Great spot

Great spot but be prepared to walk as the main street in front of the hotel was closed off to traffic. Checkin was easy, Bar staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Great location with an abundance of street food, coffee and dining choices. A kids park just outside the front door, provided endless entertainment to kids and adults.

Akureyri centrall located economical accommodation

My only criticism is that the only TV in this guesthouse did not work. Otherwise, for value and location, this guesthouse is excellent. The staff at the restaurant next door, standing in for reception, were also very friendly and helpful.

Warm welcome by the bar staff: what more could we want. Free parking resonable nearby. Tip: include free parking info in the incheck-message. Our room had a private bathroom: basis but clean. Common kitchen was a bit run down. Enough shops and restaurants nearby.
