This was really nice house to stay in. The kitchen was really well equipped. We had a good parking spot right in front of the house. Nice quiet area in the living parts of the town. We came to enjoy the Vök baths (really great place) and ended up in an extreme snowstorm. We got an experience of a lifetime in the canyons near the town.

    Sigga is a great host! Friendly and very helpful giving advice of where to visit in the area. The room was perfect. Plenty of space, very comfortable bed, and all modern decoration, warm and clean. Great shower. Kitchenette had everything I needed, and I easily managed to cook several meals there. Easy to find (literally just off route 1). A great place to stop for a few days to explore the area. Highly recommend.

    Lovely hosts, cute hostel with a lot of character and a very well-equipped kitchen. The horse ride was incredible and one of the highlights of our whole trip! A portion of the drive to get to the hostel was gravel but very doable with our small car.
