Customer Reviews Broddanes

| The absolute best all round of the five hostels we stayed at in Iceland. Greg Howarth | ||

| Very nice facilities in a modern former school built in the 1970. Kitchen with fabulous views of the fjord. However, two bathrooms with showers inside in the upper floor are a bit too little for the amount of people, as well as the dinning tables. The road to get there is gravel in several sections, but in good condition. | ||

| The layout of the building worked well. Good facilities - just right for the number of guests. Good space in the kitchen to allow several people to cook concurrently. Lovely location. It is a pity we did not have longer to spend in the area. | ||
