    The host is a super friendly person. There are two hot tubs available and there’s not so many rooms in that motel so they never get crowded, actually we were alone there all the time. There’s a free parking right in front of the property.

    Everything was great for our last night in Iceland. The location meant we could see the peninsula before we flew home. I liked the way the bedrooms were separated, the big bathroom and the parking right outside.

    We really enjoyed staying here! Close to the blue lagoon and close to the Keflavík airport. Half hour driving to Reykjavik and easy access to everything. The room and bathroom very clean and they also have a kitchen you can use! Very enjoyable place!
