Cottage was not really what we expected, very small with VERY poor quality mattresses. It was fun atmosphere but definitely not worth the price. And the sulfur in the hot water nearly made us sick (only location we stayed at with this issue). In our four nights in Iceland the glamping site near Selfoss had far and away the best beds and ambience for a lot less cost

The rooms are noticeably smaller, which is typical for the area, but the significant lack of exhaust or ventilation is a major concern. The room becomes quite suffocating after a shower. Additionally, I had an unpleasant encounter with a staff member during breakfast. When I tried to refill my plate before 10 AM, while the salad bar was still open, their behavior was unprofessional and unwelcoming. Guests should not be treated in this manner. On a positive note, the lobby was pleasant, and other staff members were friendly and helpful.
