I wanted to give a better review because we loved the location. It was right by the water with beautiful sunsets, and it is a quiet setting; however in room #6, it was loud from people walking on the roof for the hot tub and the neighbors were so noisy. The hotel never gave any instructions on checking in. I had driven to the hotel looking for an office to check-in, but only found housekeeping ladies who told me that I was supposed to receive an email with check-in instructions. Never received an email but they did send an email that there will be no hot water for 2 days. Also our heater never worked and our 2nd night was so windy and cold outside. They seem to be aware that the heater was broken because they confirmed it when I messaged them. They sent someone to fix it the following day but he left a trail of dirt on the floor from the door to our bathroom. Also no instructions on checking out so I had to message them. The only good thing to say is the bed was comfy and there is a refrigerator. The roll down shade needs to be replaced on the door because there are big holes so sunlight comes through when you want the room to be darkened.

Disappointing

Standard room showed ocean view and a bright room. It was dark, under the stairs to the hot tub above, had a view into the rooms across from it, or of buoys and other gear outside the window as decoration. People went up and down stairs to the hottub right outside the window so blinds had to be closed. It was not as advertised. They said Tripadvisor chooses pictures not them so weren't sympathetic. Don't get this room if you go!

Don't get the Standard Room!

Lovely peaceful seafront location great for sunrise, sunset and middle of the night northern lights viewing ! 

30 mins drive from Reykjavik, 45 from Keflavik airport. 10 min drive to shops. 
Beautiful Hafnarfjörður harbour 15mins (visit Brikk for breakfast) 
Car essential.

We stayed in superior room, double bed and small living area then open stair ladder to 2 single beds at a mezzanine level. 
Size of accomodation was hard to judge by online pictures but just big enough for us 3 adults, would be perfect for 2 adults and 2 small children but bear in mind may not be suitable for very young children due to the open mezzanine aspect of the room.
Warm, very comfortable beds and pillows
Great shower, towels and shower gel provided.
TV, fridge, kettle and hairdryer, plugs with usb points.
No catering facilities so come prepared as there was only 2 glasses and 2 of the smallest espresso style cups for coffee, tea (with milk creamer sachets) which was provided.

Disappointed with the shared hot tubs, one was half filled/half empty so unusable, the other didn’t seem to have any jets or buttons to get it going so if this is a must for you beware. 
Sauna was nice but didn’t get very hot and couldn’t find where to access more water (maybe it was being taken from the other hot tub earlier!)
There is no point of call on site, so issue was not raised.

Having said that those facilities were just a bonus to us as we just wanted somewhere away from the bright lights of the city to enjoy the Northern lights…and we did !!

Great find out of the city

Love this little place on a small peninsular. So peaceful.  Unique and perfect. You do need a car if you stay here.  We stayed for 3 nights. There are approximately 25 rooms in 4 different styles and  blocks around a courtyard/car park. Its off the beaten track, so make sure you have your supplies before arriving. Plenty of parking. There is a restaurant, but only open to group bookings. The two hot tubs and sauna are fab in the evening. We watch the Northern Lights  from the hot tub one clear evening :) fabulous. Our room was spacious and comfortable with a kettle, towels and robes which were very handy for the hot tub.

Perfect unique quiet place

Unique spot on quiet coastline, nice location for Reykjavik and Sky Lagoon just outside the city. Ocean and views on three sides, horses grazing, incredible sunrise, sunset, aurora viewing potential! AMAZING rooftop sauna and hot tubs, unique rooms (we stayed in 2 different ones) with lots of light and heat. Early and self check in available, staff very friendly. We ate dinner at Hotel Viking, their sister property and it was delicious. No microwaves, but mini fridges were in the rooms. 

Hot Tubs and Great Views!

Worst hotel we stayed at in Iceland. Room was dirty on arrival with long black hair in the shower as well as no body wash or shampoo. Bed sheets had holes in them. The next day, we wanted housekeeping to make up our rooms, apparently that only meant making the bed (on the main floor, housekeeping didnt even attempt to go upstairs). Garbage was no emptied, towels were not replaced, still no body wash or shampoo, dirty glasses were not exchanged for clean ones as well as the complimentary coffee and tea were not replenished either. Do your selves a favor and skip on staying here!

Dirty Rooms and Poor Housekeeping

Lovely place.The cottage was big enough for the 5 of us.It has 3 beds in total.we unfortunately didn’t spend enough time to enjoy the place more as we got there late and left in the morning.Location is great it’s Very close to Reykjavik.Overall it was a comfortable stay.

Beautiful

The facility is certainly unique.  Family suite rooms matched our needs exactly.  They were clean and ready when we arrived.  Sights out our room across the bay were great; we actually saw a volcano erupting in the distance.   I only wish we could have had breakfast at the site; either included in the rate, or with a sit down menu.

Unique facility

This is a village style property by the sea side. There are a number a one level units with adequate parking. There is also a restaurant (? as it was closed because we arrived late in the evening and leave early in the morning) There are decorations of fisherman village all around. As it is at the end of a narrow strip of land sticking out into the sea, the area is quite and peaceful. The place is not difficult to find. Took us 15 minutes drive from Reykjavik. It is also very convenient to drive to the airport as well. We have a room with bunk bed combo (2 at the bottom and 1 on top), The room size was on the small side. However, its got everything we need including shower room. We cannot get the TV working. Maybe it was broken or the remote batteries were dead. It is no big deal for us as we just need to sleep for the night.
Note that check in is in a nearby hotel but since we pre-paid everything, they sent me a message saying the room will be unlock with the key inside on the table. When we got there we found the room was lock. Since there are no reception on site, we need to phone them. So be prepared that you can make local phone calls. Once we called, there is a lady came within minutes and give us the key to our room. She explained to my kid about why they need to have the room locked but my kid did not understand. Anyway I think it is a good idea to keep the rooms locked. 

Nice stay for a family of three

 We loved this location right on the water. There were horses near the parking lot which added to the picturesque scene. The buildings are quaint and done in the old style - which is somewhat unusual to see now in Iceland where most structures are concrete or covered in sheet metal, likely due to earthquake building codes and harsh weather. These units had sod roofs and some had stone walls. We had a comfortable quiet night here - good blackout curtains were helpful. The atmosphere is peaceful and quiet.
