I understand its a cabin but there were no toiletries, there wasn’t even a lock on the bathroom door. The location is nice.. view of the mountain was awesome. We enjoyed sitting outside till late night. However, giving 4 star just because of the bathroom.

Reception very lacking. Had to call a number but no answer using free phone on site. Once connected using international calling, communication was drowned out by children screaming in background. Cute cottage but reception ruined it...

I did not get email from the property informing me about check-in instructions as indicated in the booking confirmation email. The cottages (North Star) do not have a common reception desk and check-in instructions are to be provided by email. When called myself and also got involved the Avion RBC visa representative, using the phone number for North Star Cottage many times, no one picked up the phone. I did not take a risk to drive all way from Keflavik to the cottage as originally planned as I did not have on hand check in details. I did not want to put at risk my family of not being able to check in and being stagnant in the Southern part of Iceland. I had to change all my travel arrangements which ruined all my dreams when I was planning to travel to Iceland. Whoever owns the property, is not reliable at all. I strongly recommend to take down this cottage from the booking options through RBC Avion, as the cottage is very poorly managed and this can compromise Avion services. I am very disappointed. As suggested by the RBC Avion representative, I am going to file a claim and request reimbursement for all additional costs I had to pay out of pocket associated with this issue.

It's a cute little cabin. It surprised me how good it was. The construction seems new. It has 3 beds with comfortable clean blankets. The only suggestion is : the water is beige and has a bad smell.

The property was clean, quiet and the area was picturesque. However, even though the property was just off a major roadway, we had some difficulty in locating it. What little signage existed was small and hard to read, especially for those of us who were first time visitors to Iceland.

While international understand this is a cottage, the service was horrible. We stayed 2 nights- we were not provided with toilet paper or paper towels and the sheets were dirty. If this was an inexpensive option I wouldn’t have complained-however this was the most expensive place we stayed and the worst conditions

Almost no internet signals! Hard to control the water and cold water, so taking shower was a terrible experience. Smelly sink. 5/6 flies was inside, my husband spent 30 mins trying to get them out, then gave up.

Our family of 8 adults and a baby booked two of these units. Sleeping In the common space - aka kitchen - was less than ideal. And the lack of a couch or any comfortable chairs was also less than ideal. The physical location of these cabins was quite pretty and being in the Golden Circle made all that we wanted to get to was simple.

Basic accommodation nearby many great sites. A tight fit for 4 people, but got a good nights rest. Cons: Most windows don't open, very few hooks, view from front porch is of a large number of new small huts.

Loved the location and the views - the best place we stayed in during our week of travel and we stayed at 3 different spots. PROS: location, entire cottage to yourself, separate bedroom for kids or adults, front porch to sit on and enjoy the views, great kitchenette with a small table and 4 chairs to sit at, easy enough check-in, good hot water CONS: wifi was terrible (but okay T-mobile service worked most of the time), the bathroom window didn't open to air out steam from shower or anything else for that matter and didn't have a shade or blind to block out the sun (need this for summer!), also needed a blind or shade for front door diamond window esp if sleeping in the main area bed (we used a towel and hung in doorframe), not enough hooks to hang jackets or wet towels or both! (i think there were 2 in the bedroom in the entire cabin and with the inconsistent weather you could have a fleece, raincoat, and down puffer jacket in one trip!, pricey overall a great place to crash and have a 'home' to go to - would recommend.
