Very small, skylite with no blind, so light comes in very early morning. Had to walk up 3 flighs of rickety stairs with suitcase. No elevator

Good location.

Room was small but it was ok as it was just me. Entrance not level with street.

I was able to keep my bicycle inside. Room was close to the entrance, kitchen and bathroom. Everything was clean. Less expensive than other places and I was able to get 4 nights in a row so didn’t have to move.

It would be better with more bathrooms

Stayed in August 2025

The shower on the basement floor really needs to be replaced. They can't help loud guests but the front door was heavy and constantly slammed shut which normally would be fine but it was so loud that the noise carried down to the basement and all the way down the hallway. Would be great if they would install a door closer or something else to help slow the door's closing speed and dampen the impact, reducing the noise.

Location was great and they are renovating the outside. Staff was friendly and helpful, even willing to assist with our laundry to make sure it got done.

In the studio: the washing machine is inoperable. There was no mirror anywhere (asked and recieved one the next day). No shower curtain. No black out curtain for the bedroom to sleep. The matress on the floor - a simple bed box would be nice for hygenics. The 3 bd hostel- no option to turn down the heater. Window wasnt sufficient to cool down. Only 1 toilet and 1 shower for everyone in the building. Need at least 1 more.

Loved the location, ease of check in, cleanliness, and the front desk staff.

We were promised a room with a large double bed, but were assigned a small, narrow room with 3 single beds. Barely room to move between two of them.

A little run down, but still pleasant.

Very convenient and a good value.

It was a little tricky checking in after arriving fairly early in the day. There is a buzzer and someone will eventually come and help you but there is no obvious reception. However, we very much appreciated being able to check in well before the official check in time.

The kitchen was small but functional. We were able to cook meals in the kitchen as long as we were there on off peak times. The fridge is a little crowded but we were always able to find space for our food. The laundry was very useful and easy to use. The beds were comfortable and the pillows were great. Nice and clean bedding and towel. Not a lot of bathrooms or showers but eventually you could get in. There was always the option of using one on another floor. Other guests are often out for the day so the place is fairly quiet. Great location on a quieter street just off the Main Street. We were able to walk to everything.

Restrooms. Toilet was broken, drain in sink almost clogged

Location

Our room was very hot and little fresh air although we opened all windows. Shower could be nicer. Walls are very thin and sound goes easily between rooms.

The facilies and beds are good, and staff was nice.

Good location, lovely view from the room - we stayed at the top floor, quiet room.

Simple, quite, good bed, not crowded

Great place, simple and practical for hubbing to Hornstrandir. Second stay there and it remains a place to use

It would be nice to add a blow dryer to the studio.

We stayed in a studio apartment on the top floor. It's rather small but equipped with almost all essentials for a short stay. The bedding is old but clean; the bed is comfortable.

Old and needed some attention

The shower could have been a little nicer

Location is great, right in the center.

Could be so much better with a few tweaks. We had a studio which was fine although no settee as on photos of studios on website. Kitchen poorly equipped. No sharp knife, no bowls, minimum equipment. Had to take crockery from the shared kitchen. Shared kitchen not clean and poorly stocked. With a bit more love, could have better rating especially as price more expensive than other places we stayed in Iceland.

Location. Nice building. Very traditional. Good late check out.

Not the best price-value ratio in town, I think you can find better in Isafjordur on the budget scale. However, perfectly serviceable if other options are fully booked. The bathrooms and showers are still the same after many visit, the sliding doors even catch and stick in exactly the same old place. In some sense, it feels like an old home you return to once in a while.

I have stayed here several times, generally okay if other options are full. Old house that is spacious and homey and comfortable. There is a great cafe (Husid) on the opposite side of the street, and the hostel is located close to a road intersection with the gas station.

The stairs wer a bit steep and uncomfortable. No problem if you’re young and adaptable, it could be challenging if you have issues in moving

Good position in the centre of the town

It was a Guesthouse. It was not luxurious but that did not matter. We were warm. All fine.

Central location. We got what we paid for. We were mother and son traveling cheaply. We could cook our food. The bathroom (shared) was clean and a short distance from the room. Being on the first floor made life easy for me. Free parking outside was good. The host was friendly and close to hand.

Shower could use an upgrade

Super central, perfect for exploring Ísafjödur. Rooms were clean and beds comfy.

not very clean in shared bathroom.

convenient. basics covered.

Given the amount of traffic, you will probably need to wait to use the bathroom, and it also makes the shared facilities (bathroom, kitchen and living room) difficult to keep clean. I think that's to be expected with a property like this.

My family of five (two 8yr olds and a 5yr old) stayed here in August 2024. We stayed in a large room with 7 twin beds, which was very functional for us. The property is a hostel, and it seemed very well trafficked while we were there.

Small rooms, kitchen not very well equipped.
