Quiet and clean

Super quiet for being right next to the airport. We got some great views of the glowing volcano in the middle of the night. There were not any issues with access to the shower or bathrooms as they were shared. The kitchen was so coinvent and nice to have for your morning coffee.

Wh had an o overnight stay before a flight. I can't imagine staying here otherwise. It's not in town but as far back of the airport as you can get- a 10 minute drive. The room was clean with two single beds and a chair. Everything white except the window blind. Almost all hard surfaces. Noise travelled far. Every trip by anybody to the shared bathroom was heard. There was a shared kitchen with coffee (cappucino machines) and tea evident. Some mixed nuts were in a dish. We did not use the kitchen as we arrived at 8:30 p.m. and were gone by 3:30 a.m. Getting to the room was through various corridors and through the kitchen. Moving 2 heavy suitcases was cumbersome and noisy. Bit for Iceland it was relatively cheap and it served its purpose.

Trying to charge me extra for washing some bed sheets and towels. Just like thr rest of the country, theyre nickel and diming me. Iceland has change so much and not for the better. This hotel is anoyjer example of that.

A decent stay for one night

Room was clean. This is just a place to stay though. Nothing special.

Broken shower, no bedside lamp or table, very uncomfortable,lumpy and badly made bed. 'Kitchen' had no cooker except for a microwave. Windows actually screwed shut by an amateur!

One of the best place to stay in Iceland, very convenient, close to airport and just 30 minute from blue lagoon. Host are very friendly and helpfull.

It’s ok for 1 night. Very clean and warm.Cosy nice decor. That’s what we liked In general the next time I’d choose different place. There was no any water in the morning ( for drink, washing or toalet) because of volcano eruption and we understand and didn’t complain about it but the owner wasn’t happy that people used plates for breakfast in the morning because they couldn’t wash after themselves later. Well I think people who paid for their stay have right at least to eat breakfast or use toilet. I need to add that nobody informed us earlier that there is problem with water. We found out from our driver so I resumed that the owners of this hotel knew as well

Good

Place was clean and accessible for late checkin . Will revisit again and recommend to my friends.

Very nice, quiet and clean. Never had any problem with the shared bathrooms as there are two on each floor with showers. Would stay again

Quick and easy cab ride here from the airport. I got a good nights sleep before catching my flight home.

We had a great time staying here, It was always very clean and comfortable and the staff were very accomodating.

I love the stay here. They grounds keepers were amazing and super friendly. The set up was nice and it felt like home away from home.

Perfect, close to airport.warm and clean with clean well equipped bathroom and kitchen. We even saw the aurora just outside:)

Our flight got cancelled due to weather conditions. We didn’t get our money back, not even a part of it. The guesthouses employee said “it doesn’t matter” if it’s our fault or not. We also did speak to Expedia, who couldn’t help us. Would have wished for a little understanding and maybe a refund of half the price due to the circumstances, which weren’t our nor the guesthouses fault. Wouldn’t book that again, felt mistreated.

Go location close to airport Suited our needs Staff very attentive and helpful

Only stay here if you have no other alternative.

For what this is, a stay the night before a flight, it was great. I wouldn't stay here for longer or use it as a homebase for traveling around, but it was unbelievably clean, quite well appointed, and reasonably priced. What else could you ask for.

Very nice kitchen common space and right next to the airport. Perfect for layovers!

Cleanliness hospitality

The bathroom was filthy. Piles of dirty towels and other peoples clothes. Socks drying on the radiator. A trash can with someone’s clothes in it. Flies circling the light. Unflushed feces in the toilet. Hair and soap scum all over the shower.

everything was PERFECT! we loved our stay in this place, the hosts were super kind and helpful all the time, they really care about their place because they were always there checking that everything was perfect for the new guests and for us. We loved the technology that the house has, and the amenities we had in our room: huge smart tv and mini fridge. I can’t thank enough the hosts for being super caring and for making everything so cozy and perfect. I’ll return to Iceland very soon I hope and I would definitely stay here again.

I reserved a family room with three beds. There is no attendant on the property and when you call the number listed you either get hung up on or are given a dismissive response. This should not be listed as a high rated property.

Great ghesthouse and very comfy. However, we didnt had any light in our room so we had to decrease the note a little bit.

This property is excellent to stay when you have an early flight and just need a place to crash the night before. The bed was comfortable and it was surprisingly quiet considering how many people were there. Everything worked fine with the entry codes.

Clean & well maintained

Good points: close to airport and large screen TV (which could not connect) Bad points: one shared bathroom for 9 rooms on 1st floor and one shared bathroom for 4 rooms on ground floor - this is a poor ratio of rooms to bathrooms, especially if guests need to leave guesthouse at similar times for flights! I did not notice that the guesthouse only has shared bathrooms when booking: my fault! As an aside, the bathroom sinks are not deep enough, so when guests have used the sink to shave or wash, the floor is covered with water... There are no staff on the premises, (access is by code only, I assume to keep down costs), so there is nobody to ask for extra towels, (only one small towel provided, with small hand 'flannels' provided in shared bathrooms), or to help with problems with equipment, etc. The rooms are tiny and there was poor, (or no), sound-proofing of the windows given that the location is close to the airport and I was still woken by flights at 01:30 - I had to leave for an early morning flight too! If the price was around €50-€60 then the value would be reasonable, purely for ease of access to the airport: the rate was more than double this amount and so overall, provided very poor value for money...even for a budget guesthouse. The Bank guesthouse is more like a basic hostel. Interesting aspect of the guesthouse was two large bank safes on the ground floor: I assume this is a reference to the 'bank' element of the guesthouse name!

We are quite disappointed. A front door code was given along with a room code since there is no front desk. Both codes worked fine but there was a couple sleeping in our bed when we walked into our room. Apparently they weren’t assigned a room and the cleaning staff gave them our booked room (no changes to door codes which is a bit scary). When we called the owner to ask what was going on, he booked us a room at a nearby hotel. At the guest house we asked for a king bed and told the owner we would like the same at the replacement hotel but we’re given a room with 2 single beds.

There was a historical bank vault in a mini museum on this property! Very cool to see! Otherwise no complaints at all, and this property left a bit of snack for us to eat, and also helped us look for a lost item
