This is a great place to stay right between all the glacier activities and Hofn. Everything felt very new and well maintained. It’s small but very well designed. Bed and sheets were very comfortable. There is small kitchen with everything you need. Would stay here again!

We’re glad we stayed here. The room was comfortable and very clean. The kitchenette was handy for a quick breakfast. Appreciated the coffee that they provided. Bed and bath were comfortable. The overall site appears under construction, so not beautiful. But it was quiet. And the view out the main window of our room was amazing!
