    Need better instructions to find the apartment. Could find the guesthouse but this apartment was just down the road. Luckily someone was able to point us in the right direction.

    Great self contained apartment. Decent sized rooms and decent cooking facilities.

    We felt breakfast was not worth the money or the fuzz. Not the girls fault but next time we will skip breakfast and go over to the hotel next door for one. Beds are not the best and in this very old house the steps are very steep and not for legless people like us.

    Good price on the accommodation. Apparently we were not considered for breakfast even if we asked beforehand and got confirmed for it, when we came down there was no breakfast but the girl went out of her way to get something for us. Cudos for her.

    The room heater was turned on so hot and the windows barely opened to let in cool air. The owner told us we could use the kitchen but when we got there he had told the staff that we couldn’t. They tried to amend us with allowing us use of the outside grill, but we felt unwelcome so we made other plans.

    It was in a good location, clean, and had good shared bathrooms with hot water and good water pressure.

    There was a bad smell in my room nr.8 Don’t know what kind, a bit similar to what you find in a dentist praxis so maybe strong cleaning odor or something but not very pleasant.

    Good bed, easy check in and check out. Well situated, nice view to the sea. Very clean.

    I thought I had booked a double bed, but that is only in the appartments. Also, as I was traveling by bus, it was a bit of a hike to the busstop.

    The staff was very friendly, and let me leave my luggage for a few hours while I explored the town before I left. The place is right on the water with a view over the fjord.

    Since the house is very old and the walls are thin, it can be a bit noisy if the other guests are loud type.

    This is a cozy little guesthouse, very clean, and the staff were very friendly! My room had a great view to the sea. It's very good value for money.

    I feel the whole place needs a renovation. Beds were not that comfortable. We had a room at the ground floor, where the kitchen was close by. When we checked in , our room had the smell from kitchen. The heater in room was not working and the staff arranged another portable heater for us , which we had to manage in the already cramped room. Room has wardrobe, which cannot be fully opened due to lack of space. Bathrooms also could be better. Zero soundproofing! Also please note that the Kitchen is not usable for guests for cooking. All you can use is the tea/coffee, toaster, microwave, fridge, and kettle. Guests are allowed to sit in the restaurant to have food.

    Owners of this place were really friendly. Its located pretty much in Blondous centre. We were able to find free parking spots right infront of the guest house.

    The soundproofing was not really good. We could handle it but if you are sensitive to sounds, take earplugs.

    Our room and common areas were clean. The room was small but we didn't need more for one night. Self check in was easy. I would recommend this place.

    Walls are thin and so we could hear the main door opening and closing as well as people moving around in the hallway and stairs.

    Excellent self check-in instructions, friendly woman greeted us and showed us to our room and provided information about bathrooms, kitchen and breakfast. Beds were comfy and room was perfect for our needs. Great option for a quick stay!

    Only common area was in the restaurant. Felt a little awkward bringing our food but the host insisted it was fine.

    The room was spacious and warm. Nice view out the window. Shared WC on our floor was very small but clean. One shower on main floor and two in the basement-great for getting your steps in. Host/owner was friendly. Very clean. Don't forget to take your shoes off at the door.

    The hallway with several rooms had only one bathroom, so we often had to go downstairs for another bathroom.

    Reviews for the guesthouse weren't very good so we were a little hesitant to stay there. But the reviews were so very wrong. It's not a 5-star hotel, but it was so much better. Comfortable with a wonderful mother and daughter who made our stay one of our favorite stays in all Iceland.
