Upon arrival, there is a note to notify someone at a certain phone number for check in as NO ONE was on site or in the office. All fine in dandy for a local... But as I was a tourist from another country, WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK that could be done!!! Pretty bonehead note on door. So I waited at the the door for an hour. Luckily,,, someone else showed up. That person had a phone... What Einstein, would think someone from another country could get on email. If management wants a phone call,,, put a phone than either put a phone on outside door, how else can I call

We were stuck due to a blizzard and terrible/closed roads, and the cottage was perfect! We were even upgraded for free because a larger cabin was available.

This was the most spacious place we stayed out for our entire trip to Iceland, which was a welcome change of pace. The cottage itself was wonderful. We paid extra for a cottage with a hot tub, but the hot tub experience was not what we had expected. We had to fill it, which required an employee to do this for us as we could not figure out the written instructions (and that is on us and is not their fault) ... but when we went out to the hot tub after it was filling up, it had lots of hair, dirt, and dead bugs floating in the water. We felt like if we were paying extra for the hot tub, that is should be clean and ready for us to use. Otherwise, there were no complaints at all.

Liked: Amenities
Separate cabins, needs updating in terms of shower doors off the rails and coming out of the frame, exposed heating pipes next to toilet, valve on sauna broken, cluttered with extra furniture, two fridges (one broken), broken blinds that aren’t wide enough to block the light, no sponge or brush to wash dishes, dusty - needed thorough cleaning. Worst things was no one at check in desk! Had a sign to call them - can’t do that from US phone! Had to find a nice stranger and borrow their phone. Couldn’t get extra towels or help with any broken items. Never saw management.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The cottage was large and could sleep a family of 5. However the cottage is old and is in dire need of renovation. The water smelled of sulfur more than usual in Iceland. The mattresses were old and paper thin and extremely uncomfortable. The sauna didn't work.

The bathroom reeked of sewer gas smell so strongly that we had to keep the door shut the whole time. There was no one in the office at 9 pm when two young men tried to check in even though check in was supposed to be available till 10.

Clean and spartan- beautiful river the place looks out to, and good little municipal pool/baths where you can shower in comfort (what is in the cabin is for emergency use only!). Hot tub was ancient and empty.
