    There aer only two toilets and shower (one for men and one for women) for all the people who are staying there. The cleanliness is not great but managable if you stay for one day.

    The location was near a small lake. In the evening, it gets quite and scenic near the lake.

    No mop for the bathroom as the water splashes around the curtain and also you can't hook the shower properly for the water to run down on you and not on the wall. Beds were a bit hard for us.

    Great location, friendly staff and a very nice setting. Room was great, warm and cosy with a very nice view. Kitchen well equipped. You can park the car near to the cabin.

    We had a small issue with the temperature of the room. There is only one female shower so if it's crowded you may wait.

    We had a beautiful night in Arhus Cottage and Camping. The room is clean and has everything you need to relax after hours of hiking!

    Good budget accomodation in Hella.

    Shared bathroom facilities are a bit small for size of the site. Toilet/sinks no issue but only one shower so had to go back and forth a few time to get to use it.

    For Iceland, a reasonable price. Good associated restaurant with a discount if you stayed in the cabin/campground. Shared kitchen useful for breakfast/lunch.

    The common room was untidy and not very clean, poorly maintained. Wifi was available only in the common room, not in the bungalow. It's a pity because this camping has a very high potential and the common spaces would deserve a better management.

    I loved the setting of the bungalows in the greenery by the river. Our room was comfortable, right size and clean. The shower was new. You could adjust the heating of the room as you liked. It was very peaceful. Very convenient the restaurant beside the camping.

    Wish the bed was a little more comfortable the mattress could use an update. Wish the sink and shower were bigger.

    It was great for the price! Location is fantastic! Super close to a lot of popular places along the south coast

    Zero airflow and thin walls. Room got extraordinarily humid/ foggy in the windows, very hot, and loud neighbors through the shared wall were a bother.

    Great location, nice views, cute property

    In the beginning, the community kitchen was sort of greasy and people didn‘t wash their stuff properly, but that got better the next days. Shower was leaking too, but yet again, not a big deal.

    Great area with only 5 min to Hella bus stop where most of the tours have a pickup point & where the highland bus stops. The property is right next to a beautiful lake. The rooms were spacious and clean. We were even upgraded by the siper friendly staff as we stayed for 4 nights. Thank you so much!

    The toilet may have needed better ventilation, but overall, it's good value for money.

    Wonderful location by the lake. And the cabin we got was fully equipped despite its smaller size.

    In a beautiful area close to a river and in a good position to visit south Iceland and golden circle. The cottage was clean and cozy. The staff is ready and kind. Maybe the kitchen is not fully equipped to cooking, some more plates and glass will be better. Also a more towel. But in total is a good accomodation also for the price, competitive for the Iceland standard.
