Some of the staff are a little rude. Blinds dont do a very good job blocking the light. Dinner is very expensive. Other than that the room was comfortable and large. Property is a stop over for tour bouses so it can get VERY busy. (Which is probably why some of the older stuff are rude and dont care) Make sure you time your breakfast so you miss the tour buses.

Comfortable stay, friendly service

We enjoyed our stay at Guesthouse Brekka. They had a clean and new pack and play along with toys for our kids to use during our stay, which was a very nice touch. The location is in close proximity to Husavik, and was a nice out of the city stopping place for us. The unit is well-equipped and spacious and the family that runs the guesthouse is extremely friendly and courteous. The only critical feedback is that the Hotels.com listing should list that laundry is for a fee because as-listed it sounds a bit like it's in-unit. We would definitely return should we find ourselves in Northern Iceland again!

I stayed in house 5, room 17. So cute inside! It was wonderful and spotless when I arrived. It was modern and offered the amenities listed. The woman at the front desk was very kind and gave clear directions to my room. Although I did not eat breakfast in the morning, it looked delightful as I was checking out. The location offers many views and was easy to access. Thank you for everything

Staff, Accommodation and Breakfast was excellent. However, room should have, at the minimum a microwave and a fridge (mini) for the amount charged. When travelling around Iceland, we dont see many stores and restaurants. With special dietary requirements, cooking ur own food is a key.

Tidy, comfortable, new refurbished (?) rooms with all that we needed. Good breakfast and we appreciated the restaurant in the evenings. All the staff were very helpful, and nice to be around. Whilst (of course!) there isn’t much directly around it was well placed to get to Húsavík and then around the diamond circle , for Myvatn, Dettifos, the thermal bathes etc - suited us perfectly !

Iceland touring

One night stay with our friends, we stayed in cabin 11 newly renovated and it was very nice, clean and all amenities. Each of us had a bedroom and very comfy. Lounge living area good size for four adults. There is a outdoor patio but to cold for us to sit outside. They had black out curtains which was great, first place on our trip that actually had them and thought of the comfort of their guests. Breakfast included and location quiet. Wifi nice and strong.
