Guest Reviews

• corina (8/5): -
• Annette (7/5): - Lage - abseits von Selfoss, Schotterweg gut befahrbar Großzügiges Haus, Zimmeraufteilung etwas besonders: Großes Haus hat kein Wohnzimmer, nur eine Küche. Kleines Haus mit Küche und Wohnzimmer in einem Raum, aber nur durch Wintergarten des großen Hauses erreichbar Sehr bequeme Betten Sehr ruhig
• Mickael (9/5): -
• Mihaela (9/5): - The accomodation was very spacious and had a huge private yard with plenty of parking spaces. The nature was just amazing and we were lucky enough to watch the northern lights because the house is a bit isolated from the rest of the city! :) The hosts were helpful and very welcoming. The location is perfect because all the sightseeing places were on 1-1.5 hour drive from the accomodation. One small inconvenience was the lack of a shower in the cottage by the hot tub, which made things a bit tricky for the couple staying there because they had to use the main house and walk back outside to their room. We also felt the cleanliness in the kitchen and bathroom was slightly lacking, but we still had a wonderful time regardless. :)
• Inmaculada (8/5): Muy recomendable el alojamiento. - El alojamiento está muy cerca de Selfoss, lo que es muy práctico porque tienes a mano varios supermercados y servicios. La zona es muy tranquila y no hay contaminación lumínica, ideal para poder ver las auroras. El apartamento está en muy buenas condiciones y cuenta con una buena climatización, lo que lo hace muy confortable. El anfitrión fue muy agradable: vino a saludarnos personalmente y se mostró disponible en todo momento por si necesitábamos algo, indicándonos dónde podíamos encontrarle.
• Annemarie (9/5): Goed, en raad de accomodatie aan! - Mooie afgelegen plek! Vriendelijke host!! Doet zijn uiterste best voor je Krap op de 2- persoonskamer
• Amy (9/5): Cosy little cabin in great location. - Lovely little cabin setup, perfect location (middle of nowhere so got amazing northern lights!!), toasty warm inside at all times. The host lives in the cabin next door and was super helpful for anything we needed and really friendly. Lovely staff and would definitely go back :)
• Rannveig Aðalbjörg (10/5): - Nice new modern cabins
• Marco Bonatesta (8/5): -
• KEHUA (9/5): - 很舒适的度假小屋，温暖，干净。 厨房的刀具不够锋利
• Jordi (10/5): - The owner has been in contact with us at all times to know how everything was going and if we needed anything.
• Barbara (7/5): Geht so - moderne Architektur und neue saubere Betten ein bisschen schmuddelig, Brösel in den Laden, wenig Möglichkeiten Dinge abzustellen oder aufzuhängen, die Zimmer sind in verschiedene Hütten aufgeteilt, ein paar Spinnen außen an den Fenstern, die Dusche im Haupthaus ist verstopft, die Fenster und Glasflächen nicht geputzt
• Алена (6/5): - Затишний будиночок, з укомплектованою кухнею. Ліжка тільки для невисоких людей , тому що стоять між двома тісними стінами. Ліжко диван на якому незручно спати. В ванній кімнаті жодного крючка немає для речей. Немає місця для сушки речей. Дорога до будинку ще не зроблена.
• Sandra (10/5): - Up-to-date communications. Modern and clean accommodation. Recommended, if you want to stay for several days near the Golden Circle.Precise access instructions, everything else without any comments. Too much emphasis on waste separation. We have no problem with separation (we also separate them at home)! However, if someone wants waste separation for six groups, then they should prepare 6 different bins, not order that a guest who is in Iceland for the first time should look for group waste islands in the neighborhood. While the other guests don't separate their waste at all ;(.
• Sandra (1/5): would not stay here again - We liked the hot tub eventhough we had to fill it everyday. The host was very responsive to our questions We didn't like that there were flies and spiders, we must've killed at least 20 flies. Also, we had a hard time opening the door to one of the cabins. There wasn't a place to congregate, one cabin had a sofa but the other one had the table. Also, the 3rd sleeping area was separate and uncovered so it is very dangerous for the elderly and kids. We weren't sure exactly which cabins were ours since there were 4 separate cabins. There were no instructions for anything. The dryer didn't work properly, it gave us an error to drain the water but there was no water. It was midnight so we didn't want to bother the host.
• Color (10/5): Exceptional - 3 toilets Curtains are not enough to prevent light
• Tomasz (9/5): Great base for sightseeing! - Great housing complex. Modern, clean and cozy, in the middle of quiet fields. Equipped with essentials. Tap water in the complex is sulfury and rather undrinkable so please have your own drinking water with you (there was none there). The location is still not on the map so make sure to be there before dark or you may have difficulty to find it (it is further, at the end of a road indicated on google maps with big eagles on the gate). There is not enough trash bins for segregation. I would suggest the administrator to provide all required information one day before check-in as some of the information I read only after check-out.
• Rebecca (4/5): Weird and difficult, not worth the money. We do have many family inside jokes about it now. - Quiet. Selfoss is a good central location for a few days. Gaining access was very difficult. We called the Greenkey host and they acted like we were idiots. They had clearly never been to the property. There were MANY doors and MANY locks. After finally getting inside, it was sweltering. No AC, of course, and the giant wall of windows makes you feel exposed and creates an indoor oven. This is probably nice in winter. It was awful in July. If you rent the entire "villa" (HA! More like "Amazon build-a-house), some of your party will need to walk outside to get to and from their bedroom and the main house. Inconvenient in the rain, I wouldn't do it in winter or with young children. Not enough towels, one small one per guest. Refrigerator was never cold enough despite turning it to the lowest setting. Instructions for sorting trash arrived on day 4. Outside trash containers were overflowing on day 1.
• Amanda (8/5): Great place for relaxation and quiet time. - The property was nice and secluded. A little dar from selfoss down a gravel road. The place was great. Just a little small for a 2 year old to run around inside :)
• Ali (10/5): My stay was amazing. The house design is very nice, fully equipped, and situated in a very quiet place. The location is - Design and the cleanliness of the house Nothing
• Hilde (10/5): Amazing stay in beautiful new house - Modern, clean and super new! Beautiful silent surrounding. We saw the Northern lights on our first evening. The beds were very comfortable (be aware, one room has a double bed and one room has a single bed). Selfoss and many things to visit nearby. The shower smelled like sulfur but you get used to it. The oven is nice but there were no oven mitts or baking paper, would be nice. The smoke detector kept going off because there was no hood for cooking. Luckily the owner could stop the sound.
• Aphrodite (9/5): Superb - We loved the space and the location was ideal. The cabins were very clean and equipped with everything you may need. The host was very responsive and we would recommend the cabins without doubt. Thank you for a comfortable stay.
• Anonymous (5/5): A disappointment, and over priced for the facilities provided . - The property was modern. Unpractical layout, didn’t want to leave my children in a separate part of the house. Hot tub wasn’t working , which was a massive disappointment as it was the reason we booked the lodge. We won’t be returning
• Jakub (10/5): Exceptional -
• Melisa (10/5): Exceptional - The owner was really friendly and helped us if we had any questions.
• Ólafur (8/5): Very good -
• Maria (10/5): Wonderful stay. - The location, the space available, the amenities were great. Super quiet place with everything needed for a wonderful stay. Just a small issue, as we had requested a cot and when we arrived the cot wasn’t at the property (despite the property having confirmed that it would be there) and the beds are not big enough to have a little baby sleeping with the parents. The cot was then delivered the day after our arrival.
