Very Good

The property look run down, definitely in the middle of no where, the room was crawling with bugs and dirty under the bed. Barely had heat. The water will tarnish your jewelry, due to the water system. The water stinks and smells like eggs. Will go the extra mile and stay in hotel
We absolutely LOVED Viðines Guesthouse.
The morning cleaning staff is so helpful and kind that we all cried before leaving.
The location is beautiful, while not being too far from Reykjavik. The sense of freedom, especially as far as meals are concerned, is invaluable (no schedule imposed whatsoever.
Only "negative" point: it is REALLY time for a new toaster! And the free coffee runs out every other day!
Electricity went out in morning so nothing can be cooked. But while it was running. Excellent property.

Invest in renovating facility, in particular, bath rooms. They were shabby and I did not feel like using it. One of them had poor drainage. Water contains too much sulfur. I understand this property is for cost conscious travelers, but relatively modest renovation could really improve the image of it.
Clear check-in instruction was provided. The place is very quite and the view was beautiful. There is a Kitchen which is very convenient to make some simple meals. Suggestion to the property owner: at least provide some facial tissue in the room, shampoo/conditioner and shower gel in the shower room. Thanks!
Room was not cleaned before our check-in, we found wet towels in the bed. This was the second place we stayed at and the water had a weird smell. Only book if you plan on being out the whole day. It was far from anything including food.
It's was clean , peaceful, in a very nice location, it was very big and spacious , very affordable would recommend to stay here . The downside is there are weird statues in the building , one of which we destroyed to help free the owner and people staying in the guesthouse by not having a false god and cursed item in their home . The owner was a little bit upset but very forgiving and understanding at the same time . We enjoyed our time.
Despite the scruffy exterior and location close to the city dump, the interior was very well maintained, clean and sleepable. The area outside the building did not smell either (only the drive to/from the building)
Good as a jumping off point near Reykjavik if you want to go do the golden circle as you are already in the outskirts of town.
