Great skies! Highly recommend for basic amenities and a chance at seeing a show of a lifetime.

Room was clean, beds comfortable and quiet over all. The light on all night outside the door is kind of annoying and in the middle of the cold night the heater wasn’t keeping the room warm enough.

Great experience here, only recommendation is to have the spots labeled, someone parked in the spot for our cabin and we had to park by the front and walk all the way over there.

Wasn’t expecting much based on previous reviews, and was very glad I was surprised. This turned out to be an amazing stay. Only complaint was that the kitchen area was rather overcrowded which isn’t really anything drastic.

Very nice pods, clean and comfortable . Staff responded quickly! Amenities were great
Perfect stay, beautiful environment, washroom and common area very clean and efficient. Only thing I messaged them the day before the stay because they didn’t send the code for my pod I booked, but they did respond the day off the stay which was a little nerve racking seeing all the reviews about this. But over ball it was beautiful, good location near the main waterfall; skogafoss

It was a very pleasant surprise. Its reviews were so negative that we tried to cancel. But it was a great place to stay. Although it is close to Route 1, it is remote. If you wish to eat bring you food. We return to the area, we would stay again.

Great rustic stay!
It was great. What a beautiful setting. Not having a washroom in our pod was the only drawback, but we coped.
I have no idea how to pay for this room (or if I already did). I’m sure someone will be in contact.

I arrived late and my pod had been given to someone else. No problem - a very helpful young man came by and set me up in a different pod. The place is in a spectacular location and the pods are super-comfortable, cozy, and warm. I would stay there again in an instant.

Great location, great cabin and great common area.
Shame the communication was poor. Tried to contact the property multiple times as they did not send any access instructions, but it took at least 19 phone calls to get hold of someone.
Heating in the pod was not working. Tried and contact multiple times the property with no luck, still within check in hours.
Freezing night in the end!
Not impressed with the communication and the ethos. Shame because it's a stunning location and facility! If only people cared...

You need to walk outside to reach the facilities, which was inconvenient. In addition, I spent over two hours trying to contact the property because I never received the code to enter my room.

The cabins had mixed reviews when I booked. We showed up & everything was great to start. The Cabin was cozy & warm with a heater. You have to walk about 100 feet to the bathrooms & kitchen area. This night was VERY windy & the cabin was not really insulated or warm besides the small space heater. I Imagine that during the warmer months it would be nice without wind. The cabin was absolutely freezing & the wind was howling the entire night. There was like banging & the bed was shaking at the wind. It almost felt that the cabin would blow away. So maybe good for the summer months with no environmental issues happening? The bathrooms & kitchen were warm & clean.

I never received the checkin details despite of several calls and email to the property as well to the Expedia. I had to book another hotel at an emergency level at the last moment. Please DO NOT recommend this property to any Expedia customer here after. They are absolutely not reliable.

First the key wouldn’t open the door to our camping pod. Second, we arrived around 6pm only to find out there was no power in half of the pods. Being 20 degrees Fahrenheit out, we were forced to sit in the community dining area. No message from host or anything regarding this issue. Multiple groups of people were in the same situation as us. All we were told was there was an electrician on their way to resolve it. Electricity wasn’t restored until 11pm… only a very small space heater was provided in the pods which was not sufficient enough to comfortably sleep. The lock also froze so we were unable to latch the door. We ended up booking a different hotel and so glad we did. Tried messaging and calling the property about the issues and still haven’t heard back here a week later. DO NOT STAY HERE! Maybe in the summer it would be great but this place shouldn’t be advertised for winter stays of there is not sufficient heat.
