The good: Great location, as it’s a short walk to the main restaurants and to the boatyard. 
The bad: Low quality linen and mould windows as there was plenty of condensation. No blackout blinds so the room is not dark to sleep
The best: Shower was amazing, the highlight of the place. 
Overall: room ok, but I wouldn’t stay again though

Great location, apartment not so good

Zero service! We travelled together with our 14 months old baby, means that we were reliant on a babybed. Though we had booked the apartment with a babybed, there was no babybed there, when we arrived in the evening. After our complaints, they brought a broken and unusable babybed. We needed to find another accomodation very short-termed to put the tired baby to bed. The owner of Skyaborg apartments charged the full price on our credit cards the day after, he ignored our repeated mails and complaints.
Altogether a very bad experience, no focus on service, but very unfriendly and ignorant. 
Besides, the apartment is located directly at the main street and surrounded by commercial buildings.

Not more than an unfriendly rip-off.

Iceland is expensive. we all know that. accom is expensive always. But when you arrive to a 380 $AUD per night apartment that has rubbish still in the bins/ gunk in the fridge/ crumbs on the bench and couch/ and the one pan to cook with has enough loose teflon to make you wonder whether you want steak with your teflon or teflon with your steak!!...and the bedroom has curtains that don't cover the windows (remember it is middle of summer).... it really doesnt equate to value at the price. On the good side...the shower is excellent, and the space is great. .... so... stay here if you must but dont if you dont really need to!

overpriced/ poor cleanliness

We‘ve stayed in this apartment for one night during our trip along the ring road. The apartment itself is very nice and well equipped. Unfortunately we weren‘t able to use the kitchen equipment because we decided to go out for dinner this night. Nevertheless the apartment was nicely decorated and clean. The only negative point is the view from the apartment. When you look out of the window you only see industrial buildings and none of Iceland’s beautiful landscape. 

We did have some difficulties finding the apartment because google maps navigated us to the other end of the street. As we tried to search for the name instead of the address it was way more accurate. 

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone traveling along the ring road. As it is well equipped it is probably also suitable for longer stays.


Beautiful and cozy apartment

Höfn is a lovely place. The views by the water are fabulous looking at the mountains and glaciers in the distance. There are walks, a supermarket and an off licence. The apartment is fine for an overnight stay. 1 bedroom for the kids and the other bed is in the lounge/kitchen area. Basic cooking facilities (hot plate and microwave - no oven). Clean and reasonable well equipped.  You can see the mountains from the apartment but you are next to factories and some discarded rusting tractors. 

Good place to stop off for a night

Well furnished 1-bed apartment with a second double-bed in the living room and a sofa bed. 
It is kind-of in a small industrial area of Hofn, which is slightly odd, but it wasn't at all noisy when we were there. It's also immediately above a restaurant, with the oven chimneys right beside the windows. Again, not a problem but unexpected.

Only thing to fix: the living room has transparent blinds. Not good for sleeping during the summer when it doesn't get dark...

Good 1-bed apartment

Very spacious, clean, parking, all facilities, pleasant, helpful manager who made us feel welcome. Very reasonable price. Supermarket nearby, good restaurant in the same building. Two very good sized bedrooms, one with a balcony. Modern, tastefully decorated. Would book here again and certainly recommend to others.

Highly recommend...

We stayed here for one night during our island round trip of Iceland. 
When looking for the apartment when driving around Hofn, look for the restaurant Bistro Z as it is located within the same building. 
We saw the waiters in Bistro Z on arrival to get instructions on getting in to the room. The apartment itself was nice. There were 2 bedrooms, one average size, one large, and both were light and well equipped with duvets etc. Very comfy sofa and nice communal dining table for 4. The kitchen, although modern and nicely presented, lacked an oven (though a microwave is provided) and cutlery. Presumably you can go to the restaurant downstairs and ask for cutlery as I think the 2 business are associated. During the evening we ate at a restaurant about a 5 minute walk away (Hafnarbudin - would highly recommend their deep fried hot dogs!!!).
There isn’t much of a view at this property, due to the location being in the centre of a fishing town, but with all the scenery located around Iceland in order to get here, you don’t miss it much!! 
We had a comfortable evening here and would recommend the apartments to people who are staying in Hofn on their trip around Iceland.
