    It was a wonderful experience! The staff was very nice and kind. The location is one on the best on the island and the pod is very warm and cozy. If you're lucky you can even see the northern lights. Highly reccomended! I hope to get back soon. Thanks for everything!

    Great value for money! with beautiful surroundings and hot tubs!

    We came in late around 9pm and were lucky that we saw the northern lights on our night there! It provides three hot tubs which are open until 11pm, all with different temperatures and water. Kitchen and toilet are public for everyone to use. We did not see private shower cabins, though, which was a bit strange if you are not used to showering at an open public space. It is a beautiful place and I definitely can recommend staying there two nights, explore the troll garden and go on a hike.

    We would have liked more bathrooms and more privacy in the showers. Unisex bathrooms would be great!

    The camping pods were so cozy and clean! The staff was so excellent! Everyone was kind. The food at the restaurant was unexpectedly amazing. We spent 10 days in Iceland and this is a top 5 highlight. (And we loved everything we saw in Iceland) This place is a must do. We were also able to see the northern lights for the first time from right outside our pods.

    Loved our pod! It was very comfortable, warm & cozy. Rode out a hefty wind storm our last night without any problems. We ate dinner at the restaurant. The food was very good & the view of the falls made it very special. We enjoyed chatting with the other guests while soaking in the hot tubs. The kitchens were clean & we were able to freeze our ice pack overnight. Check-in & out was super easy.

    The two kitchens were too small to fit for all the guests. You have to wait for the other guests to finish in order to have clean glasses and cuttlery to use.

    The position was really nice and the place offers numerous additional services. The pods are warm and isolated, so it is confortable to sleep inside them. We appreciated the presence of the hot tubs.

    The only thing is, there is only one bathroom in the whole campsite so sometimes you have to line up and it's kind of stinky :(

    The pods are really cute, trails/walks around the campsite exceeded my expectation, the place has a lot of character, and the view of the troll falls is beautiful. If you are lucky, you can also see the northern lights!

    For the price charged it would be nice to have at least one of the following included - breakfast, bed linen, douche gel/shampoo.

    - Breakfast is good in general and in terms value for money. - Pods are clean and cozy - The kitchen is decently equipped and cleaned daily. - Staff is very friendly

    Again, seems common to Iceland - showers with no separation, just common space with multiple shower heads. A bit uncomfortable if you are not used to it.

    The location of property was amazing - near river and with great mountain view. Cabin was clean and fresh, equipped with heaters. Our favourite spot were hot tubs. Breakfast is worth the money.

    A minor detail, but the wifi is quite spotty the further you get from the reception are

    What a little gem. We expected something a little humble given it's a camp site, but we were impressed with the entire property. It is not 5 star, but for camping it was better than we are used to. The breakfast was full and fairly priced. The grounds were beautiful and adventurous for young kids. It was quiet and peaceful.

    Another type of accommodation in barrels/pods, which offers more camping comfort but is less expensive than a classic hotel room. The campsite also offers hot tubs for all guests to use and a "troll path" to explore. Recommended.

    Nothing.

    Beautiful, interesting accommodation. It's a good idea to book your bed linen in advance, so you get some discount if they don't forget, as was the case with us. But we sorted it all out. They go out of their way to make sure that guests are comfortable, there are kitchens, hot baths, different trails ... you can soak in the hot water ... All in all, everything is in good order and we would be happy to return.

    I regret booking only 1 night here.

    It was the best accommodation we have had in Iceland! Property facilities, stuff, location and prices for all of it exceeded my expectations. Food in restaurant was really good and we were dining with a stunning view on the river, mountains and sunset. The hiking and walks around the camping are beautiful so interesting (the whole story about trolls and elves) - children of age from 3 to 100 will absolutely love it! Hot tubs were clean, really nice and with good t°. The camping pod had a private parking next to it, inside everything very well thought and bed was comfortable.
