Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
The apartment is in a great location just a few minutes drive from the town. It has a shared kitchen which gave it a 'backpackers' feel but everyone was really nice.
The landscape around is beautiful, and the host is flexible and accommodating. It is a decent place to stay if you are a solo traveler or someone tight on budget.
Despite the friendly reception lady and the stunning view from the front of the building, the main problem is the design of the place. Many rooms lead straight off a (dark but well-equipped) communal kitchen area, and so noise travels easily. The description of the place is ambiguous and doesn't really paint an accurate picture that staying here does, in many ways, feel like an expensive youth hostel. Definitely overpriced compared to everywhere else we stayed during two weeks in Iceland.
