Advertised to have bar and restaurant but there were none. No pool or washing machine. This was not communicated in advance so when we arrived we had to scramble to find amenities after a long day.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property on Expedia shows a swimming pool- there is none. Property on Expedia mentions restaurant and bar- there is none. The description of this property gives the impression that they have these on site. They do not even remotely have anything like this on the property. This reflects very poorly on Expedia. This entire experience felt like a bait and switch.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Small and old property. The listing pictures give the impression that the property has a pool. The pool is close by (800'), but not part of the facility, and available at extra cost. The bathroom is small and basic. The view is great once you look past the parking and garbarge cans behind the building. Suggest looking at other properties in the area. For food, the Retro Mathus nearby was great.

Great stay

We booked the stay very late on the same day, and arrived only two hours later. The room was clean and nice. Good size and private bathroom. Very comfortable bed. Cute little kitchen to make your own food. We were very happy with our stay.

Excellent for a simple stay in the North

Wonderful 2-week stay photographing Northern Lights and exploring the middle-north of Iceland. Excellent, comfortable, basic rooms, with a very nice shared kitchen. There's a small store across the street with gas/benzin, a moderate range of foods and supplies, and a selection of fresh fruits/vegetables. Host is responsive and friendly, and multiple times asked if I needed anything. I can highly recommend Sunnuberg Guesthouse. It is clean, well-maintained, and comfortable as a home base for exploring the region.

Pretty small, just 5 rooms and 1 kitchen area. The rooms and bathroom were plenty for each unit. One store, one restaurant that close early, so get food to microwave or bring something with you. The city pool is nearby and was great around sunset.

The property is very basic. While it is very clean, the room we had was very small. The shower was tiny. There was barely enough room for two medium size suitcases. While we appreciate the rules of supply and demand we thought the price charged per night was excessive given the property.
