This was a great stay for the one night we needed before heading back to Reykjavik! Very convenient as it is right off the 1 HWY, loved that there was a communal fridge upstairs for the guests and the restaurant downstairs was excellent! The bathroom smelled moldy when the water ran...other than that the room was great!

There’s no getting away from the fact this is an isolated spot, but we knew that when we booked. The in-house restaurant has a great choice of dishes and our food was lovely. Nice communal lounge for guests to use. Great choice for those travelling the ring road
