We were lucky to get a room to stay on the island overnight because it was a busy weekend in the summer. The room was simple but sufficient, breakfast was a bit limited but again, had sufficient options for us. I especially liked the tuna salad and have been trying to recreate it since I came back home. The location of the guesthouse is great! Close to everything: bonus, restaurants, the ferry dock… etc. and lots of parking on the street.

Breakfast was amazing. The hotel was clean and everyone was friendly. The only disappointing thing was they must have a filter on their water so you don’t get that salt or smell and I love the smell of Iceland's water

I couldn’t figure out the TV and I do like to watch a little TV before I fall asleep. But I was so tired from exploring. I still fell asleep.

The guesthouse is in a great location in town. The room was spacious, the bed comfortable, and the bathroom seemed newly renovated. Self-check-in (and out) was smooth and easy.

The breakfast was okay but nothing really special. Standard bread options and cereals but would have loved a baked good of some kind. A bit impersonal to not see any staff around.

Good, quiet, central location. Fairly large room. Comfy beds and comforters. Good Icelandic breakfast. Friendly staff. It's good to spend the night on the island since most other tourists leave on the last ferry.

The couch in the room was rather uncomfortable. The room could use more horizontal surface for misc things. No luggage rack. Furnishings were a bit dated and spartan. They are updating the rooms and halls.

The hostel is located in the near of the harbor with just a few minutes of walk which makes it super convenient to reach all kinds of living facilities. The room is quite spacious and extremely clean. The neighborhood is also very quiet and peaceful. Although there are not too many staffs, but all of our requests were fulfilled perfectly in time.

We were so tired from our journey, and everyone was very patient with us as we took some time to walk from the ferryport where we had taken a puffin tour and had to bring our bags with us! We would stay there again next time we would come to your beautiful island. We pray that your winter is better this year, although we have had some weather changes, too? Thank you for your kindness and your hospitality. We will recommend you! And say hello to Pogo! :-D Our very best wishes to you all.

I stayed at the guesthouse with my son, we had a special request for the room due to health issues, and the guesthouse met our request. The location is super, very central. The rooms are big, clean and really comfortable. Definitely staying there again when we visit again.

Great location with a decent breakfast. Supermarket located next door and super easy to jump over and grab something you need. The main street is also just around the corner so the location is great. The ferry stops really close so you basically don't need to take the car with you.

The soundproofing between rooms are almost none existing. I could hear almost everything people was saying and doing all around me. The TV didn't have any channels, not even the local TV stations.

The staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. The location was perfect - steps away from the ferry and close to food, tours, and most sites. We didn't take a car and didn't need one. The room was spotless, a good size, and had all amenities we needed. The breakfast was delicious; lots of fruit, pancakes, breads, jellies, meats, etc. Visiting the island was one of the best parts of our visit to Iceland, and staying in this hotel made it an even better choice!

Fantastic location. You can actually see it from the port. Breakfast was very good. Was not supposed to be available during the time of our stay, but was included since they were full at their sister hostel. Parking was right outside the hotel. Very convenient.

Nothing that I didn't like.
