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.

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!!

Just a 10 minute walk to the buzzing downtown. The guesthouse was clean and tidy and though we weren’t in Akureyri long, we appreciated staying In a walkable location with coffee in the morning.

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.

I did not expect this to be a “hostel” type of place. We had to share bathrooms and it was very much unpleasant. Kind of like living in college all over again lol..

good location near the church. Liked the clean room, but parking is nighmare. Only 4 are available for 10 rooms. street parking is only options for the weekdays with parking fee. Weekend is fine. We had a shower issue but property manager responses were bit annoying.

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.

This was the only place left even after reserving 6 mos in advance. Felt more like a hostel which is fine. But for a family of 4, we would have preferred someplace with more conveniences like parking, quiet from the common areas, larger restroom, and separate room from the bunk bed. Also since no one was on site, felt less welcoming than a traditional hotel. Otherwise it worked out fine. We appreciated the accommodations.

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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities

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.

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.
