    Siew note to the rating, I never give out a 10 and the 9 was not made because the other room (cabin) was not as good as the room in the large building due to matrasses and a bit smaller. Location is as good as you can be in that area of Iceland....

    It was perfectly situated for our needs. The room was clean and comfortable. Basic, with no ‘facilities’ as such. However we didn’t need anything really, we’re not demanding people!
