"Youssef, the receptionist at the hostel, was very friendly and accommodating to all of my family's requests. The kitchen was quite nice, and the showers are decently private."

"Lockers were not functional, as they don't lock in a typical locker fashion. Also, one of the locker doors was loose, so it was unusable."

"The gentleman working was incredibly friendly and very welcoming. He showed us around the facility and was very helpful with anything we needed. We were late to checking in and he was still very accommodating"

"Nothing"

"Easy to find, free parking lot, clean place, friendly staff, cheap for Iceland. I think I got the last bed of the night so I felt lucky not sleeping in my car."

"Tiny and stuffy room, not comfy, but only needed it to crash after a long drive. I got what I needed out of it for the most part."

Gregory - 19/08/2024 10:37:44

"It's budget and basic Market and restaurants are a short walk away"

"Aucun."

Emilia - 06/12/2025 23:15:23

"It was not my first time in the hostel. I liked it and decided to come back. The guy who manages the place is very nice and helpful, I arrived late at night and it was no problem at all."

"Well I don't have much to say as I was staying only for one night."

"Everything was amazing, but above all, our host Youssef, who helped us with absolutely everything. We are a family with an 8-month-old baby, and Youssef was always available to support us in every way—from carrying the baby to making sure everything was perfect to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Our flight was canceled due to the bankruptcy of the Icelandic low-cost airline, and here we found a home away from home. The place is close to the city center. The rooms are clean, with comfortable mattresses and pillows, and the heating is excellent. There is a large kitchen fully equipped with cookware and water, and they provide tea and coffee. There are many spacious showers available, and the bathrooms are always clean. Free parking is right outside, and there is a quiet lounge area with sofas to relax."

"Nothing. Totally recommend it."

Guest reviews

"Friendly host, excellent breakfast, clean and nicely decorated"

Avis de Patrick Valhalla Yurts Odin

"The house was great, we had everything we needed, even more. The jacuzzi was a nice surprise. The location is very serene and peaceful, very nice decorated and well taken care of, it's a great place to relax after all the visiting :)"

Avis de Vanca Riverside Cottage

"The house was so charming, comfortable, and well appointed. There was everything we needed for cooking at home. Having two bathrooms was a very nice bonus! The view of the horses from every window was so charming. Being about 20 minutes drive from the grocery store made it easy to gather food on our way home each night from our adventures. We were able to see the Northern Lights from right outside our living room one night and gorgeous sunsets when the weather is clear"

Avis de Morgan Skidbakki Guesthouse

"Amazing location to view the northern lights and sleep in tranquility. The cabin has everything one could need."

"A short drive from Drangsnes or Holmavik, this is a great location to stay in the region. The units are well-separated and quiet. We didn't use it, but having the personal hot tub was a nice touch. We would have used it if we didn't check out one of the hot pots outside of Drangsnes instead, which was an awesome and unique experience."

"Horse riding next door with horses rushing up the driveway in the morning. Good breakfast with cozy dining room. Room was a good size for 3 people."

Avis de Eileen Helluland Guesthouse

"Very charming home. Akureyri was easily accessible. Quiet, comfortable. Dorothea was very responsive and even gave us unsolicited and valuable advice about our travel itinerary. Comfortable, homey, cozy decor. And there is even a convenience store around the corner."

"Had to drive over a rough road to get to the farm, but the cabin was charming and everything we needed. Very clean and cosy with 2 twin beds and a small kitchenette. The kitchenette was especially useful since restaurants can be hard to find when traveling in Iceland. Cabin was very quiet, so no trouble sleeping. It was a self service entry, so we never met the host, but no complaints. Would definitely stay here again."

"It is very spacious and well equipped. We ski toured with Scandic Guides and stayed in the apartment. We love the local bakery, info centre, grocery shop and pool. All was good. Weather extremely wild!!"
