Great location to use as a base for our visit of the islands. We rented the full apartment but it was apparent it could also be used as two separate rooms rented out with a shared bathroom- so one bedroom was actually the kitchenette. Just need to be aware if you actually plan to use the kitchen that it is a bedroom! On street parking . Never saw the owner but comunication was great through Expedia app.

Such a lovely stay at Guesthouse Arny. We loved the shared kitchen and common area. This made it so easy to make dinner and relax with our young children in the evening. There were even games and toys that really excited them! We would recommend to anyone coming to the island. Great place, great amenities. Close to the ferry. No complaints.

Our room at guesthouse Arni was very comfortable and clean. Our host was an excellent communicator and instructions and expectations were very clear. Location is great for exploring the island. We had a bit of a wait for the one bathroom with a shower because all the rooms were full while we were there, but there was a second bathroom with a toilet. We would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Very simple but clean - 1 shared shower!

Clean guesthouse - there are not a lot of accommodations available here so we were happy to have a place but just really know what a guest is before you book. There was 1 shower for the whole place (we counted at least 14 guests) and one extra toilet upstairs. So maybe this is the day you don’t shower : ) manage your expectations and you will be happier. Beds were comfortable and host was nice. I never got an email with instructions from hotels.com so I had to call and get the instructions and room number the day we arrived. If you want to see the puffins you might need to stay overnight to give yourself a couple of chances to go to the cliffs and just hang for a while. You have to be patient. Also with the money you save staying here make sure to splurge on dinner at Slippurinn - best meal we had in Iceland!
