The room was nice, bed was comfortable. Breakfast was not available, you must bring everything you need. The place is quite remote. During the winter, it’s probably a wonderful place for the Northern Lights. We were there during the summer. The location is off a very rough, gravel road which we didn’t learn until the day before check-in.

The place was very clean. The two kitchens were well stocked with cereals, plates, bowls, spoons and forks etc. As such there were no staff at he location. Just key in the door to check-in and leave the key in the door when check-out.

Stayed in one of the modern cabins facing towards the river. Geese were running around with their little ones, it was quiet and beautiful. We were looking for the remote experience and that's what we got. Be ready to drive on gravel road away from the main junction. Staff was helpful in pointing us to the actual lodging on the map. Two fully stocked shared kitchen was useful in our trip and we enjoyed our stay! Our actual door was broken and a shower curtain should be installed.

Beautiful property and accomodations. We had room 24. New, large room, clean and all the amenities we needed. There was a kitchen and eating area where we could warm up some dinnner. We stayed here on our way back from visiting the east side of Dettifoss falls which worked out great. We would highly recommend.

Good stay!

Good stay for someone wanting to be near Dettifoss. Room was good and clean, but was very small. Also our Wifi didn't work and heat didn't seem to work. But a great stay close to the waterfall which is what we were looking for. Would recommend and would stay again when in the area

Wonderful area, loved our room with nice bath soaps and products. The common area was convenient as well, and the beds were supper comfy, out into had a porch with lovely views as well. Check in was a little confusing but it is a new facility so be aware of that and they are still building it and creating their process, will stay again!

The cabin we were in was actually 5km away from the main check-in building but the employee was super helpful and gave us the exact location for it on Google maps. The accommodations were clean and comfy with a nice seating area, tv, balcony, and good quality products in the shower. We had a lovely view of the river. The kitchen is less than 100ft away and very spacious for dining.

We stayed in a nice new wing of the property. We didn’t see any staff at all, key was left in the door for us and we were instructed to leave it in the door when departing. There is no restaurant or cafe on site, 35 minutes one way to closest place. Luckily we had supplies from the grocery store with us and made do after a long day on the road. Facilities were clean and it is a very quiet location to say the least.

Really the only bad thing getting there. Several klm of bad gravel road takes you to check in. That’s not where the lodging is. After check in you drive another 8 klm on right gravel to the rooms. We have a small car. The sleeping room was great facing north fir the Northern Lights. Room next to us had outside lights on all night. Community kitchen is great.

Location is 15 mins more away from the spot pinned on Google maps. It's gravel road so not feeling good for spending extra 30 mins every time travelling to-and-fro. Our shower floods a bit in the first night, and we call the host for help. Luckily, there is another empty room so we're allowed to take shower there. The shower is fixed on the morning of the next day (the time we're out sightseeing), and everything is fine on the second night. Another minor issue is the room is not sound proof so it's a bit annoying if your neighbours don't stop talking at night. They have TV in the room which is rare in the accommodation in Iceland. The share kitchen is tidy, spacious with sufficient utensils that makes cooking easy.
