Great hotel choice for the area!
The hotel was clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped. Lots of outlets too. The employees were very responsive when we needed something. It’s remote but most places are in that area of Iceland. I would definitely stay there again!

This guest house was super comfortable and staff communication was great… super convenient check-in. Only downside, is it’s in the middle of nowhere. 8 km on a gravel road. But… place is great. Might be best accommodation within 100km so don’t let the dirt road discourage you. You can see the horizon over the volcanic plane and ponder.

Nice, but the walls are paper thin
The apartment itself was clean and very nice, however, they may as well have separated the units with a curtain because you can literally hear everything that goes on in the neighboring apartments. Someone next door snored very loudly all night and I was unable to sleep at all.

Don’t doubt yourself when driving down the road. Just keep driving with car windows up. Didn’t receive any email about check in process from the property; staff was actually there waiting; saying they don’t do email as we booked via Expedia. Nice room as it’s a very new facility. Had to wear eye mask as the curtains doesn’t block the light. Oh one big bummer—WiFi not working. Several phone calls with no resolutions 😞

Once we figured put how to get to you, it was very nice. Our GPS tried to send us down an impassable road, before we could get Google maps to head us in the right direction. Also a little akward that there ir no reception/office to find where to check in. The apartment was lovely. We really enjoyed your property

This is a new property. There are still works in progress but no workers present maybe it was weekend. The unit has everything we needed, exceptionally clean. The drive from the main road took about 12 minutes. The morning we checked out, sky was blue. We enjoyed the drive back to the highway. There are mossy lava rocks, crystal clear streams, goats… The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because I didn’t receive any emails for door code or check in information prior to arrival. I had to call the number on the notice posted on the property.

Great place!
Omg! This place is amazing! While it is in the middle of nowhere down a long gravel drive, it's perfectly situated between Vic & The Glacier Lagoon. It's brand new and as you walk in the entry and bathroom have heated floors! The host is very thoughtful.

The room was clean and modern style. Unique location, I liked it. The staff was good and warm welcome. Coffee was soooo good. But the room had no soundproofing, so I could hear conversations and footsteps, everything from the next rooms.

It's over 15 min drive on unpaved road from Route 1 to the Apartments. Condition of the unpaved road is poor, especially after heavy rain and after construction vehicle passed by. The Apartment itself is very clean, chic and comfortable, just the surrounding area is indeed a construction site with workers working around, construction vehicles passed by. With the price you paid, you can have many choices along Route 1 in the area.

This property was very new, nicely furnished. Comfy beds, nice kitchen. Liked the special coffee & chocolates, nice touch. Excellent view of Northern Lights as it is dark there. This was kind of pricey compared to other places we stayed. Isolated, rough road off the highway (it had rained).

While communication is great and we were given clear direction to reach the property. Upon arriving we discovered there is no hot water and the heaters are not working. We attempted calling and emailing in late hours but didn’t receive any response.

Remote Work In Progress
This is a remote location, and as such, we were able to walk out our door and see the northern lights. The room was small but clean and comfortable. We arrived late on the day of our check-in, so it would've been helpful to know we needed to pick up food before arriving. It is at least a 20 km roundtrip to do so, and if it is late (after 6pm) many stores are closed. This accommodation is a work in progress, so don't expect a flawless experience. They are getting some kinks worked out. The heat did go out one evening. However, when I called to report it, they were already working on it and had it restored soon. The contactless check-in means you will get an email with a code to retrieve your room key from the lockbox on the door. In theory this is nice. However, with the remoteness of the location and the southeast being less hospitable to tourists traveling on their own, some contact would have been nice. There is no reception area to ask questions about activities or where to go for food, you are on your own. Knowing what to expect will help make the experience a positive one to remember.
