The Garage

The Garage

10/10 Excellent
"The Garage is a lovely place with lovely people! My husband and I stayed here for just one night but would’ve loved to stay longer if we could. Our studio was super cozy and clean. Kitchen has everything you need to cook/prep a meal. Bathroom was neat with great shower pressure. The grounds are also pretty, with a beautiful waterfall in the background. There was a hot tub that looked nice but we didn’t end up using it, unfortunately. Anna was very welcoming and offered us slices of a delicious almond cake she had just made. We’d definitely return, highly recommend!"

"The property is in a very nice location, but it was kind of hard to get hold of personal at the property or even on the phone. Without the help from Expedia , we would never be able to get into our rooms."

Guesthouse Vellir

Guesthouse Vellir

8/10 Good
"This was a great place with one (significant) drawback. The water in the shower was very low pressure and variable down to no flow at all at times 🙁 Other than that, the room was very comfortable and it is in a great location. It is pricey and breakfast at $32 per person is steep, but that seems pretty standard in this part of Iceland at this time of year."
