Beautiful location! Extremely comfortable rooms! Only negative is the kitchen facilities didn’t work ideally for cooking. Stove is subpar. Would recommend to anyone and stay again though!

The people operating property are very Rude, unorganized, and allow people to do anything that they want. Cooking fish without vent is ridiculous.

Cuisine super fonctionnelle. Café à disposition. Sel poivre etc. Près de tout. Salle de bain privée. Lit confortable. L'insonorisation n'est pas parfaite pour les dormeurs légers, mais les gens étaient respectueux. Seul défaut: l'odeur épouvantable de parfum dans la chambre si les odeurs vous incommode!

Todo perfecto, lo único fue que el agua caliente olía mucho a azufre, de las 10 noches que estuvimos en Islandia solo nos pasó en este y en otro hotel, puede ser un poco molesto porque no estamos acostumbrados. La cocina muy bien equipada, bastantes amenidades y todo muy tranquilo. La habitación limpia y amplia.

Limpio y silencioso.

Es un camping grande que tiene tambíen habitaciones estilo hotel desatendido sin recepción, entras con código. Tienes cocina, microndas, lavanderia, etc... La habitación estaba limpia y era cómoda. El wifi funcionaba regular. No tiene desayuno incluido pero puedes ir al pueblo a 1 minuto en coche y desayunar donde quieras.
