"Though there is no check-in desk, someone arrived quickly after a phone call to take us to our room. The guest house was spotless, and the kitchen/dining area had everything we needed to prepare a hearty breakfast and hot drinks. The view of Kirkjufell from our room was an unexpected treat! Walking distance to several restaurants and cafes, next door to a fascinating gallery spread out all over the area, and a short drive to Kirkjufell itself. This is a nice place to stay if you want the ferry from Stykkishólmur, too!"
