to get started.

Very close to Akureyri and a good stopping point on our journey. It had a nice view of the fjord. Dianne was very welcoming and prepared a tasty breakfast for us.

Breakfast was included for both our days, and the host prepared breakfast early for us one day so we could eat and have time to catch the ferry in Dalvik. Quiet location just outside of town with a great view of the fjord.

Adam

United States of America

It was great to have possibility to wash our clothes in the middle of the trip. The owner was very kind to dry it in her private drying machine. We were also able to cook some food for dinner and for then next day. The supermarket is very close, by the way. Our kids were happy to see cats, horses and rabbits.

This was a convenient location to Akureyri. Breakfast was very good. Accommodations were excellent. I especially appreciate using the washing machine since this was about the middle of our trip. Unfortunately I was raining so it was hard to dry the clothes. I appreciate that the owner was willing to dry our clothes in her dryer. Thank you.

Comfortable, quiet stay in an awesome location-close enough to town, but near the water, bird viewing, horses and there's a dog park! Host gave suggestions for dinner, walks and heated the hot tub for our use

Nancy

United States of America

I loved that they had two comfortable chairs. Most rented rooms have the most uncomfortable chairs so this was a nice surprise. Good sized room. Good breakfast.

Just 10 drive minutes to Akurey. Great river View and good breakfast !

My husband and I wanted a place to stay out of the city in the hopes of seeing the northern lights during our stay. It was a perfect distance away from the city to still go to the brewery in town but be far enough away for a dark atmosphere. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate so no northern lights. We were greeted immediately and shown our room which was bigger than I expected. There was no one else staying there at the time so we ended up getting a private bathroom but normally it is a shared space. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and plentiful.
