Newly remodeled interior, but shared bathrooms down the hall. The building and grounds exterior condition is very discouraging. The picture posted on Expedia is not representative. No staff on location, and no way for a traveler without local cell service to contact them. We had to go to a local market and ask someone to call the number posted on the door.

This was a room in a house with a shared bathroom which was well stocked and clean. We had access to a full kitchen, large dining area, a balcony. The room was nice and the area was nice in a small town that felt safe. Lovely house with nice amenities in the lobby area as well.

We enjoyed our stay at the Setrid Guesthouse. The suite was very comfortable, and the shared spaces were inviting, particularly the lounge on the third floor. We look forward to staying again on our next trip to Iceland.

We actually could not even spend the night at this guesthouse because we could not enter the premises! The key box was empty, the owner was answering her phone and nobody was there to open the door for us. If you plan to visit this place, make sure you can access it before paying. We had to find another hotel at 9pm.
