    Nothing.

    The location was better than I could have imagined. We couldn't have done better if we tried. Perfection. The amenities were top tier. We stayed in a different location every night on our 8 day trip around the Ring Road and this place was our favorite.

    Walls are thin. Room was pretty basic for the price but sufficient.

    Can’t beat the location. Room was clean. And they left a few little thoughtful touches.

    It was all great. Just too short.

    A lovely big room in an an old historic hotel, We loved Seydisfjordur and took a wonderful hike up to a series of waterfalls. The weather wasn't perfect but the room and our stay was.

    I wish I knew that there was a refrigerator. Also, they only had shampoo but no conditioner which I expected.

    Amazing view/deck. Location can’t be beat. You are staying on the beautiful rainbow road. The hosts were great at communicating and left a yummy chocolate bar. The restaurant, Kaffi Lara El Grillo Bar was close and amazing.

    I sure cant say anything about our lodgings

    We were able to get a balcony room and so sat outside in the morning on the balcony and enjoyed our free coffee. The view was absolutely gorgeous. The room was clean and so comfortable. We walked around the lagoon for a beautiful walk in the morning and in the early evening.

    It was clean and comfortable. The room was a good size and the bathroom was sparkling. The information was clear and understandable.

    Self check in was a breeze with the keys conveniently left in envelopes with each quests name. The rooms facing the water have beautiful little balconies with chairs and you can even see the lovely waterfall. The hotel is located right on the rainbow street and everything is easily walkable. This is truly the prettiest town in east Iceland and Vid Lonid Guesthouse is a wonderful place to rest yourself. We are sorry we only stayed one night.

    This was THE best place to be! We were here for 2 nights. The view was spectacular, bed was very comfortable, and going to sleep with the sound of the waterfall was the icing on the very special experience. Breakfast at The Filling Station was delicious. Thank you!

    The beds were just a bit too soft. We prefer a bit more support. The windows overlooked the pathway so blinds had to be always shut for privacy. Consider installing privacy curtains? Or something to offer closure but light. Excellent shower ! Loved the efficient coffee maker ! Chocolate bar was a super nice touch !

    It was no problem for us, but if you have mobility issues you might want to request a ground floor room. Stairs could be a little tricky to navigate and there is no staff, at least we did not see anyone, to help you. Please note that to reach the front door you need to go up stairs as well.

    Loved the location, clean rooms, comfortable bed and nice shower and a hard to beat view!

    That I couldn't stay more

    Picturesque village, quiet and clean. The guesthouse was easy to find. It is totally renovated with good taste. It's balcony rooms overlook a lovely pond. Even though they don't serve breakfast, the room was equipped with an electric kettle, a coffee machine and a cooler. There were courtesy coffee capsules, tea bags and a chocolate bar.

    No self catering equipment even though most of the places in the town was closed until summer. Needs a cupboard or something to hang up guests clothes.

    Clean, comfortable and accommodating. The kettle and coffee machine as well as the mini fridge were wonderful to have. Check-in was easy. We would imagine that the house might be a little noisier than we heard - noise does travel, however, the other guests staying there were very considerate as well. Note that there is no breakfast at the accommodation and the associated hotel did not serve any either on the date we were there. But we knew beforehand, so we were fine. In winter, restaurant services are limited as well. Know that if you’re not used to driving snowy and icy winter roads, access to Seydisfjördur might be very adventurous for you in wintertime. We enjoyed our stay in this very quiet town! Would recommend.
