Comfortable Pods, good enough heating options. Parking next to Pods. For kitchen and bathroom areas, you need to go to common area/building which was convenient and clean.

The property is so peaceful and beautiful, I loved waking up each morning to the peaceful landscape. The kitchen is clean and has everything you need to make your meals. I’ll be back the next time I travel to Iceland.

I was hiking all day in an area with no cell service. Once I arrived onsite I only had one bar and did not receive the code until I drove to an area with cell service. By that time it was easier to go back to Reykjavik. Missed two hikes I had planned. Looks like a nice place and a great location. Its a shame I could not connect with the host.

Room was clean, beds comfortable and quiet over all. The light on all night outside the door is kind of annoying and in the middle of the cold night the heater wasn’t keeping the room warm enough.

There didn’t appear to be a lot of guests but we were in one of the pods furtherest away from the bathroom/kitchen area. A long walk in the wind and cold at night for sure. Overall

Overall clean and exactly as expected. The pod was cold even with the heater on and there was extreme wind on the night we stayed that was extremely loud. The communal space is nice, but the washrooms were under stocked in terms of paper towel and toilet paper.

The little cabin, kitchen and bathroom area are very nice and clean, but the phone numbers they list for help are not answered. When we got up this morning we found 3 people sleeping in the kitchen. They claimed that they did not receive proper check in instructions to get in their cabin. This place is completely unsupervised and the doors to general area are left open, not safe!!!

WiFi did not reach sleeping pods. For some reason put us in the furthest away pod from the main area even though only 2 were occupied out of 24. Doesn’t stock main area very well with paper towels or soap.

The property manager would not give us key code to get keys despite like 20 msgs. They were supposed to give us the code 24 hours in advance but they gave like only 5-7 hours before check in time. We had to call Expedia multiple times and even they couldn’t reach the property manager. I will not recommend this place to anyone. It just added frustration to us. Terrible.

The pod is extremely small, and extremely cold, it uses electronic heater to heat the pod, whee ed n the temperature is low, it can not heat up the pod well. The last day we encountered a wind gust of 64 mph, the whole pod and the beds were shaking. The kitchen and shower area are warm, clean, has internet and can cook

Very difficult to communicate with the host ,phone calls will not answer or hang up, WiFi is very bad connection due to location surrounding. I booked 2 pods ,but one of them didn't have key in the lock box and the pop was not ready , with the help from all other tenants end up no where. after almost hour later a men came to looking for us , give a us the key and he cannot contact us by email.

The property owner never sent me an instruction email. When I connected them to get a code and key, they provided no information other than a code. The code didn’t work, the main building look abandoned. It was terrible and felt like a scam. I’m hoping Expedia can help me get a refund because the property owner appears to be irresponsible and unaccountable. Do NOT book here. Expedia should not list them!

The people who are involved are good. Thats not the issue. I slept here with my daughter one night. Its winter (end of march) The small heater didnt do anything. For the area there needs to be two heaters for each person. The wind was so crazy that night i didnt sleep. I thought we were going to blow away. Honestly i was that scared and cold all night.

Great experience here, only recommendation is to have the spots labeled, someone parked in the spot for our cabin and we had to park by the front and walk all the way over there.
