The hotel was haunted. Lots of nose at night. Wind howling through the cracks in the window. Machine in common area making noise all night. Didn't sleep well.

Hands down, Best place we stayed in Iceland!!

We first went to the other guesthouse but then the owner was kind enough to personally come pick us up. Then we were checked into our room which was nice & spacious. The bathroom were shared but were in immaculate condition. It rather felt like home than a hotel. The host is super awesome. She even did the laundry for us & when I went to pay, she said it was on the house. The guesthouse offers a fully equipped kitchen. This place combines a hotel & AirBnB. The host go above & beyond to make you feel comfortable. We stayed in quite a few places in Iceland but this is the best of all. Highly recommended!

A MUST STAY!!

Room was big for 2 people, and great for the price you pay. The receptionist (forgot her name) was super nice, attentive, and helpful with any questions. Would definitely stay again should I come to Iceland later.

Guesthouse Garun

The guesthouse was clean, comfortable and in a local neighborhood in Selfoss. There was a kitchen you could use to cook your meals, store your produce, beverages. Sigrid was most welcoming as a host and gave us a thorough tour of the property. Wifi was very fast and tv had had all kinds of international stations. The beds were very comfortable. The guesthouse is great value as the hotels will charge you twice as much for an over night!
