My stay at the tiny glass lodge was incredible. It was perfectly clean when I arrived and the instructions for check-in and out were clear and easy.

The beds were very comfortable. Complementary breakfast was very good with some vegtables and fruits and a good gluten free bread. Location is great. Just next to the town center. Receptionist was very nice. She loaned me an HDMI cable and made a resturant reservation. We got a room facing the street but the double windiws blocked the noise.

Everything, the location, how comfortable and big the room was. Outdoor spa was just amazing, perfect place to relax whilst admiring the surroundings. It was open till late, which was great to be able to use it after dinner. We had lovely dinner at the restaurant that was serving delicious local food. But most of all, we were very impressed with staff. They were super nice and helpful.

Secluded and serene. Love how the homes are built on their own individual mounds of grass allowing for separation and privacy from neighbours. The homes themselves are well equip and spacious with a beautiful shower. Property has 2 friendly dogs belonging to the family roaming around, who came up to greet us and play ball. Host was very welcoming and helpful.

DO NOT STAY HERE! Avoid it! Go elsewhere!

DO NOT STAY HERE! Avoid it! Go elsewhere! WORST PLACE WE STAYED IN ICELAND!!!!!!! Our room was not cleaned. Dirty towels all over the room, soiled linens, pillows on the floor, the room smelled musky...and no one even answered the after hours number to help us out. We called them 5 times, we messaged them on WhatsApp 4 times, we texted them 5 times, and we emailed them 6 times in the span of an hour with absolutely NO RESPONSE! Totally ghosted. So after 90 minutes, we had to figure out alternate arrangements all on our own. We finally got an email from Vladimir the next day, saying they will do an investigation to see what happened. Geez, really? Wow, thanks...how the hell does that help us?!? They later said "Sorry, it was totally their fault"?!?! Like it was MY fault? Thanks Captain Obvious! WTF!! When I asked for a refund, they refused to refund ANY portion of our stay, until I insisted, and then it was only a 20% offer. (Seriously?!?) So, I reached out to Booking.com and they were even less helpful. And the biggest kick in the head? Selfoss Hostel said, "nah we're not going to refund anything because you reached out to Booking.com" This place is brutal. Why have an afterhours number to help people and not answer it. Why promise a refund and then renege? And for crying out loud...why not have a room cleaned with fresh linens when you already left a key for that room?!?! And if they decide to reply to this complaint, don't believe what they write. I have email and message receipts to back up everything I wrote above! Avoid Selfoss Hostel!

Really cool area to visit. Views of the mountains are beautiful. Easy of getting to other locations on the South Coast were excellent. Restaurants and hotels are great. A bonus and gas stations are right near by. Traffic was good too. Selfoss down the road had so many tourists and traffic and parking were really difficult.

Centre of Fludir has grocery store, a gas station and 2 hotels - all four located very closely across the street. So we could get full tank of gadoline to drive further and wr had really good breakfast in hotel, but for the evening got some food in the shop. We didn't spend much time there and sayed only for one night driving through from one destination point to anothes as we dind't find any interesting object to visit in this town.

Geyser area is a popular stop in Iceland. Although I was skeptical of a hotel, located at a tourist, attraction, the hotel impressed us. The facility was new. The restaurant was top notch. In the evening After the tourist flow slows down, it is awesome to have so close to a cool attraction

Title: A Heartwarming Stay with an Exceptional Host!

Title: A Heartwarming Stay with an Exceptional Host! I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful accommodation, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. From the moment I arrived, the host's warmth and kindness made me feel right at home. One of the standout moments of my stay was the breakfast. Not only was it delicious, but the host went above and beyond to accommodate my dietary needs by baking lactose-free bread just for me. I was truly stunned by her thoughtfulness and dedication to ensuring a delightful experience. In a world where hospitality can sometimes feel impersonal, this host's genuine care and attention to detail made my stay truly exceptional. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone seeking a memorable and heartwarming stay.

Great place in south of Iceland.

Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.
