    During our trip to Iceland, this was our favourite accommodation. We only stayed one night but have numerous highlights. The receptionist was super friendly, the outdoor hot tub in the snow was a treat, the beer was reasonably priced, the room was warm, despite the freezing temperatures, the glass corridors were a treat to hope for Northern Lights (which did not materialise) and then breakfast the next morning was plentiful and delicious.

    Having to 'get around Ring Road' definitely has its drawbacks. The biggest one we found was when you found a great place, your time there was limited. We did stop for the Lava Show in Vik, which was great, and we had dinner there as well. There was not enough time to really see everything before having to move on.

    Iceland is a very expensive place to travel and this guest house was average price for Iceland but the quality of the rooms were low average. Our room had such a bad slope on it we had to sleep at the other end of the bed with our heads above our feet. The bathroom had a toilet in the middle of the room, you had to walk around it to get to the shower and even though the room came with breakfast included it was very poor quality.

    Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.
