Overall it was a good, cheap stay for a night. It's not very far from all the restaurants and bars, but it is also at the top of a fairly large hill. The facilities were nice enough. Though the tv in my room was flickering. I'd recommend if you just need a place to stay for a night or two.

Room was small but adequate. Bathroom had multiple broken tiles in the shower, a tiny sink and minimal water pressure. Towels were very thin. Beds were comfortable.

Acco guesthouse is a great walkable distance from a handful of dining options and shopping. The room we stayed in was very spacious and the beds were large and comfortable. The bathroom however, was quite tight. The shower ledge takes up a lot of room even though the shower is very small. The ledge also had a decent size chunk out of it which was a big hazard when we had just woken up in the morning and weren’t used to our surroundings.

good location near the church. Liked the clean room, but parking is nighmare. Only 4 are available for 10 rooms. street parking is only options for the weekdays with parking fee. Weekend is fine. We had a shower issue but property manager responses were bit annoying.

DO NOT STAY HERE! The property is unclean and poorly kept. When I got out of the car, the first thing I noticed was a foul odor emanating from the house bins, which had remained full since my arrival till I departed two days later. There were flies both inside and outside the house. The scent in the house is awful. A combination of unclean and strong culinary odors. The room was filthy, and I have pictures to prove it. The advantage is that the guest house is conveniently located.

The room is clean, but the water in the shower and sink smells like sulfur. They need to put a filter for the water. The pillow cases were old and the zippers to keep them closed were broken. Staff was not very helpful as we were traveling with another couple and due to a maintenance issue they sent the other couple to a different hotel. They made no attempt to keep us together and it could have been done. We were not happy with that as it caused a lot of issues.

The room was in bad shape, there was a bad smell in the room and overall in the hole building. The coloured bedsheets were in terrible shape, they smelled bad and looked as if they weren't washed at all. Couldn't wait for the stay to be over, will never stay there again.

The place is worn down and outdated. The posted pictures must be taken from many years ago. They don't match with the actual conditions. The bathroom is very old and the water can splashed all over. The kitchen on the 1st floor is also very outdated. I wouldn't recommend it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is by far the worst place I have ever stayed in this 10 day trip to Iceland. 1. The parking is a big problem if you are not one of the first four cars to arrive 2 the bathroom was unbearably smelly and unhygienic. The shower curtains were full of mould and smelt horrible. You would need another shower if you came in contact with them. If the shower head sprays wanted on them, they will flip out and the whole bathroom will be flooded. 3. There was only one thin pillow per person causing uncomfortable sleep. 4. There is no one to talk to or ask for help. 5. Ceiling has water damage showing the problem is in every room. The list can go on, but I would recommend staying elsewhere for the price you are paying.

Our room was ok. The bathroom was old and appeared dirty, the entire bathroom holds condensation and becomes wet due to no circulation. The shower was missing the drain cover, luckily we had flip flops and wore them during showering. The linens were very dated, with sheets piling and not staying on, the desk chair was dirty. No staff at this location
