  Little renovated farm house into a dorm with four rooms, shared bath upstairs and downstairs. The property is on a farm and they bring the guests fresh milk from their cows. Full kitchen, some food provided, shared common area with TV and WiFi. Mear minutes from two major waterfalls on the Ring Road, close by trail open in the summer that traverses the highland between Eyjafjallajokull and Katla, short drive to Vik and the beaches. Some moderate repairs being made but overall very welcoming and accomodating, especially for those who are wanting a rural setting.

  This place is a gem in the farm, it looks better inside than outside. Modern, comfy, clean facility, strong wifi, well equipped kitchen. The host is a fine friendly gentleman. Definitely recommend.
  Drawback? Some of the supplies in the kitchen is running low when we were there.

  Simply excellent. I stayed 2 nights here out of a 14 day tour of the ring road in late August, and this was one of the best. The owner / host is a great man, I found him especially generous and welcoming. The building is newly renovated smarter in real life than in the photos. It's modern, functional, clean and warm. It has good quality double glazing making it very well insulated and quiet, so even the road facing room I stayed in was silent. And properly fitted blackout blinds (amazing how many other accoms neglect this essential aspect). Beds were decent, clean, comfy, supportive, noticeably better than some I had to endure elsewhere. Finally the location is superb being so nearby to sights like the puffin beach near Vik, the black sand desert with the remains of the DC10, and two spectacular waterfalls Skogafoss and Seljalandfoss. Highly recommended.

  Great Guesthouse in the middle of a little farm, very clean and convenient. The host leaves everything needed for the breakfast including fresh milk! The check-in is very flexible. Nice place to spend few nights.

  Great Airbnb location in south Iceland. It is in the front of a farm and will smell like it outside, but the inside was comfortable. Definitely use the downstairs shower if available.
