I enjoyed our stay in room 8. It's on the 3rd floor with a pretty view of the bay. Our room was spacious, clean & comfortable. We had a shared bathroom with one other room on our floor. There are also 2 bathrooms on the second floor. They don't have a common area or place to prepare food/kitchen but they do provide a small fridge with a little freezer, which was useful. The staff is friendly and the location is fantastic. Overall a great place to stay.

This is one of the fuel properties that is available in Husavic. There is a new Fast Hotel as well. There was parking available and I liked it. They had provided coffee at 8 AM and fruit.
However, checking in was a bother of course we had prepaid and we got there at 6:30 and could not get through the front door. There was another person there trying to get in as well. They stated that they’re there until 7 PM. He finally had to go make an actual phone call to get us in and it turned out that there was a woman there the whole time but there’s no doorbell or any way to let them know that you were there. Also, once we got to our room, this is a property where you have a shared bathroom and when you try to get out of your room, the door did not open very easily and it was very difficult to get out to get to the bathroom you have to push the door hard while turning the button and then reach for the door knob to get out. I would say I would not stay there again.

Very nice, old building with lots of charm. Noise carries but the host does everything they can to help minimize including providing ear plugs and reminding guests to be courteous and quiet. Clean showers, free coffee in the morning, and clean quaint rooms. There was no laundry available like we thought but the host let us know about a launder in town. Parking was free and accessible. Very walkable to great shops and restaurants. We loved our stay.

Property was easy to find. Staff was kind and accommodating. Breakfast was delivered on time and it was excellent! Only issue is although it says free parking, there are only three designated spaces and 8 rooms in the guesthouse. So you have to find legal street parking. We ended up parking about a block or two up from the property.

We received a really warm welcome, and although breakfast was not served at the guesthouse, there was plenty of fruit, tea and coffee provided. The shared bathroom facilities were adequate for the number of guests so we never had to wait too long. The only thing we didn't like was the very thin walls, so we were woken by a couple in the next room having a heated discussion at midnight, and from above, by the creaking floorboards of the guest upstairs. Some people didn't observe quite time We didn't have a good night!

Friendly and cozy house and the location by the river Búðará is great. The guesthouse is on the banks of the ornamental garden, so a lovely morning walk is just around the corner. The room was spacious and clean, with tea and coffee area and 3 restrooms across the hall. They even welcomed my little dog with a little blanket, a water bowl and treats! Not a common thing in Iceland. The owners live in the house so assistance is never far away.

The room was very comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. They make an effort to make you feel comfy. The house is shoes off and you can have some flip flops like at home.
I took the breakfast and was super tasty. Simple and healthy.
The rooms are not completely sealed so you can get some sounds from the hallway and the room next door. This for very sensible people could be something to think about. But it’s not really bad. And they provide you with earplugs in the room which I thought was a very nice detail.
I would definitely stay again if I’m back in husavik :)

Quaint

Despite the slight inconvenience of not being able to pre-pay like the rest of our hotels, this one really stood out for its character. There is very little parking and you will need to lug your bags up several stairs. However, we were given a room on the top floor - amazing! It was so cute and full of charm, and quite big for Europe. There was a fridge downstairs we were able to store things in, and on the first floor a hot water carafe for making tea or coffee. It included a decent breakfast in the morning as well. The owner was incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome. We would stay there again.

Guest house close to Harbour

I've had both knees replaced in the last year, so the room on the third floor was a chore. At 63 I'm past the days of sharing bathrooms and shower facilities. Aside from these this is a pleasant house and the staff was pleasant and helpful. They set out a sufficient breakfast spread in the morning. If you have a car there are 3 spaces in a lot behind and then it's on the street parking.

Comfortable and spotless

Guests are required to remove their shoes on entry, which was a bit awkward while we were making multiple trips to/from the car during check-in. However, that policy helps the owner maintain this guesthouse in spotless condition. We had a ground floor room with 4 single beds and large windows overlooking the creek behind the house. The shared bathroom is right across the hall. The breakfast was superb, and there's a fantastic restaurant (Naustid) just across the street. The guesthouse owner gave us good information about birding locations in the area, which greatly enhanced our visit. Saltvik Farm, just south of town, offers horseback riding excursions along the coast. If the weather is clear, the scenery is breathtaking. We would happily stay here again.
