Jó helyen, szép környezetben, tiszta rendezett szobák.
Pros:

Szép helyen kilátásssal a vízesésre, az 1-es út mellett. MInden rendben volt, tiszta rendezett szobák, ingyen kv és a reggeli benn volt az árban. Bejutás könnyen ment, parkoló volt szabad.

Cons:

nem volt iylen.

We feel like staying in the hostel. There's nothing but bed and bathroom in the room nothing else. Everything else are downstairs the coffee water everything and we also need to carry our luggage up the stairs that's one thing you don't like the most

Pessimo ci sarebbe da chiedere il rimborso
Pros:

Poco o niente

Cons:

Le camere hanno dimensioni adatte per i puffi. Nel bagno vi è un lavandino di dimensioni inadeguate con inoltre il mobiletto sporgente per cui non si poteva usare.
Non c’era possibilità di appoggiare le valigie.

Vicinissima alla cascata
Pros:

Posizione vicino alla cascata. Ottima la colazione.

Cons:

Stanza minuscola. L’assenza di personale ricettivo rende l’accoglienza un po’ fredda. Anche la gestione della possibile cancellazione del soggiorno dovuta a maltempo è stata poco supportiva.

Pros:

Die Nähe zum Skogarfoss ist toll! Das Frühstück ist sehr gut.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer ist zu klein, das Waschbecken so winzig, dass man nicht weiß wie man Zähne putzen soll. Das Wasser riecht extrem nach Schwefel, aber das ist für Island nicht ungewöhnlich. Der Fernseher hat nicht funktioniert, er zeigt zwar alle Sender hat aber keinen Empfang. Betten waren nicht bequem.
