Practical, friendly

Reasonable place overall. The hosts were kind and communicated well. Even though there wasn’t an on-site office, we had an issue in our room and they showed up within 5 minutes of reaching out about it. Was a great location for seeing the northern lights, we actually drove down the road a mile or two and sat by a waterfall and watched it. The morning breakfast was great. Overall, the setup is very basic, but it was a good value. We would stay again.

My number one place to stay amongst many!

I have stayed in 20+ hotels in Iceland. This guesthouse is a shining beacon above every place I have stayed in Iceland, Scotland, England and Germany. I liked this guesthouse so much, that I changed my business plans so I could stay an extra night. I couldn’t bring myself to stay in another generic hotel further North in the city. Only a couple of miles off the main highway, it’s worth the journey. The peace of the location allowed me to sleep calmly for the first time in days. The owners are truly delightful human beings and they give the feeling of coming home to family after a hard days trekking across the countryside

Watch out for the extra $

It was a nice clean room. Do not pay extra for a kitchen. Their ad is misleading and makes you pay more if you want a kitchen, but it's a communal kitchen- everyone has access, not your own personal kitchen as they make it out to be, so save your money and book the basic room.

The room was spotless with all the amenities you need. Shared kitchen with dining area, tea, coffee, cocoa, games and comfortable seating area for relaxing and visiting with the staff and other visitors. We especially appreciated the owners making waffles for us all in the morning, with conversation and suggestions to enhance our visit in the area. Too many stays have no contact with the owners and we have missed the personal contact in the country we are visiting. Loa's Nest was the exception to this. Thank you for one of the best stays on our visit to Iceland.
