Literie très confortable. Seul bémol, il n’y a pas de cuisine pour préparer les repas. Nous sommes donc obligé de manger à l’extérieur.

This is a charming guesthouse with just the right amenities—great shower, coffee in the morning. The guest house is across the street and steps from the city bath house and also walking distance from the shops downtown.

Value for money in Akuyeri
Lovely place to stay for a night or two. Tiny bathroom- with the sulfur smelling hot water, pretty unbearable, but the room was lovely.

A friendly stay
Nice rooms, friendly staff, plus with en suite rooms, this is good value (for Iceland). We've stayed here 4 times and will stay here again if the opportunity arises.

Great location in a bustling little town. Flexible with my schedule and unknown arrival time as well as allowing me to wake up and leave on my own time to get an early start to my day.
