very clean room with friendly staff and hot tub to use for few extra $$ , also very tasty breakfast with lot of options , easy parking .good location for visit
To safeguard their cleanliness, they restrict footwear inside and also tea coffee, etc in the room. That becomes a bit inconvenient. A water kettle and a microwave in the room would be helpful. Staff was excellent and helped us a lot.
We totally enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, food delicious and room very comfortable. It was a treat to be able to watch Icelandic horses in the fields from the windows of our room.
It’s a bed and breakfast, but breakfast cost extra? We didn’t have breakfast there, but someone use our room or my name for breakfast. Staff was nice, but most amenities will cost extras. Very nice view and cute shared area and patio. Very strong sulfur smell in shower. Still like this place a lot, it was a really cute idea hotel/bed and breakfast place to stay.

Beautiful location, friendly staff, very clean. The rooms are nicely decorated and very comfortable beds. One of our favorite things is no shoes when entering the place. We would definitely recommend this place.
It was amazing, super friendly staff, we took advantage of the laundry service and breakfast. The laubdry service was quick and all our clothes were neatly packed. Breakfast was good, with several options to choose from.
The property was very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. It is in a beautiful rural setting. There are several areas around the property that invite guests to sit down and relax.
