Good location, walkable distance to restaurants and city center. Limited parking could be a problem for late check ins. Door codes were convenient, easy check in and entry. Shared kitchen was fully equipped. Spacious room but there was a stain in the ceiling which could be potentially a leak upstairs, hopefully they will fix it. The shower was a bit small, the curtain wraps around you when it gets wet. Plastic shower curtain might be a better fit. Good stay in general, spacious room. Laundry facility would be a great idea since the area has only one commercial laundry.

Dark, dingy and run down

I usually don't leave bad reviews but I feel this property misleads customers in the extreme. The place is dark, dingy and run down. The photos are clearly taken with a very wide angle lens and the white balance is whacked up to present a clean, bright interior. This was (by far) the most disappointing accommodation we stayed at during an otherwise fantastic 7 night trip around the loop road. Look elsewhere!!

No towels provided. We were asked to use a 'communal towel'... and share with others...? Beds were old and I had back ache the day after, the rooms were loud from noises outside the building. Parking is street parking and check in/check out times are very inconvenient. There is a hotel right across the street that was cheaper and cleaner... unfortunately it was not available for 2 nights so we had to sleep here for a night.

1 seule cuisine sous équipée pour 12 chambres, (3 couteaux 2 torchons vite trempés 1 essuie main pas de café 1 petite poubelle). Matelas inconfortable et oreiller bcp trop mince, des stores qui n'occultent rien et un peu cassés. Bruit infernal d'une soufflerie sèche mur au sous-sol cause réfection 2e cuisine (inutilisable). Table à manger en plein milieu du couloir à côté des toilettes au sous sol toujours avec le bruit du sèche mur. Odeur de renfermé. 4places parking pour tous. Suite à notre plainte du bruit proposition d'un autre logement. Message reçu à 8h30 pour 1 check out à 10h mais nous étions trop éloignés pour être à l'heure.les chambres du haut sont peut être bien mais les chambres au sous sol sont à éviter absolument. La porte d'entrée est bruyante. Dommage que je ne puisse pas m'être de photos, ça ne mâche pas. Bref établissement à fuir.

What is unique about this property is the absence of hot water. Space is pretty limited in a kitchen, so you have to wait some time before having dinner.

Acco guesthouse is a great walkable distance from a handful of dining options and shopping. The room we stayed in was very spacious and the beds were large and comfortable. The bathroom however, was quite tight. The shower ledge takes up a lot of room even though the shower is very small. The ledge also had a decent size chunk out of it which was a big hazard when we had just woken up in the morning and weren’t used to our surroundings.

Avevamo prenotato una camera con bagno privato, abbiamo trovato un post-it attaccato sulla porta del nostro bagno con scritto: “inagibile per ristrutturazione, ci scusiamo. Usare bagno in comune.” Non ci sono state inviate le istruzioni con i codici per entrare, nessuno presente in struttura all’orario indicato per il check-in. Non raccomandato in toto. Chiesto rimborso totale e cambiato alloggio.

DO NOT STAY HERE! The property is unclean and poorly kept. When I got out of the car, the first thing I noticed was a foul odor emanating from the house bins, which had remained full since my arrival till I departed two days later. There were flies both inside and outside the house. The scent in the house is awful. A combination of unclean and strong culinary odors. The room was filthy, and I have pictures to prove it. The advantage is that the guest house is conveniently located.

Overall it was a good, cheap stay for a night. It's not very far from all the restaurants and bars, but it is also at the top of a fairly large hill. The facilities were nice enough. Though the tv in my room was flickering. I'd recommend if you just need a place to stay for a night or two.

Would not stay again

The steps were very slippery and one of the metal edges was loose. My friend fell down the steps and skinned up her back. They don’t want you to wear your shoes inside, so that makes a dangerous condition. The inside of the room left something to be desired. We found a dirty sock under the bed, the blinds was just a single roller shade no curtains, and it didn’t come all the way down to the bottom due to the window hook. The other guests were not friendly, but I don’t blame the hotel for that.

Para una noche

Muy fácil contactarles para el check in. A algo menos de 15 minutos andando del centro de Akureyri. Habitación muy pequeña, camas no muy cómodas. Baño chiquitito (si te duchas se moja la zona del lavabo). No está bien insonorizado y se oye bastante el ruido de los coches. La limpieza, en fin, quedaba un calcetín de otro huésped debajo de la cama... Cocina compartida (sin papel de cocina).

We stayed in 5 hotels in our loop around Iceland. This was by far our worst stay. No parking(fewer spaces than there are rooms) Greeted by a huge pile of garbage at the front steps. Check in was a hassle. Lovely city though. This place is corporate owned and we will avoid them now always.
