    The room had a damp smell to it which was especially strong in the bathroom. The room felt a bit dated, for example the shelf below the window was falling out of the wall and the wall needed repainting. Not much room for x2 large suitcases and a couple.

    This was a really fairly priced hotel. It was one of the cheaper accommodations we booked whilst on a holiday in Iceland. The staff were friendly. The room had all the facilities we needed including black out blinds and a comfortable bed. The room met our expectations for the price we paid. The hot tub was a nice touch.

    No room for luggage. The whole place smelled like fish, and the clothing I left on the bed overnight ended up stinking, as well. They should have aired it out, cleaned it, and washed the comforters.

    Good price and location. Nice kitchenette and bathroom.

    Shower needs to be fixed and careful cleanliness on amenities before next guest arrives in.

    Easy location and parking accessible at all times. Private area and room which was nice. Only sharing a wall with one other room which was vacant during our stay. Quite location.

    Such a cosy place to stay! We had a beautiful self-contained apartment in a great location with walking distance into Selfoss, Golden Circle and so much more! The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this place to stay, it's very clean, has everything you need and great value for money!

    The location was great, only a short walk to shops and Selfoss downtown area. Booked slightly last minute but the price per night was very reasonable compared to other locations we saw. We had everything we needed with lots of kitchen items provided. Generally very clean with comfortable beds and it was great to come back to after a day out! The weather was very cold during our stay but we were very warm and cozy here. We had a small issue unrelated to our stay and the staff were very kind in trying to help.

    The accommodation is very well located, next to all points of interest on your trip To Iceland - before or after exploring Golden circle and the perfect stop to continue your road trip from/to the South. The cabin we booked was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom as well, and equipped with a private kitchen as well. We recommend it 100% and will definitely book there again if we come back to Iceland

    The room could've been warmer. The heater radiator in the bathroom didn't really work. Need room service and refill of the soap for 2 nights stay.

    Hot tub, bed, location is so nice. It's like a cabin in the wood, with a super modern inside. We didn't expect the hot tub, but they gave it for free, open for 24 hours, and it was so nice in a cold weather.

    There was an unpleasant smell in the bathroom that was resolved by opening the window from time to time. But this did not impact the overall experience.

    The room was amazing, we loved the view from the windows and cosiness of the cabin. The location was superb being in the middle of the town of Selfoss but still feeling isolated. Also within a great driving distance to the Golden Circles main attractions. The hot tubs were also amazing and clean!

    The way to the hut was not paved or had gravel so I was tripping over some roots while trying to unload the car. The hut was small, had an old kitchenette, only the most basic kitchenware and no smoke detector. Mattresses were somewhat old and you felt a dip while laying on it. They bunk bed looked a little sketchy and is only suitable for children! They tried to upgrade the place with minimum effort by painting the walls white and green.

    The staff was really nice and the location was great. Groceries and gas station were right around the corner.

    An extractor unit would be useful in the kitchen - there wasn't one and it made the room steam up when cooking. A toaster would have been nice, but not an essential.

    The cabin was a great little unit. Really warm! Compact but had mostly what you'd need. The bed was great! Good central location and Selfoss is good for continuing your journey in any direction.
