Very very satisfied with the stay. The room is small but there is a sink. There are many public bathrooms and there is no need to queue at all. The staff is good and breakfast is free. The surrounding environment is very beautiful. It is very enjoyable to go nearby in the morning and evening. It is definitely a place to recommend to friends.
The room is clean and has a small balcony, you can watch the midnight sunset, and there are historic churches and grass houses outdoors suitable for walking around after dinner to take pictures!
It is about 10km away from the town, but there is no particular inconvenience in shopping. A cute cat welcomed me. I felt a little cold because the heating in the room was out of order.
Wasn't expecting much but ended up so pleasantly surprised! My elderly parents and I absolutely loved our stay here! One of the best places we stayed in Iceland this trip. The Guesthouse manager (matnus? Sorry I'm not sure how his name is spelt!) was kind enough to help us arrange a last minute change of room as we changed our minds and wanted to upgrade to a bigger room. We stayed at the one bedroom apartment and everything was lovely. Squeaky clean, even for a clean freak like me. The place was well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. I noticed there is a thick layer of cushion over the sofa bed so this was the most comfortable sofa bed I've ever slept on. My parents also said the double bed was very very comfortable. Highly highly recommend this Guesthouse!
It belongs to a family hotel. When it arrives, the boss puts the key at the door and takes it by name. The door is the famous Rainbow Road, and there is a restaurant next to it, which is very convenient. We chased the aurora here. The staff at the restaurant next to us suggested that we drive out a little bit, and it is easy to see without lights. We drove out for five minutes and stopped on the side of the road. We took a picture in a while. It was not a busy trip.
Beachfront resort but I only got a skylight. Even the bathroom had a better view. The room had 2 beds but linens were removed for one since I was a solo traveler and only 1 towel was provided. No shoes policy helped keep the house clean. That is very good. I didn’t use the kitchen much except to make tea but seems like it is in good condition. Dishwashing liquid however was in a glass jar instead of pump. It’s strange cos you end up using too much for a small spoon and the jar is very slippery. Bathrooms were clean. Breakfast was excellent! Hot food along with homemade breads. It was the best breakfast I had in my 2 weeks in Iceland. Location is an hour drive from Egilsstaðir via some mountain pass, gravel roads and along the coast road. The views are breathtaking. But it’s a small town and if you don’t intend to hike around the area then it might not be worth spending so much time getting to and fro your accommodation.

GGuest UserHostel to stay when you are passing through eastern Iceland. Very well-equipped accommodation with several common areas. Clean and comfortable rooms. Poor soundproofing, too much noise, rooms facing the living room. Few showers, on the ground floor the toilets and showers are incorporated which causes people to accumulate.
GGuest UserThe young lady at cafe counter who assisted us with check in was just fantastic and professional with her job. She's empathetic when we check in quite late and ready to offer any service such as sandwiches etc..
First class attitude and service 👍

LLin Wei KwaExcellent location near the end of the street, with nice views of the river and mountain/waterfalls. Room was a little too squeezy even for a family of four (with two small kids), but spotless and cozy. Common area was well stocked with beverages and ideal for socialising.
