Friendly staff, good room, bathing and kitchen facilities are great. The close by and associated restaurant Gamla Flosid offers good food and service. I have no complaints and recommend South Iceland Guesthouse.

We had a wonderful stay here. The beds were so comfortable and the room was very clean. We ate dinner at their restaurant across the road and had the best Icelandic cod. Bathrooms were clean and shower was nice. I would recommend this place to a friend.

The property itself is well decorated and comfortable. However, with 5-6 families sharing one bathroom and kitchen, it is a little bit crowded.

Clean but we had a very small room for three people. Large kitchen and family room. Shared bathroom was not a problem -2 or 3 bathrooms. Location is a bit isolated but on a major road. There is a restaurant close by.

Great little guesthouse with 7 or so rooms. Very nice and clean bathrooms (3, with toilet/sink/shower each) and main kitchen area. Best for couples or two good friends. Beds are bunked.

Great Spot to Stay!
Great place to stay while seeing Iceland. The building itself is fairly modernized inside. We had two windows which kept banging open at night due to the strong winds, but otherwise it was comfortable and quiet. They even provided bread to feed to the nearby sheep!

South Iceland Guesthouse was a great stop for the price! Situated on a beautiful farm underneath the mountains, it was gorgeous scenery all around. Our room was very small but clean and beds were comfortable. The shared bathrooms were good sized and clean. The family restaurant across the street was delicious!

My family stayed in the room for 4. The room is spacious and quite at night. The guesthouse is tidy, clean, and less than 15 mins drive to the two famous waterfalls on South Coast. The host is very friendly. Check in was easy. We enjoyed our stay.
