This hostel was good. Beds were comfy but the room was a bit small. The kitchen/dining area was nice but we could only find one bowl. Overally it was a good place to crash for the night with some nice views in the area

Stunning little hostel surrounded by beautiful nature. I booked almost 2 months before and got a great deal. Service was good, rooms were small but also great. One of the best place I stayed at during my entire trip through the Ring Road. The room felt comfy, clean, and had a built-in cushion bench next to the HUGE window in the room.
