- Evgeniya (10/5): Уютный элегантный мини-отель. - Элегантный мини-отель. 3 номера на втором этаже, кухня-столовая и ресепшен на первом. На стенах оригинальные картины художника - друга хозяина отеля. В номере был хорошо изданный фотоальбом с его же произведениями. Нас встречал, провожал, угощал завтраком хозяин - очень дружелюбный и приветливый. В номере все удобства, включая джакузи с природной водой, содержащей сероводород, балкон, Wi-Fi. Чай, кофе - в свободном доступе. Завтрак достойный. Парковка на улице около дома бесплатная. Прогулочная центральная улица - в 10 минутах ходьбы. Организовано всё скорее по-домашнему, приятно и комфортно.

- Caitlin (9/5): Fantastic value for your money. - Really lovely help from Gisli. The most comfortable bed i slept in, in all of Iceland. Really lovely place. The bot water really does smell of sulfur.
- LUCIA (6/5): - Estaba bien localizado. Baño en la habitación.
Te hace el apaño. Bastante viejillo, no tenía kettle en la habitación para poder prepararse algo.
- Mylène (9/5): - Le confort la taille de la chambre bien équipée et le fait qu'elle soit au rez-de-chaussée Le manque de réactivité de l'hôte et le fait que ça soit pas tres bien indiqué pour accéder à la guesthouse
- Camilo (10/5): - Excelente ubicación, la casa es hermosa y el cuarto es super bonito y acogedor. Na
- Balazs (9/5): Quiet stay close to the city center - FE Gisting is a beautiful old villa up the hill just off of central Akureyri. The room is full of vintage furniture (apart from the huge TV) and the free parking nearby made our stay nearly perfect. The city center is in walking distance, although a bit downhill. We enjoyed a fairly big room and the free coffee.

- CARLOS (10/5): - Place is very easy to find and minutes from everything.
- Vera (8/5): Comfortable place in a great location - The location is amazing.
The rooms are nice and the bed comfortable.
Overall it's a nice place to stay for 2 nights and easy access to the center, swimming pool and gym just across the street.. there are no windows , which is the only thing that I didn't like it. and the furniture is a little outdated.
- Helgi Már (10/5): - Hreint herbergi, góð staðsetning, lipur þjónusta.
- Laura M (7/5): Bien - Está cerca del centro para ir andando; justo al lado De la Iglesia y la piscina municipal. El señor de recepción es muy amable. La habitación es amplia y el baño también. Sirven desayuno si lo reservas, pero bastante caro
- Romeo (8/5): - Camera e bagno spaziosi e puliti Letti e cuscini non particolarmente comodi
- Fabio (10/5): - La struttura che abbiamo scelto per il nostro soggiorno di due giorni a ad Akureyri era una grande camera con bagno, posta al pianterreno di una vecchia dimora del '900. Letto matrimoniale comodo sebbene un po' alto, bagno essenziale ma pulito, con un buon box doccia. Il signore che si occupa della reception e della colazione, è un anziano molto gentile e disponibile. La sera prima ti chiede a che ora vuoi consumare la colazione, che ti prepara lui stesso. Sono disponibili dolci, brioche, poi cibo salato come formaggio, prosciutto cotto, salame, pomodori, cetrioli, succhi di frutta, yoghurt, latte, cereali, oltre a macchina per il caffè, forno a micro onde. Il locale è una coloratissima cucina stile anni'60. L'abitazione è a pochi minuti dal centro di Akureyri. Parcheggio sulla strada, in zona non a pagamento. Molto consigliato
- Denise (8/5): Perfect location! - The location was great, the staff was kind and gracious, the room was very comfortable. My room was at the front of the building by the entry door, so I had to keep my blinds closed or everyone walking into the building (or on the street - I had windows facing both directions) would be looking into my room. The bathroom fan ran non-stop (the positive is, it was just like a white noise machine, so maybe it helped me sleep). ;)
- DAVIDE (10/5): Struttura e host degni di nota! - La casa è una meraviglia! L’host una persona educata e cordiale
La camera veramente pulita ed elegante
Abbiamo usufruito di una eccellente prima colazione dove non è mancato proprio nulla e che abbiamo consumato in una cucina dal fascino vintage con arredi nordici penso anni 50 … ci siamo sentiti accolti in modo speciale! Nulla
- Piotr (10/5): - Miła obsługa, fajny pokój, super łazienka. Dobra lokalizacja. Bez zastrzeżeń.
- Moya (10/5): Delightful host, roomy and comfortable accommodation near the town centre. - This is a lovely, comfortable establishment which is very close to the town centre, offers easy parking out the front and the owner is a very genial and welcoming gentleman. Our room was very spacious and comfortable, had a lovely view over the town and provided everything we needed for our stay.

- Christine (9/5): Other than that, it’s a great place to stay—good location and plenty of parking. - It was an old house renovated into a modern one. I liked the antique wooden scent combined with the modern look of the second-floor bathroom.

Would definitely recommend this place!

Also the room had black out shades that helped with the light summer nights.
