Reviews of Guesthouse Gamla

Close to the main hotel which offered breakfast

The beds were very saggy and uncomfortable. Also, the shower door (telephone booth style shower) had one of the sliding doors broken and was hanging very precariously

Perfect location. Comfortable beds. Full kitchen to use.

There is a permanent smell in this place. It’s in the main area, but also the rooms. When we ran the sink in our room, it stunk for the rest of the night. It’s hard to leave a negative review though because the houses in this town are old and sturdy, so I’m sure dealing with this smell would be a monumental task.

This place had a nice cosy feel. My room was a good size and very comfortable. I slept well here. The kitchen was a great size and well equipped. The communal seating areas were a good size and comfortable. Lots of space for guests. On street parking at the door or close by. Breakfast was down the street at Hotel Isafjordur and was extensive. A fantastic selection of food, including selections for those with dietary requirements. Shared bathrooms were enough for the number of guests and kept clean. Room had a basin and mirror. Good wifi

A washing machine and dryer would complete this place. Carpet in room a bit dirty looking.

great place, in the middle of the town, great views, clean, access to a fully equipped kitchen and a place to eat meals

Such a nice place to stay!

I loves that it was a beautiful old house. You can move the beds together. I like that their is a sink inside the bedroom.

I did not like the instruction on booking for check in is incorrect. You still need to go the hotel to get the keys and then to the guesthouse regardless of when you arrive.

Location was central

Property is shabby, dirty and unkept Terrible stains on carpets Bathrooms really old and basic Very noisy Nothing supplied in kitchen i Old furniture Expensive - we have stayed in similar accommodation all over Iceland and this was by far the very worst

Very nice simple, clean and quiet room. Exactly the place I needed after hiking in Hornstrandir for a week. The included breakfast at the hotel was also very good.

I wish it was made clear from the beginning that I had to check in at the other hotel. The description said that I didn't have to do so before a certain hour, but I certainly did.

Great location Good buffet breakfast

Very basic room No blackout blind, curtains so thin that it was always daylight in the room.

Good location, fair price with the discount. Would not have paid more. Good breakfast that was included.

The room was not like I ordered. The beds were uncomfortable, super soft which kills my back. It's an old house with a lot of noise, the floor creaks soo loud, someone started singin 'howling' outside for at least an hour as we were trying to sleep, there is a pub next to the window, probably came from there full blast. It was really hot and stuffy in the room but if the window was open the rolling blinds flapped around with so much noise and the outer curtain is mere dolly for show so we slept in full brightness so we could have some air. Breakfast in another hotel and the checkin/out. We did not know where we could park the car, there was little to no room for parking. Oh and prepare to fight for the shower and the toilet with the other residents.

Unique older building.

Advertised as robe, slippers, and hair dryer = there was none of these. Check in and out was at a different location, this was not convenient.

It was nice old house in the centrum. Room was clean and big enought. Breakfast was different hotel but good. We had quet neighbours.

We had to pick up and leave the kee to different hotel. Breakfast was in the different hotel.

very good breakfast

The guesthouse was very clean and the lication is great. The staff we dealt with wrte very nice and helpful. Breakfast was great.

The guesthouse is an old building so it is noisy, you can hear the other guests moving around and talking, I recommend earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

The reception which is close to this property is 24 hours and amazing breakfast! The shower pressure was really good.

Nothing

Had character, comfortable, well located.

Coffee at breakfast was pretty bad. In this day and age, better coffee is needed. Bread was excellent however!

Location and nice old building

The room was a bit smal for 3 people

Everything ok! When we travel, we just need a place where to sleep, so this kind of places are the best. Very cozy, there was everything we needed to make a dinner and to have some coffee. Old but nice and clean.

A bit bad airquality, but old places often has this "problem".
