    At least there are a supermarket, a gas station and fish and chip restaurant near this guesthouse. Mývatn is kind of north area where unexpected weather could be happen. We met snow showers in September. There were roads closed For short period...

    The room and the bathrooms were clean. Our room had a sink in it which helped in the morning to brush our teeth, when everyone uses the bathroom. There was a small kitchen in our house which was clean too

    The Elda House exceeded our expectations and was our favorite guesthouse we stayed at in Iceland. The facilities were very clean, staff was friendly, and the location was perfect for staying near Myvatan. We loved the concept of sharing a kitchen...
