Excellent location right off the Ring road. The room is excellently appointed - especially the kitchen. There was even an oven! Situated in a pretty area next to a stream - there’s even a little picnic area. I’d gladly book again!

Good place for a stop over if you're travelling. Comfortable beds. Nice bathroom with a washing machine. A kitchen with basic equipment. If you're a light sleeper this place may not be for you as it's right by a major road and fairly noisy.

Nice quiet room with a view overlooking a river. We were there on a holiday and they were short staff, but everything was handled without a hitch. Highly recommend as a stay to or from Snaefellsnes Penninsula.
