Despite the scruffy exterior and location close to the city dump, the interior was very well maintained, clean and sleepable. The area outside the building did not smell either (only the drive to/from the building)
Good as a jumping off point near Reykjavik if you want to go do the golden circle as you are already in the outskirts of town.

Clear check-in instruction was provided. The place is very quite and the view was beautiful. There is a Kitchen which is very convenient to make some simple meals. Suggestion to the property owner: at least provide some facial tissue in the room, shampoo/conditioner and shower gel in the shower room. Thanks!

We absolutely LOVED Viðines Guesthouse.
The morning cleaning staff is so helpful and kind that we all cried before leaving.
The location is beautiful, while not being too far from Reykjavik. The sense of freedom, especially as far as meals are concerned, is invaluable (no schedule imposed whatsoever.
Only "negative" point: it is REALLY time for a new toaster! And the free coffee runs out every other day!

The property look run down, definitely in the middle of no where, the room was crawling with bugs and dirty under the bed. Barely had heat. The water will tarnish your jewelry, due to the water system. The water stinks and smells like eggs. Will go the extra mile and stay in hotel

Very good price. Room was very clean. Shared toilet/shower, basin in the room. Will book again. Not at all fancy if you are looking for that.
