Excellent spacious apartment. Plenty of towels and comfortable living space. Beautiful views over the fjord, we saw porpoise playing daily. Next door to a popular ice-cream palour. We walked from the airport and also into town easily, no public transport required. A 15 minute walk to the swimming baths and 30.min walk to the forest lagoon ( although some parts of the busy road didn't have paths so not really recommended!) Large tv with Netflix. We did hear a lot of noise upstairs but I'm sure they could hear us too, more the nature of the old house than the guests. Wasn't too keen on the doll in the pram but plenty of great decor never the less. A great stay.

We were very happy with our stay in Akureyri. It was close to a small grocery store and easy to find on the map. The room was very comfortable with good heating and hot water. The kitchen had everything you needed with nice coffee, utensils and appliances.

Great location, decent size room and comfortable beds. Windows were overlooking the street however, no noises were bothering us neither from outside or inside. Beautifull building as well. Parking was free of charge from the evening (16:00 or 18:00 o'clock can't remember) until 10:00 in the morning, so it worked perfect for us.

We felt more than welcome. The owner spoiled us with delicious breakfasts and dinner (local products!). The guesthouse is perfectly located - close enough to Akureyri but you still get this "in the middle of nowhere"/"close to nature" experience. The rooms are immaculately clean and super comfortable. We loved visiting the sheep farm, cuddling all the dogs at work, hearing all the stories about living in Iceland, but what we loved the most was Elizabeth's (owner) passion and her genuine hospitality. We totally recommend staying here and we are definitely coming back!

    This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.
