The walls between the rooms are pretty thin, we could hear everything the couple in the other room was talking about. The only thing that might have made our stay better would be being able to check out a bit later like 11am instead of 10am as it was in most guesthouses we stayed at.

Our room had a great view over the mountains. There were power outlets and a little shelf right above the bed, so very convenient. The kitchen was equipped with everything you might need along with tea and coffee.

The house is old and has an unpleasant permanent smell. The bed sheets were never ironed. The environment is just nusty and gloomy, the only pleasant thing is the funny, nice franch woman.

The owner of the house is just a funny, nice woman.

Loved the fact that we were able to see the Northern Lights from our room. The hostess was incredibly accommodating and went out of her way to reassure us when we expected to arrive fairly late in the evening.

Soundproofing in bedrooms - although in old buildings like these it's a common issue and there is probably nothing they can do about it. It's just how it is and actually adds to old house charm. Just not the best choice if you want quiet. We heard everything our neighbors were doing :)) Common kitchen area was great and well equipped, but smelled SO bad (maybe compost?), that we simply couldn't use it.

Very nice old Icelandic house with a few private bedrooms, shared everything else. Great view! Room was super clean and comfy. Bathrooms/toilet were great too. Loved that there were tons of boardgames!

We didn't expect to be staying in someone's house.

Flateyri Guesthouse is a modern home in an old Icelandic house, beautifully appointed, with very comfortable beds, a great kitchen, and cozy living areas upstairs and down. There are many excellent books and games, hard to put down! Stephanie, our host, made us feel at home. We had a great time!

There was no breakfast. I could not open a link in an email sent to me prior to arrival. I wrote an email upon arrival to the woman in charge asking about breakfast. The answer to the question probably was in the link that was inaccessible. The email was never answered. They drain for the shower did not work appropriately.

It was very clean. The mattress was quite comfortable. Access to the kitchen and the living room were much appreciated.

We had a very hard time finding the property, were exhausted from traveling and had a problem with communication with the host and the lock box, extremely windy and cold, but finally got it working.

Very nice and private

Stephanie was super nice and we had a good conversation throughout. She was super helpful and gave a lot of good information. S

Quiet, peaceful yet at the centre of town. The town is picture perfect with the best views ever.

Leaving....

A place with style and a well filled library - much like the village of Flateyri it was super comfortable, interesting and the perfect place to stop. The beds were great and together with a hot bath gave us a fab night's sleep. Well equipped kitchen, sitting room to relax in. Bliss! But above all a friendly host who has really thought about what travellers need. Our best indoors place to stay in Iceland. Thank you!!

The location was perfect for our week of travel through the Westfjords. Plan to take a bath in the tub. The mountain views are gorgeous!

Nothing.

The property was beautiful, clean, lovely bathroom/showers with delicious soaps, very pleasant dining room/kitchen area and excellent high speed wifi. Stephanie was a delightful and knowledgeable host who gave us excellent suggestions for exploring the area.

Nothing.

The property had an amazing unique design inside. It was warm and had a real coziness about it. The house had a wonderful selection of books displayed on creative bookshelf’s around the lounge, everything for everyone. Our room was beautifully designed and the bed was very comfortable. The roomy shower was superb and Stephanie our host was so friendly. We couldn’t ask for more on our 3 day stay.

Flateyri Guesthouse is so comfortable. A three minute walk to the main street, full use of kitchen, a balcony, and an extremely knowledgeable and amiable host made this a lovely stay. Bed is great, and so many resources on Iceland. Wonderful.

Our stay was wonderful! The location and the amenities at the guesthouse were more than we could have asked for. From the view of fjords and blue waters to a beautifully furnished home - we felt right at home. The town of Flateyri is gorgeous, sleepy, and atmospheric. It is located right at the foothills of the fjord and serves as a perfect location to explore Icelandic Westfjords. We ate at the cafe (which even had vegan items on the menu), visited the old bookstore for souvenirs and some reading materials, shopped in a local grocery store and strolled the quiet streets. The guesthouse itself was clean, tastefully decorated, comfortable, and warm. It even had heated floors! We fell in love with the huge modern bath tub and the most comfortable bed. Stephanie, our host, is top notch, attentive, friendly and all around a wonderful human being. She even offered us a thermos and binoculars as we headed out to spot some local wildlife on our hike! Kind and thoughtful! In addition, we got so many tips from her about the area.

It was in the home of the host and not a seperate guesthouse. Also the rooms are upstairs. You have to use the kitchen of the host.

No breakfast, price, cancelation policy, not enough beds

We booked a room with 2 beds (and paid well beyond other properties that offered breakfast too) and got a room with only one bed. The private bathroom was not in the room. We got to this place with a Google search for bed and breakfast - but realized post biking there was no breakfast. Owner did not agree to let us cancel, but also did not provide breakfast. Overall, place was very clean and comfortable, but we definitely didn't feel at home. We meet the host in our last morning and she seemed nice.
