We were very pleased with how well this cabin was laid out, with lots of room in the common areas so that several people could be cooking or working at the table without feeling crowded. Everything was clean, up to date and in very good condition. The kitchen was easy to work in. Bathroom was well-appointed and worked out well.
It had not been clear to us from the description of the cabin of how steep the stairs are to get up to the loft. One of our party said it was more like a ladder. The loft is not an ideal accommodation for older adults.
We appreciated having the use of the washer and dryer; thank you for the clear and detailed instructions including pictures. We did not use the hot pot but again the instructions were so clear we were confident we could have used it easily.
The cabin was so cozy! We appreciated the radiant heat in the floor.
And the location made it very easy to get to everything we wanted to explore in the south of Iceland. We had privacy and lots of space around the cabin, yet it was just a few minutes into town or onto the road to go places.
There were a few points that we wanted to mention for future renters. A minor one was that only one bath towel was provided per person; some of us like to use a separate towel when we wash our hair. The other point seemed more serious. Since the front door locks automatically when it closes, and only one house key was provided, we took precautions to make sure we wouldn't get locked out. Especially in the middle of winter, if we all went out to see the Northern Lights (which we saw on several nights) and the door closed and locked, we could be out in the cold with no phone, no car keys, and few if any neighbors around who could have helped. We were thinking that a second house key would solve the problem. One key could be left in the lock box for emergencies.
All in all it was a great stay in a great cabin and we thank our hosts for having everything set up so well for us. We appreciated all the detailed information they provided about the cabin location, codes for locks, how to use things in the cabin and how to contact them if and when necessary. They were prompt, friendly and courteous whenever we did get in touch with them. Thanks for everything!
