Very clean. Staff very helpful. Good facilities
Kylie S, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Amazing location. There are so many natural wonders within a very short driving distance from the guesthouse. But the property is pretty dated. There is very little beyond spartan level facilities. One really really big plus for the guesthouse is the breakfast. The staff is also very accommodating.
Dmitriy, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

the room only have 3 single beds and no other facilities. room price over $500, that is a bit overpriced
Kaymen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Just not used to a hostel environment. There was never a shortage of shared facilities, but we are used to having our own bathroom, etc. Breakfast was on of the best we had in Iceland.
Peter, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Bien

Guesthouse sympathique. La cuisine est complète bien qu’un peu petite pour le nombre de personne qu’accueil l’hôtel. Situé proches de toute commodité en voiture et des sites à voir sur Myvatn. Sanitaires simples et propres. Petit déjeuner complet.

Hébergement simple

Correspond à la description. Correct si l’on recherche un hébergement (très) simple. Un peu bruyant si la chambre est proche de la salle à manger.
Laurent, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Please add a exhaust hood / cooker hood in the common kitchen, it was full of lamb steak smell when we checked in.
Wing Ha, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Pros: good breakfast, easy check-in Cons: very thin walls, neighbors were noisy quite late and it was hard to sleep at night. It was okay for one night, however would recommend staying elsewhere if spending more time in this area.

It’s a convenient location to stop. The guesthouse is fine. It’s just not very up-to-date. However, the staff is wonderful.
Julia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This guesthouse had everything we needed while travelling the ring road via Mývatn. The rooms were clean, but definitely not sound proof as other guests using the kitchen were easily heard through the door. The guesthouse was close to the Myvatn nature baths as well as lake Myvatn.
Sasha, 1-night trip

Logement propre et équipé d une cuisine commune. Par contre isolation phonique trop faible. On entend les voisins

Great place to stay in Lake Mytvan. good location, great price and nice a d practical facilities
Domenica, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Can’t beat the location when it comes to accessing all the incredible naturalistic beauty in the area. Easy check-in and good place to rest for two nights. A bit noisy with the thin walls, but thats what you come to expect when staying at guesthouses. Worth it for the price!
Milan, 2-night trip

Breakfast was amazing! Staff was friendly and helpful. Great location to see the areas beauty
Kalin, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

bien lit confortable je m’attendais à guest house privé mais c’est plutôt un regroupement sous la gouvernance d’un même propriétaire

Todo súper bien
Rafael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent guesthouse with kitchen, restaurant and grocery store within walking distance.
Bin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall a good experience. Minor thing: doors were making creaking noise, so if other guests in a different room open their door to use the restroom or access the kitchen, you could hear it in your room at night.
Aseem, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good, quiet place with a Kitchen.
Prasanna, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy, cheap and convnient.
Michele, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful staff left us a notes with detailed instructions for our late check-in. Thank you! It’s nice to know they’re offering laundry service, even we didn’t have a chance to do it. Very clean room; like the” shoes off” idea. One bathroom door has very loud scratches sounds when open and close it. Will recommend it for it’s location too😊
Daxin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a beautiful view from my room, and they have separate houses with only a view rooms so it was nice and quiet. One of the more private hotels.
