6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
Despite the scruffy exterior and location close to the city dump, the interior was very well maintained, clean and sleepable. The area outside the building did not smell either (only the drive to/from the building) Good as a jumping off point near Reykjavik if you want to go do the golden circle as you are already in the outskirts of town.

Clear check-in instruction was provided. The place is very quite and the view was beautiful. There is a Kitchen which is very convenient to make some simple meals. Suggestion to the property owner: at least provide some facial tissue in the room, shampoo/conditioner and shower gel in the shower room. Thanks!

Needed a place to sleep. The guesthouse was with clean rooms. It was quiet. You really need a car to get there. The price was cheap. We got what we needed. Will book again. There are no shops around.

We absolutely LOVED Viðines Guesthouse. The morning cleaning staff is so helpful and kind that we all cried before leaving. The location is beautiful, while not being too far from Reykjavik. The sense of freedom, especially as far as meals are concerned, is invaluable (no schedule imposed whatsoever. Only "negative" point: it is REALLY time for a new toaster! And the free coffee runs out every other day!

Peaceful place to stay away from the city

The guesthouse and its location were very good. Due to its remote location, the best way to commute is by taking a rental car. It was a bit strange that Google maps doesn't have the route map for the last 1.5km to the guesthouse. However, there was a signboard to the guesthouse which helped. The stay was pleasant and the kitchen & bathrooms were in very good condition. The only downside was that our grocery items were stolen from the common refrigerator. So, please be careful and store the non-perishable goods in the room instead of the refrigerator.
