What's nearby

  • Iceland is a magical place. I've never seen so many rainbows in such a short time. Single or double, every day we had a show! The glacier near Höfn is quite grandiose, but this rainbow with dark skies and great sun kinda stole the show! #Golden

One of our favorite spots that we stayed at during our Iceland trip. We were able to see the northern lights the night we stayed. Loved the cleanliness of the room. The shower and toilet were all in one but large bathroom. Would stay here again.

Great beds-soft but not too soft. Note-only 1 pillow each. Only drawback was the shower—it soaked almost the whole bathroom.
