Had a lovely stay here! Beautiful location and unique stay. My only issue was not being able to get info about my pod number and lock box key until a few hours before we got there. Myself or Expedia couldn’t contact them through the number provided. But once we got the info it was amazing!

Comfortable Pods, good enough heating options. Parking next to Pods. For kitchen and bathroom areas, you need to go to common area/building which was convenient and clean.

Room was clean, beds comfortable and quiet over all. The light on all night outside the door is kind of annoying and in the middle of the cold night the heater wasn’t keeping the room warm enough.

The pod is extremely small, and extremely cold, it uses electronic heater to heat the pod, whee ed n the temperature is low, it can not heat up the pod well. The last day we encountered a wind gust of 64 mph, the whole pod and the beds were shaking. The kitchen and shower area are warm, clean, has internet and can cook

Amazing scenery. Our pod unfortunately had a leak in the ceiling and we got water in our room. Very cold room during the night and bathrooms were too far from some pods, we had to drive because of the cold there. Impossible to get a hold of the host although it did work out in the end. No internet in the pods and no signal or very bad in most places of the facility.

Perfect stay, beautiful environment, washroom and common area very clean and efficient. Only thing I messaged them the day before the stay because they didn’t send the code for my pod I booked, but they did respond the day off the stay which was a little nerve racking seeing all the reviews about this. But over ball it was beautiful, good location near the main waterfall; skogafoss

I arrived late and my pod had been given to someone else. No problem - a very helpful young man came by and set me up in a different pod. The place is in a spectacular location and the pods are super-comfortable, cozy, and warm. I would stay there again in an instant.

The cabins had mixed reviews when I booked. We showed up & everything was great to start. The Cabin was cozy & warm with a heater. You have to walk about 100 feet to the bathrooms & kitchen area. This night was VERY windy & the cabin was not really insulated or warm besides the small space heater. I Imagine that during the warmer months it would be nice without wind. The cabin was absolutely freezing & the wind was howling the entire night. There was like banging & the bed was shaking at the wind. It almost felt that the cabin would blow away. So maybe good for the summer months with no environmental issues happening? The bathrooms & kitchen were warm & clean.

!!WARNING BEFORE!!! You need a code to check in! And staff don’t respond!!!! We had to escalate to Expedia and thank god they helped us. We were supposed to get a code 24 hours before and got it an hour before check in ONLY BECAUSE Expedia put out at urgent request. We had already booked another hotel in case. Another family was not so lucky and arrived with no way to contact the property as the owners don’t answer so they were left out in the cold with no where to stay. Please please don’t book here unless you have the flexibility not to get a code! Honestly would just avoid it here because of the stress. It was a beautiful location and nice enough “pod” but not worth the anxiety we had. It’s not cheap and you can stay in better places for the same price with actual owners who care.

Avoid rush hour of using kitchen and shower/ bathroom. There is a waiting time when many people try to cook and eat. It’s charming in general, close to tons of epic scenic ares!

I was hiking all day in an area with no cell service. Once I arrived onsite I only had one bar and did not receive the code until I drove to an area with cell service. By that time it was easier to go back to Reykjavik. Missed two hikes I had planned. Looks like a nice place and a great location. Its a shame I could not connect with the host.
