阿伯特科旅館(Apótek Guesthouse)

This hotel is very.great and convenient. And it is located at the art street in the city center.

it's not a good experience

We had two rooms; each small; but sufficient. Bathrooms very compact; showers bit small if you are taller person. They offered a shared space on the 4th floor with full kitchen and lounge area. There is no Elevator for luggage etc. There was no TV in the rooms; and no glasses either...you had to go to the 4th floor to get one if you wanted one. The staff here was cordial but not nearly as friendly and helpful as we had experienced at other locations. We did have dinner in their restaurant; and it was very good.

It was a huge pity that arrived so late in the night, and had to get up around 6.30 to get my transfer to the East. But it was relaxing to find such a nice room. Almost a suite indeed because of the size! And the views to the real and quiet Icelandic snow... in such a magical town like Akureyri was definitely worth it. Also the small distance ( just 5 minutes walking ) to the bus station.

My room in guesthouse was on third floor and was spacious and clean. My room did not have a private bathroom, so I had use of two shared bathrooms at end of corridor. The shower doors on showers in both bathrooms were broken, doors were basically hanging off their hinges, one was so bad shower was unusable, other one broken enough for door not to close, so water leaked onto floor. There was a hole in ceiling above shower in one bathroom. There were very few places available in Akureyri, so prices were inflated and for £123 per night, this accommodation was appalling. I was staying 2 more nights on my return to Akureyri and had unfortunately paid in advance on a non-refundable rate, thankfully only £65 per night this time. I spoke to one of the owners on my return to property and showed her photos of the broken showers and hole in ceiling to give them a chance to fix things before submitting a review. She said she would get her husband to look at it, but when I left 2 days later, the bathrooms were still in the same appalling state, I can only assume they are not really interested in fixing these issues. The owner seemed shocked at the state of the bathrooms when I showed her the photos, but there is no excuse for owners not to know about this, even if other guests did not report it, what about the cleaning staff, what about the owners inspecting their own premises once in a while? Suggests they don't care about their guests. Would not recommend and would not stay again.

I was given a room on the second floor for my second stay and the bathrooms on this floor were okay, at least the shower doors were not broken. But the fact that nothing was done to fix the broken showers after I had reported the problem, suggests to me that the owners do not really care about their guests and therefore I would not recommend this place and I would not stay again.

Se potete scegliete un altro posto per pernottare. La colazione è orribile ci sono le mosche,la sala è sporca e puzza di fritto della cena precedente oltre a cose di dubbio sapore e pochissime. Salvo solo la camera decente e grossomodo pulita ma se potete andate altrove! Esperienza mistica. Se proprio non trovate altro, restare solo a dormire..ma la colazione è un grandissimo NO!!! Assolutamente NO! Occhio ad avere il bagno in camera altrimenti vi tocca il bagno in comune.. e non so, visto il luogo della colazione..

PESSIMO. Abbiamo dormito in una stanza singola trasformata in doppia. Non c’era spazio per aprire le valige.. Solo una presa per caricare telefono e in mezzo al letto. No luce per leggere, no bicchiere in bagno. Bagno ceco davvero microscopico e, aiuto, senza efficace aerazione! La colazione, abbastanza triste e misera, si fa nel ristorante di fianco che puzza di fritto e i cui proprietari non brillano di simpatia e gentilezza. Lo sconsiglio vivamente.

Pros : area was great. Free parking nearby (not on site). Bars and shops right out front. Easy to find. Good comuunal space and kitchen Cons : blood drops on my bedding. Shared bathrooms at end of hall were not clean. Shower doors were hanging off the hinges. No elevator. Very loud. Could hear toilets flushing from my room, and very heavy doors closing repeatedly.
