    stunning sea view
    disruptive noise
    limited dining options

    The stunning sea view from our room made mornings magical.

    However, I found the noise from shared spaces quite disruptive, especially during the mornings. It was difficult to relax knowing that guests could be stirring or preparing breakfast at any hour. I also felt a bit limited since local dining options were scarce during the off-season, leading to a quieter than anticipated atmosphere.

    stunning sea view
    poor sound insulation

    The antique charm and the stunning sea view from our room were absolutely breathtaking, making morning coffee a delightful experience.

    The sound insulation in the historic building is lacking, and we experienced significant noise from guests preparing meals early in the morning.

    morning chaos

    From skeptic to superfan

    The historical charm and captivating sea views turned my stay into a slice of Icelandic magic, offering an authentic glimpse into the country’s rich past.

    The shared bathrooms and common areas can be quite busy, creating a bit of morning chaos as guests prepare for their day.

    Charming stay with a sea view

    We had a lovely time here! The self-serve breakfast was great—loved making my own skyr parfaits with fresh fruit. The views of the fjord were absolutely relaxing. A small downside was the noise from other guests which sometimes woke us up early. Still, the overall vibe and decor made it special.

    noise issues

    The stunning sea view from the Superior Double or Twin Room makes for a perfect morning coffee spot. The well-stocked kitchen is a great practical touch, enhancing the stay.

    This place has quite a bit of noise due to its old building charm. The sound insulation is minimal, making it tough to sleep if guests don't keep it down in the mornings.

    delicious breakfast
    charming atmosphere
    noticeable noise
    shared bathrooms
    limited dining options

    The self-serve breakfast in the shared kitchen offered a delightful selection of yogurt, fruit, and fresh bread, perfect for starting the day. The interesting decor and artifacts throughout the space created a cozy atmosphere. However, the noise from the common areas was noticeable, especially early in the morning due to the building's age. Additionally, the setup with shared bathrooms may not suit everyone's preference, and some local businesses were closed during the off-season, limiting dining options.

    noise issue

    Our stay in the Superior Double or Twin Room with Sea View was really cute. The room was small but cozy, and the view of the fjord was just epic for morning coffee. The decor added a lovely touch, making it feel special. On the downside, it can get a bit noisy when others are using the common areas. Still, the charm of the place made it a memorable experience.

    beautiful view
    relaxing garden
    noise issue

    I had a lovely stay where I enjoyed a cozy room and a beautiful view that made mornings way more special. The garden area was perfect for relaxing, and I loved unwinding in the TV room after a long day. Just be aware that the house can be a bit noisy if others aren't mindful about their volume at night. 😊
