    Our group was family reunion of 9ppl and we were quite noisy until 1:30 am. We knew we have whole house for us and there is no another guest but there was staff living there and no one complained or tell us we should be quiet or go sleep so we really enjoyed time there. Beds were comfortable and kitchen very good equipped. Beautiful view as well.

    We absolutely loved the experience we had staying in the large home-like tent with comfortable bed and linen, beautiful view and our own nespresso machine. The countryside is beautiful with streams and mountains all around.

    Mattresses weren't terribly comfy, but nothing that would stop you from having a good night's sleep.

    Absolutely beautiful location (especially when you get a sunny, clear day). Well-situated for exploring Westfjords. Stefan is a very gracious host. One of the few hostels I've stayed at where all the guests seem intent on keeping a very calm and peaceful atmosphere. Definitely a mutual understanding that we all need good sleep to get through all of our adventures.

    Camping in the Westfjords

    Nothing the host could have influenced. We were rather unlucky with the weather, and strong winds and rain were not the best conditions for a camping trip, even a luxurious one. Fortunately, the sun was out when we arrived the previous evening, so we had the chance to appreciate the Westfjords in all their glory.

    The host was extremely friendly and helpful. We had rather poor weather over night, and he advised us on the forecast for the day and the best and safest route for our next leg of the journey (including nice breaks and places to go for lunch). He was further flexible to book us in for breakfast the next morning. Given the remote location, it is great to have that opportunity. We booked the tents, and it was one of the most comfortable camping experiences. Naturally, no camping trip comes with all the comforts of a hotel room, but with the spacious tent, small coffee maker, heater, real mattress beds, and small touches such as the eye mask to block out the sun, it came pretty close.

    The bathroom could have been cleaner and brighter. I can understand the perks of using a shared bathroom facility, but I was still expecting a better-conditioned one. The toilet upstairs was clean, though.

    I like the location; mountains and a cosy valley beautifully surround it. The host was friendly and greeted us even though we were late to arrive. The kitchen was fully equipped and was perfect for making meals. The dinning are was spacious too.

    Absolutely everything was great.

    What a fantastic place! A beautiful, secluded location in a valley in the West Fjords of Iceland. I would have loved to stay here longer but could only stay for one night. This house has so much atmosphere! I was told it is over 100 years old. Very friendly staff and had some great conversations with Páll. Well-equipped kitchen and very comfortable bed.

    I was the only one guest in this hostel that day. It was incredible experience, the owner is a very kind person and he told me about the story of the guesthouse, it's a very remote place in the Westfjords, this was my second time in Iceland but my first time in the Westfjords, and I loved my days in the remotest part of Iceland. Hopefully to visit the Westfjords someday again, and if I do it I will back to this accommodation again!

    I can't think of any drawbacks, except that it's a bit remote to go to Western Fjords.

    The view outside the accommodation is truly unbeatable, surrounded by mountains. It's probably the best hotel of our Iceland trip. The cabin is really cozy and well-equipped.
