Accommodation with bedrooms and shared bathroom, located in a former bookshop, and offering a magnificent view.
Here's a beautiful place, full of the authenticity we so love to discover on our travels! This bookshop is one of Iceland's oldest stores, run by the same family (for 4 generations) since 1914. As well as buying souvenirs and admiring historic pieces, you now have the opportunity to sleep in one of their guesthouse rooms with shared bathroom. Offering a magnificent view of the outside world, their authentic style and exposed woodwork create a cosy atmosphere.

The rooms are great, clean, everything is ok for a shared accommodation, good breakfast, but as we had to cancel one of our nights there (reluctantly of course, we had no other options), a commercial gesture would have been appreciated (like a 5-10% refund or something...). I know we have to pay according to the cancellation policy but we lost 200€...
So maybe less marketing and more authenticity/humanity for next time ???? I work in tourism and know that business is important but a symbolic gesture would have made our impression of Flateyri and its people very different.
