The place was very clean, equipped with a large kitchen and different common rooms to hang out. The room was great and the beds comfortable. The whole guesthouse was probably renovated a while back because it's better live than on the pictures on booking.

    I stayed at Heidi Guesthouse with my dad for one night on our two-week trip to Iceland. As it was a self-check-in, we did not meet the host. However, two days before our stay I received an email with instructions - the communication and organisation is exceptional. The room and communal areas were very clean and tidy. The location was wonderful - it is a stand-alone building which provides a lot of privacy, peace, and quiet for those who seek it. Also, the Faxi Waterfall is only a two-minute drive away. Highly recommended!

    The hostel is in a great location. The coffee lounge area was good and we ate at the picnic benches outside as the weather was glorious. It’s cheap for Iceland and the place is basic. there were some lovely dogs and homemade Icelandic jumpers.

    The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and charming. The guest house is spacious and well situated, not far from the attractions (glacier, waterfalls, volcano...). The breakfast is copious and hearty, exactly what you need for Icelandic hiking trips and weather. A very nice stay, the best we had in Iceland.

    Really enjoyed our stay here, the breakfast was great and hosts very friendly. Great location for Selfoss. We were lucky enough to see the northern lights just by standing outside the guesthouse, the host knocks politely to let you know to go outside if you want to!

    Our room was spacious, clean and comfy (I saw some rooms are much smaller, but guess cheaper too). Great location on the Golden Circle and good value for the price. The host was friendly and thoughtful. Recommend!
