At Acco Guesthouse, travellers frequently praise the walkable location, but reviews also highlight drawbacks such as limited on-site parking, crowded shared kitchen spaces, and inconsistent cleanliness ranging from mold and odors to worn linens.
Room experiences vary widely: some are spacious and comfortable, while others feel small, noisy, and bright due to minimal blackout coverings, with beds ranging from comfy to painful. Service and communication are mixed, with reports of late or missing door codes and no staff on site for assistance. A few guests also noted hot water or bathroom maintenance issues. Expect a budget, self-managed stay in a convenient area with trade-offs.

Facilities
On-site parking is limited, often pushing guests to street parking. The shared kitchen helps self-catering but is sometimes small, crowded, or understocked, and a few guests reported hot-water outages; access is via door codes.

No towels provided. We were asked to use a 'communal towel'... and share with others...? Beds were old and I had back ache the day after, the rooms were loud from noises outside the building. Parking is street parking and check in/check out times are very inconvenient. There is a hotel right across the street that was cheaper and cleaner... unfortunately it was not available for 2 nights so we had to sleep here for a night.

Good location, walkable distance to restaurants and city center. Limited parking could be a problem for late check ins. Door codes were convenient, easy check in and entry. Shared kitchen was fully equipped. Spacious room but there was a stain in the ceiling which could be potentially a leak upstairs, hopefully they will fix it. The shower was a bit small, the curtain wraps around you when it gets wet. Plastic shower curtain might be a better fit. Good stay in general, spacious room. Laundry facility would be a great idea since the area has only one commercial laundry.

1 seule cuisine sous équipée pour 12 chambres, (3 couteaux 2 torchons vite trempés 1 essuie main pas de café 1 petite poubelle). Matelas inconfortable et oreiller bcp trop mince, des stores qui n'occultent rien et un peu cassés. Bruit infernal d'une soufflerie sèche mur au sous-sol cause réfection 2e cuisine (inutilisable). Table à manger en plein milieu du couloir à côté des toilettes au sous sol toujours avec le bruit du sèche mur. Odeur de renfermé. 4places parking pour tous. Suite à notre plainte du bruit proposition d'un autre logement. Message reçu à 8h30 pour 1 check out à 10h mais nous étions trop éloignés pour être à l'heure.les chambres du haut sont peut être bien mais les chambres au sous sol sont à éviter absolument. La porte d'entrée est bruyante. Dommage que je ne puisse pas m'être de photos, ça ne mâche pas. Bref établissement à fuir.

What is unique about this property is the absence of hot water. Space is pretty limited in a kitchen, so you have to wait some time before having dinner.

We stayed in 5 hotels in our loop around Iceland. This was by far our worst stay. No parking(fewer spaces than there are rooms) Greeted by a huge pile of garbage at the front steps. Check in was a hassle. Lovely city though. This place is corporate owned and we will avoid them now always.

The steps were very slippery and one of the metal edges was loose. My friend fell down the steps and skinned up her back. They don’t want you to wear your shoes inside, so that makes a dangerous condition. The inside of the room left something to be desired. We found a dirty sock under the bed, the blinds was just a single roller shade no curtains, and it didn’t come all the way down to the bottom due to the window hook. The other guests were not friendly, but I don’t blame the hotel for that.

This property was not clean. I would prefer to pay more for another place in the city to have a clean place to stay. The communication prior to arrival was terrible. I had to call Expedia because the contact information was incorrect. It took two calls before I was given the access code. The directions weren't correct, although once in the building it was straight forward. Will not stay here again.

I really can’t recommend this place. The house was in very poor condition – there was mold on the walls, and it smelled overwhelmingly of detergent and perfume. The air inside was so heavy that I could hardly breathe, and I didn’t sleep at all during the night. My eyes were red and itchy the entire time. The room was tiny, with absolutely nowhere to put clothes – no hooks, no shelves, nothing. It felt very uncomfortable and impractical. The location itself is good, but unfortunately that’s the only positive thing I can say. The overall condition of the house was just really bad :(

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.

I usually don't leave bad reviews but I feel this property misleads customers in the extreme. The place is dark, dingy and run down. The photos are clearly taken with a very wide angle lens and the white balance is whacked up to present a clean, bright interior. This was (by far) the most disappointing accommodation we stayed at during an otherwise fantastic 7 night trip around the loop road. Look elsewhere!!

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.

This was the only place left even after reserving 6 mos in advance. Felt more like a hostel which is fine. But for a family of 4, we would have preferred someplace with more conveniences like parking, quiet from the common areas, larger restroom, and separate room from the bunk bed. Also since no one was on site, felt less welcoming than a traditional hotel. Otherwise it worked out fine. We appreciated the accommodations.

This property was not clean. I would prefer to pay more for another place in the city to have a clean place to stay. The communication prior to arrival was terrible. I had to call Expedia because the contact information was incorrect. It took two calls before I was given the access code. The directions weren't correct, although once in the building it was straight forward. Will not stay here again.

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.

Good location, walkable distance to restaurants and city center. Limited parking could be a problem for late check ins. Door codes were convenient, easy check in and entry. Shared kitchen was fully equipped. Spacious room but there was a stain in the ceiling which could be potentially a leak upstairs, hopefully they will fix it. The shower was a bit small, the curtain wraps around you when it gets wet. Plastic shower curtain might be a better fit. Good stay in general, spacious room. Laundry facility would be a great idea since the area has only one commercial laundry.

I really can’t recommend this place. The house was in very poor condition – there was mold on the walls, and it smelled overwhelmingly of detergent and perfume. The air inside was so heavy that I could hardly breathe, and I didn’t sleep at all during the night. My eyes were red and itchy the entire time. The room was tiny, with absolutely nowhere to put clothes – no hooks, no shelves, nothing. It felt very uncomfortable and impractical. The location itself is good, but unfortunately that’s the only positive thing I can say. The overall condition of the house was just really bad :(

Schöne Behausung, wenn man ein/ zwei Tage in der Stadt verbringen möchte. Die Innenstadt ist fußläufig in weniger als 10 min. zu erreichen. Drumherum gibt es einige Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Eine eigene Küche gibt es auch. Alles da, was man braucht. Wir kommen gern wieder.

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.

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.

The bedding wasn’t partly changed, one of the pillows smelled of so much perfume I had to remove it from the bed and no WiFi , luckily I had Icelandic SIM card so I could hotspot but with foreign card it’s a big nono, not all bad, the house is clean with good kitchen appliances too and semi well placed in town, very good if you have car

Our room smelled of mildew and mold. The floor just outside the bathroom was spongy and had obvious water damage. The whole room seemed a little run down. Not sure how the other rooms were. It was nice having a kitchen to share.
