattiin ystävällisesti. Odotimme kivaa taloa maalla, keittiön sisustus oli mummolan tuntuinen ja ihan ok, mutta huoneemme kunto ja sängyt eivät olleet hyvät. Kaikki tuuletusikkunat koko talossa oli auki ja talo kylmä. Huoneessamme oli runsaasti ötököitä avoimen ikkunan takia, jaettu wc ja kylpyhuone oli myös kylmä ja sisällä muutamia ötököitä. Sänkyjen liinavaatteet kuluneet ja vaikka olivat pesty niin ei tuntunut kivalta. En voisi itse suositella.
