Lyngás Guesthouse

Hostal para alojarse cuando vas de paso por el este de Islandia. Alojamiento muy bien equipado y con varias zonas comunes. Habitaciones limpias y cómodas. Mal insonorizadas, demasiado ruido, las habitaciones dan a la sala de estar. Pocas duchas, en la planta de abajo los WC y duchas estan incorporados lo que genera que se acumule gente.

Absolut tolle saubere und neue Unterkunft- perfekt für die Durchreise!

Excellent guesthouse. Great location and plenty of on site parking. Lovely, clean and spacious rooms with great shared bathroom facilities and amazing shared kitchen and dining area. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment and utensils and tea and coffee facilities. Good, clear information for self check in and great reception area. Excellent stop off for a ring road trip: short turn directly off route 1.

Beds were hard and uncomfortable, only a single pillow for each person that provided no support. There were 2 bathrooms on our floor, 1 was in significantly better condition than the other. The showers were very slow to drain to the point where you had to turn the water off, resistance of the adjustable head was gone so it kept falling to the bottom, water temperature barely got above luke warm. Despite there being signs about quiet hours, people coming in for late check-in were loud and the early risers were making all kinds of noise in the kitchen

I'd absolutely go back there. No reals Cons in my opinion but we didn't actually use the showers. However the bathrooms were clean from what I could see. The kitchen was clean and well appointed with the necessary items. Rooms were clean and a bit spacious actually which was awesome for 4 of us. However two of our number stated the pillows and comforter stunk of febreeze. Two of us noticed nothing although we were assured that our bedding also stunk hahaha. Check in was brief and didn't instruction us on how to check out and after about 7pm there was no one present until the day after we left according to the sign on the door.

While the lounging and dining area was large and bright, the kitchen was tiny and poorly laid out. There was no way to have two groups prepare a meal at the same time, the sink was in the way of the fridge and the conduction cooktop did not respond to touch. One of the three days, we had no towels to wash or dry our dishes ( which were hand washed by the guests,poorly!) The bed was hard, lumpy and saggy. The bathrooms were adequately clean, but the air circulation was very poor if the door was shut between users as it often was. Their smells persisted for at least ten minutes after they left the room. The hallways and dining area was extremely echo-y. There was no way to carry on two conversations in the room at the same time. We arrived at the usual time guests would arrive - 2 other parties arrived while we were waiting - we had to ring up an employee who was off site and had to wait quite some time. We had the feeling this place was all about the owner making money and nothing else. They charge 5,000 ISK for one load of laundry! Our smaller room did not have information about the services in town but the larger rooms had all the usual information one would expect to welcome you into a new town. Despite the good breeze outside, the windows did not open enough to let enough air flow through to ventilate the rooms. We decided to leave the guesthouse one day early and forfeit the cost to get new accommodations.
