We stayed in one of the two-unit bunk houses. The room was small but we enjoyed it. Despite the howling winds, we were cozy. Our main goal was to hike to the glacier. We were provided with a great breakfast for hiking. It offered an array of food options that left us ready for a morning long trek. The staff was excellent. This is a no frills option that was more than adequate for what we sought. We literally left the parking lot and got on the trail for a fantastic three to four hour hike.

The breakfast is absolutely worth it and a lovely way to start the day. ##### Ben Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica 12 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Breakfast was amazing and had great selection. The check in was easy and fast. I thought that arriving at 9pm would be late, but there was a nice man at the reception building and was expecting me. The room was amazing, the best one I’ve had since I arrived in Iceland! It was spacious, clean, modern, etc. the bathroom was large and had everything you’d need. Bed and linens were comfy and good quality. 😊. I would stay here again if I ever in the area again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ea43b4ab-dfff-455f-9835-02db1c0590ee-1755005317977.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/78e7af1e-d2db-40ee-8727-500d4cf81bed-1755005319150.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tammy 19 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Only talked to the staff via email but they were responsive.
