Host is very passionate about his uncle’s art and has great stories. He is currently working on putting a bathroom inside the room, which will definitely elevate the place. The shower outside is fantastic and a must try! I could stare at the art, that covers the room and ceiling, all day. Great location close to airport, blue lagoon, volcano hike, and about 50 min to main city.

The warm shower outside is a must.

Super Art, nice lights inside and we saw northern lights just in front of the door. Perfect. The owner super friendly and honest. Thanks again 11/10

Nothing

We had a fantastic time looking at the paintings and enjoying the hot tub!

If I have to pick something, it would be that the pillows were a bit too hard for my liking, but I am picky when it comes to pillows.

The location itself was very practical. Easy to reach from the airport. The room had paintings literally from floor to ceiling. Our host was wonderful and told us lots of stories.

Not having an on suite bathroom...

Great hotel for the airport. Such a quirky and interesting place - your bed is actually in the art gallery! The hot tub was an added bonus. The host shared the history of how the gallery came to be...

A bit annoying you need to get out the building for toilet but acceptable. Owner is not very responsive for booking.com messages, but we end up sorting out our commute by ourselves so all good.

Absolutely love the art, the owner of the place very nicely introduced us the art and the facilities when we arrive

I wasnt able to access the toilet when i woke up

Authenticity, it was unique, Ragnar was very kind and he cheered us to experience the viking shower he has!

The only thing was the fact that the bathroom was inside Ragnar house. It was fine though.

The room we stayed in was huge, and very comfortable and warm. It also was decorated with heaps of artworks and was an incredible place to stay. Our host was also exceptional and went above and beyond to help us out. Thank you so much Ragnar!! The Viking shower was also great!

Since we arrived late we weren't able to receive welcome info from the host, and I had forgotten the bathroom is inside the hosts home, not in the room. This place would not work if you need to get up to use the toilet in the night. Maybe making a 'guest guide' to email guests and have in the room, with helpful info in one place about how and when accessing the bathroom, hot tub, shower, WiFi, and getting keys to the place (keys were not obvious and door was unlocked when we arrived). Ragnar was enthusiastic to share his uncle's art with us, but was in his bathrobe the whole time, which made us uncomfortable. Also, he told us he had the Icelandic flag at half mast in his front yard as his 'response' as an artist to his neighbor's Pride flag, so I would not advise anyone from the LGBTQI+ community to stay here.

You are sleeping surrounded by art! Learning about the artist and his artwork, as told by Ragnar, the artist's nephew whose life mission now is to bring Brimars art to the public. The location is good, in a quiet neighborhood near Keflavik. The beds were soft and comfy. Tea kettle and tea provided, couch, small sink and desk with chair. We arrived late at night and Ragnar left the door open for us, which was much appreciated. The hot tub and outdoor shower behind the guest room is heated by geothermal, and we wished we'd had time to use it, but it looked great!

The wifi essentially didn't work in the room. The bathroom was in the main part of the house (the gallery is separate), that wasn't a big problem for 1 night but could be annoying if staying multiple nights.

This quirky stay is very fun with all the art work that the owner explains was done by his relative. The mattress is on the floor but very comfortable. The room was very spacious. Close to airport. Easy to find.

We did not have wifi access though it was listed. There is no shared kitchen. The bathroom is in the owner's house.

The room was spacious and location to airport worked for us. It was the only place we stayed in Iceland that had a fan :) We also enjoyed the art very much.

Stayed in June 2024

Toilet and bathroom were outside the room. You need to walk about 3 metres, but it was clean, host never bothered us and given everything else about the place, it really did not bother us.

Quirky place, and host was very friendly giving us an account of his uncle experience who was the painter of the room where we stayed. He provided everything even a hair straightener, body creams, hot tub and bbq area. What a place and what an experience!

Ideally would have liked to check in earlier than 18:00

Memorable experience, good location, great price

Host is so friendly.. room is special, spacious and clean.. location is so near the airport

This was a really neat property. Welcoming spaces, comfortable beds, decent kitchenette, great hot tub in the backyard, which we really enjoyed. Just a few minutes down the road from the airport. We fell in love with Iceland on our short stay and plan to return for longer next year, would stay here again!

Stayed in March 2024

Wifi didn’t work and not much 4G coverage. Had to go outside ( in snow) and through house next door for Bathroom.

Super close to airport for car rental return and early flights. Fitted out garage covered in family artwork along with fascinating stories from host.

Stayed in April 2024

Unique place go stay at, with an owner that only enriches this experience with passion for his project and lots of interesting stories to tell. Really appreciated the option for airport transfer. Sad I was not Viking enough for the outside shower 😁
