A Great View Review
Pros:

The couple who host are incredibly kind. They are there if you need them, and generally keep to themselves if you are looking to be more private. Their home is gorgeous, and they have more than one room for rent. There are two bathrooms and one shower. The shower and tub are immaculate and give you a great view from the backdoor. Breakfast was incredible and even came with fresh baked goods and homemade jam. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Cons:

I didn't love the idea of staying in someone's home, at first, but after you meeting the owners of the home I felt much more comfortable.

A guest house that lives up to its name!
Pros:

I cannot speak more highly of our stay at this guesthouse. It lives up to its name with truely stunning views, scenery only outdone by the wonderful hospitality and warm welcome we recieved.

We came on my partners 40th birthday, which i let them know in advance - they made such a fuss of us on his Birthday, decorating our room and bringing us a birthday cake!

The guesthouse is increadibly clean and the beds where soooo comfy (exactly what we needed after the drive from reykjavik!). Breakfast was also lovely, and getting to eat it with views that only iceland can offer was special.

Close enough to the centre to Akureyri that you can access everything you would want from the city, but far enough away that you feel in a rural oasis.

A truely special place, hosted by wonderful people. Highly reccomend.

Lovely home and lovely hosts. Really enjoyed the time around the breakfast table with the other guests. Do yourself a favor and make time just to sit in the living room and enjoy the incredible views.

La casa è molto bella e i proprietari sono gentili. È stato solo un po’ strano usare i loro stessi bagni. Anche la colazione buona, si vede che ci tengono. Esperienza positiva

Pros:

Si tratta di un casa in cui vive una famiglia che ha riservato 4 camere ai turisti.
Dopo aver conosciuto la proprietaria di casa e superato lo stupore di trovarci in casa di qualcuno siamo stati accompagnati in giro per la casa: MERAVIGLIOSA.
Essendo una casa a tutti gli effetti era dotata proprio di tutto, inclusa una cucina supplementare dedicata agli ospiti per la gestione autonoma della cena. Possibilità anche di lavare e asciugare i propri indumenti. Camera comoda e discretamente ampia. Living room mozzafiato. Colazione ottima.
Bagno principale caldo, comodo, pulito e profumato.

Cons:

Nulla da ridire, esperienza molto positiva.

Pros:

Todo perfecto, servicios, comodidad, ubicación y el desayunado espectacular.

Cons:

Lo único es que, al ser una casa particular, en las zonas comunes están los dueños, cosa que incomoda un poco.
