Nice cottage

Cool little cottage in a great rural location. Not far from Vik but felt secluded.
Ryan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A beautiful well equipped cottage in a stunning location. It was clean, easy to get into and the view of the mountains was breathtaking. 4 of us (2 adults and 2 kids) stayed there and it was small but well laid out so we felt like we had a good amount of space. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was nice to have coffee, tea and sugar (many places we stayed at on the trip didn’t so this was great to see). We would certainly stay here again and highly recommend this accommodation.

Wonderfully serene!

Wonderfully serene. The cottage was clean and comfortable. Parking was right next to the cottage. It's not far to the next town, so shopping isn't hard either. The valley behind the cottages goes right up to the glacier.

8/10 Very good

I understand its a cabin but there were no toiletries, there wasn’t even a lock on the bathroom door. The location is nice.. view of the mountain was awesome. We enjoyed sitting outside till late night. However, giving 4 star just because of the bathroom.

EVERYTHING WAS GREAT EXCEPT NO WIFI
Keyur, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay. The cabin had a kitchenette with hot plate, toaster, microwave, plates, cups, utinsels for 4, it was perfect for us. Hot water in the shower comes and goes but part of the experience I guess. We hiked up the mountainside right behind our cabin and enjoyed an amazing view. We hiked up to the very close Seljavallalaug swimming pool which was also cool. Loved our stay. I don't see why they won't allow check-in times later than 9pm. We were aware of that deadline and arrived at 8:30pm so it was fine, but it's just a normal key in a lockbox by the door, which means someone is removing that key manually at 9pm if you haven't checked in... just be aware of that.

There is nothing about this property worth calling out. Very poor
Subhash, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a bit confusing to find as the sing on the road said North Star but the street signs did not so we drove around a bit. Once we found it check in was a bit confusing to call and get the code. After that it was perfect! Clean, just what you need, but not more. We layed under the stars in the grass and saw the northern lights! No one around, no noise, no light pollution, it was magical.

No wifi, no hair dryer, whoever sleeps downstairs hears every single noise those who are upstairs are making.

We had to wait for almost one hour to get the code. Please make sure you get the code to open the main door. Main room heater was not working. But manager came and gave us a small heater for the night.
Anup, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Almost no internet signals! Hard to control the water and cold water, so taking shower was a terrible experience. Smelly sink. 5/6 flies was inside, my husband spent 30 mins trying to get them out, then gave up.

Electrical outlets on floor?!?!?

Te cottage has been updated and is okay for one night. The electrical outlets are on the floor making it pretty difficult to make coffee or use the toaster. I had to put things on the floor and then put them up on the counter. Not sure if I would stay again or not.
Cindy, 1-night trip

A nice place close to two waterfalls

It is a clean and comfortable place with a kitchen which is very convenient. The view is nice too. There was enough hot water for all of us (4 in all) to have showers. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Helt ok hytte

Hotels.com videresendte ikke innsjekk info og koder som avtalt.. Men utleier var tilgjengelig på telefon. Hytta var bra, men ingen vindu kunne åpnes. Sikkert pga sterke vinder. Litt ustabil varme i dusjen, som gikk fra veldig varmt til veldig kaldt. Helt OK hytte, man reiser ikke til Island for å bo sitte inne i en hytte. Helt OK for enkel overnatting. Bruker den gjerne igjen. Fantastisk plassering, nær fosser, resturant og bakeri. relativt nær Vik.

Lovely cabins in a quiet area. We had a very comfortable sleep and a welcome departure after staying in noisier hotels.
Glenda, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Clean and in an amazing position, but that's where thd positives end. When you pay a high price for something you expect quality in return. I could overlook the issues at half the price charged, but..... Faulty (and dangerously unpredictable) shower, bathroom door that doesn’t shut, no accessible sockets to plug the kitchen electricals into - there's more, but you get the picture. No obvious way to communicate with anyone to fix the problems either. Disappointing and not to be recommended.

Great accommodation. Smooth and easy check in. Clean. Friendly.
Mags, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cabin was relatively newly built - very basic but practical. Servicable kitchen, beds were comfortable, heat worked,etc. Only complaint was the shower - it would run fine (bordering on scalding) for a while, then the hot water would abruptly cut out. Happened once every 1-2 minutes. There was no answer on the phone line we received from Expedia.
Christian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The views around the property were grand. It is an amazing property nestled at the base of some mountains. The best thing is the view of the mountain in the morning. Only two concerns; we came very late after hours and it was hard to get the access code by messaging and calling; and there was a used makeup sponge left in the bathroom.

Maria, 1-night trip

Avoid this place

We did not receive an email with check inn details. Staf could not be reached, not by phone and no answer on email. The cottage is outdated and too cold inside. You can feel the wind inside! Good location but ridiculously overpriced and non-exisiting communication. No wifi available. Avoid this place!
Evi, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I do not recommend it, very bad communication, I informed them in time that I could not arrive before 9:00 p.m. to check in because it was far away, they sent an email saying that it could not be done later, I asked for their support and they sent a code, I asked them to explain to me How to access and the location because the app did not open in Google Maps, I sent 5 messages and they never responded again, they were supposed to be there until 9:00 p.m. I arrived as quickly as I could without having dinner and they couldn't get there on time at 8:40 p.m. THERE WAS NO ONE and they never responded to my messages, bad place, bad communication, bad service
