Matkat – Svínafell

Cheap guesthouse, a bit far away from places and there is no breakfast, the nearest store is about 1.5km away. The room has a fridge and an old tv. Shared kitchen, toilet and shower. There is no staff in the guesthouse.

The location is amazing! So close to everything. And the apartment is large for the price. But we did not have the greatest experience. When we arrived, the oven was dirty, the couch was dirty, the shower smelled awful, and the hot water in the bathroom didn't work. We were able to communicate with the host but we were visited by three different people on 3 different days to fix the shower smell and fix the hot water in the bathroom. Even though they comped us 2 hours extra at check out time (not enough for what we had to deal with TBH), they still turned off our access to the keypad at 10am so we couldn't actually go anywhere between 10am and 12pm. And also know that the bar below plays music from 9am to 9pm which is heard in the apartment.

Great location, apartment in good condition, clean and well equiped!

The place was fine however there are cheaper, quieter options that also include breakfast and parking.
