    Loved my absolutely amazing stay and would come here again. I had a well-designed and reasonably large room in this clean hotel. - the location was secluded, next to the surrounding area and the birch "forest" to the east of Myvatn. - It also was close to nearby sightseeing. - My room included a microwave oven, a fridge, and tea/coffee making equipment. - Plus, it had a pleasant view over the lake. - the best part was the exceptional staff.
