Our cabin was newly updated. It was quiet, comfortable and clean. We enjoyed breakfast on the property the next morning. The food was great and they offered to pack up some lunches (for a small fee) to take away which was a great lunch option.

This property is perfectly located to visit Mývatn and the Húsavík areas. The staff are so helpful and accommodating. The breakfast is really good. The accommodations are individual cabins with 3 units in each. Good size rooms and comfortable beds. But the best part is it’s away from everything and dark at night. Each room has a huge picture window. We saw the Northern Lights Monday night. Great location to see them. I hope we get back someday.

Great stay! Loved the included breakfast and the option for dinner (did not get to try dinner given our other activities during our stay, but I absolutely would’ve been excited to try it if it worked with our schedule!). The room had the necessities and was a clean and comfortable place to land at the end of the day! Didn’t spend much more time on the property overall, but loved the views and the vibes! Certainly would recommend!

The staff here was great! I accidentally booked the wrong night and they called when we were supposed to be there and totally accommodated us and switched our nights for free and we’re so kind and gracious! It was a very clean and comfortable bed and the breakfast was great too! Would definitely recommend this place!

This guesthouse is spread out over many utilitarian-looking buildings on a pretty hillside. Our room (three beds) was nothing fancy but was very clean and worked well as we out all day exploring. We had a middle room in one of the long buildings and noted that the walls were thin, but most other residents were quiet and kept early hours so not a big deal. Breakfast (included) was a continential breakfast buffet with yogurts, pastries, bread, sliced meats and cheeses, hard boiled eggs etc. it was served in a large bright dining room and everyone followed spacing and sanitizing/mask-wearing protocols, which we appreciated. There was also seating outside. It was easy and quick to get from our lodging to Húsavík and to Myvatn—this makes it a great base for exploring the area!

Highly recommended!
Very clean. Good restaurant. Great breakfast. The guesthouse team was very friendly and efficient. Room was big and comfy. Doing laundry at the guesthouse is possible! You give your bag of laundry and you get it back clean next morning. We would specifically like to mention Veronica. Her service and professionalism was one of a kind! We enjoyed our stay.

Great Service
This location has a group of buildings, each with 6-8 rooms in them. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Check-in was easy with very attentive service by the owners. I do like that you have to reserve a time for breakfast because it kept the number of people down a bit and made it a nicer experience in the morning. Breakfast was really good, making us wish we had dinner there the night before. It is about 15 minutes or so from the center of Husavik, but the drive is very pleasant. Highly recommend this location to anyone visiting the area.
