The pictures are misleading. We never saw that small cottage and we never saw that large dining room. Perhaps because there really wasn't much service. Everything was left up to the guests, including washing your own dishes and putting them away with the same towel that everyone else used. The rooms were too small, we could barely fit our suitcases. The location was quiet, but far from the nearest town and inconvenient if you need anything (like food). It's in an isolated area that is very difficult to get to. This wouldn't be so bad if the night stay was about $100 Euro, but it was over $200 Euro!... It felt like a classic example of price gouging.

I'm sorry you did not have more positive stay with us. The cottage is just by the road to the house, I'm not sure how you could have missed it... The large dining room is in the barn, next to the main house. Only large house in the area... We where busy preparing it for a wedding we will have there soon, sorry if I did not have more time talking to you and servicing you and the family. One of the most valuable aspect of our Hostel for guests is how remote we. If that is not your thing, then staying in town should be preferred. We are a Hostel with shared kitchen, welcome for guests to use. You should not expect us to do your dishes! Kind regards Stefan

A great place for planning Hornstandir trips
I think it’s important to reiterate that this is a hostel, not a hotel. It’s simpler, more rustic. Suited to casual, affordable, more intimate lodging. Not for those who feel awkward sharing space with strangers. However, the rooms are comfortable, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the scenery is about beautiful. There is onsite laundry, and the optional breakfast service is delightful. My biggest gripe is that the wifi did not reach my room (2) so, I had to stay in the dining room to use my computer.

This place should be the holy ground
The hostel is decent, nothing above ordinary (other then the super nice host and assistant Emily), but the LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION.. is mind blowing. Many guests who stay there for one night end up canceling their plans and staying for 2 nights so you might as well book 2. They get completely full.

Fín þjónusta en illa unnin þrif.
Starfsfólkið hefur mjög þægilega nærveru og er kurteist en staðurinn er ekki nógu vel þrifinn. Það þarf líka að hafa kveikt á öllum ofnum og kynda húsið og starfsfólkið mætti vera snyrtilegra.

wir hatten zwei Zimmer gebucht und dafür das großzügig eingerichtete Sommerhaus bekommen. Frühstück haben wir dazu gebucht, es war reichlich, wir haben uns wohl gefühlt. Gemanagt wurde alles vom Vater der Wirtsfamilie, der Kontakt war sehr angenehm, wir haben viele gute Tips bekommen.

Prix scandaleux pour hôtel miteux
Cette guest house est tout simplement un scandale. Elle ne devrait pas être proposée sur hotel.com. Elle se situe à plus de 20 km de Flatery. Nous etions deux mais avions porté notre choix sur une chambre quadruple pour etre à l aise... Nous sommes tombés sur une chambre minuscule (10 m² environ) où noys ne pouvions même pas poser nos valises au sol car il n y avait pas la place ! De plus les murs étaient si fins que nous entendions très nettement les conversations de la chambre à côté puis les ronflements. Si nous savions que les douches étaient partagées nous ne nous attendions pas à trouver des douches peu reluisantes style vieille piscine. Et ne parlons pas des WC... Le tout pour une nuit à plus de 200€ !!! Je fais beaucoup de road trip dans le monde entier et je peux ecrire qu il s agit du pire rapport qualité prix jamais connu dans un hébergement tous pays du monde confondus. Cet hôtel est à fuir et j en veux à hôtels.com de le conseiller et demande le remboursement de cette nuit.
