Great scenary, very confortable place and easy to reach for the city. The kitchen was fully equiped and we also got home made bread with butter & jam for breakfast. The sauna & hot hub were amazing. Elsa provided loads of details about the stay and not only. Preaceful & quiet, just perfect.

Wonderful stay and wonderful host! Very cozy and large house, so we were able to rest a lot after some longer hikes. Ultimately great host, who told us a lot instightful info about the eastern part of Iceland as well as he mentioned a set of hidden gems. It is a must stay if you travel through north-east/east part of the island. It is also a great place in terms of close location to different attractions (Stuðlagil canyon, Hengifoss). Highly recommended!

Maybe the best Guesthouse I stayed at while in Iceland. Clean, organised, respectful guests and clear rules. Receptionist was very helpful. Rooms and bathroom were equipped with most things you need despite being a Guesthouse.

You are welcomed into a private home, with a distinctly “homey” feel. The room and bathroom facilities are comfortable. You can use the kitchen to prepare your breakfast, with homemade bread. (I would have liked some fruit juice, though). The accommodation is easy to reach and reasonably priced.

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.
