The smell from the sewer was too strong. Shower area was tight. Other than those, all was good. Everything including a full kitchen and a hairdryer was provided.

Terrible stay in cottage with bed bugs
There was a huge problem with our stay that was BED BUGS! All three beds were full of bed bugs that did not allow all of us to sleep. We all got many bites all over our bodies. The host did not respond to our complaint. I have one more point to note: the Barbecue grill is specified in property amenities, but there were no any Barbecue grill.

*** Worst place we stayed during our 10-day trip in Iceland *** The cottage smelled very strongly of fish as soon as we walked in. I like to eat fish, but this was overwhelming and, frankly, disgusting. We couldn't find the source of the smell, so we couldn't try to clean it up ourselves. The smell was so bad that some of my clothes that were in my suitcase still smelled of fish 10 days later EVEN AFTER WE LEFT ICELAND! I texted the contact for the property, and they just told us too bad because there was no other cottage available to which they could move us. I understand if they don't have an available cottage, they don't have an available cottage. However, they didn't even offer us a discount on the cost of our stay. The fact that someone went into the cottage and changed the sheets (I assume) and cleaned it (presumably) and didn't bother to clean up a smell that bad and didn't even open windows to air the place out makes me wonder how thoroughly the entire cottage was actually cleaned. Stay anywhere else if you have the choice!

The check in did not go well. We did not recieve the email with the code to get in. We had to call expedia who reached out to the property manager and gave us lock box code. The cottages are very neat and well equipped.
