Property was clean, but the water in the washroom and in the kitchen did not smell good - probably the sulfur smell which we did not get at other properties we stayed at. Better to stay in Selfoss as all facilities, grocery, coffee shops are in Selfoss.

We stayed at 3 different places during our week in Iceland and this was HANDS DOWN, our favorite! Beautiful apartment, great location between Vick and the airport. The apartment had EVERYTHING you need to cook and eat at home, or eat out and bring leftovers. Highly recommend!

Wonderful place to stay! The whole property was really spacious. Had a pretty big kitchen and dinning room for you and your friends to chill and enjoy. We did not have much time to explore the town but there was a big supermarket just 15 minutes drive apart. It was clean and comfy. Highly recommended!
