Wonderful host! Kristin was on site making sure our check in went very smooth and provided an excellent restaurant recommendation for dinner. Very conveniently located to, restaurants, groceries and gas. One of the cleanest homes I’ve stayed in. Full size washer and dryer in the unit was amazing for our family of five after traveling for a few days. Home overlooks a beautiful river. Highly recommend this place for your stay in Selfoss!

Kristin (the owner) is a very caring person, she personally come in to greet us when we arrive; she also knock the door to let us know to come out to see the northern lights; her hospitality really make us feel like we are special guests. the apartment is very clean, it is equipped with everything we need and kitchen has all needed to make reasonable dinner for family of 4. Location is also very convenience, short drive to supermarket. We were very happy with the stay. One of the best place we choose in Iceland.

Apartment is lower level of owner's home. Private entrance, well stocked with everything we needed. Owner was very easy to deal with and even offered to knock on the door if the Northern Lights were out (which they were!). Would absolutely stay there again if I'm ever back in Selfoss.

Lovely studio apartment looking out on the River. Kristin was wonderful and accommodating. Nice having a kitchen to prepare breakfast and lunch since food in Iceland is pricey. Selfoss the perfect start to start our adventure!!

Had a great one night stay at River Apartment. Had some difficulties with tv and could have used some instructions. Apartment was well equipped: coffee machine (with coffee and filters), toaster, even had some basic supplies (pasta etc). Sofa bed was good to sleep.
