The room was clean and updated but detached from the main building amongst apartments. There we a lot of loud noises coming from in and outside the building. We had to ask for towels and didn’t get any other amenities besides toilet paper

Nice guest house. They were remodeling and the common kitchen was unavailable, we luckily didn't need it and it smelled dusty because of the construction. The room was clean and the air inside was fresh. The breakfast was fairly good but the staff member was very unpleasant and said that the breakfast started at 7:30 despite the sign in the bedroom saying 7:00. We had to leave at 7:30 so that wasn't super convenient.

I didn't realise how close it is to THE landmark Hallsgrimkirkje or the BSI Bus Station (for airport transfers)! Reykjavik isn't big so most things are easily walkable (in decent weather) and being amidst residential properties, lots of electric scooters. The room was basic with slightly awkward window mechanism but clean, warm & comfortable. The door on it's swinging hinge was a bit violent on closing but you can't lock yourself out. Tip for the shower curtain in shared bathroom, it needs to be longer or install a bifold door so the floor remains drier......... Stairs are also a bit narrow with luggage with reception in the basement. Breakfast is simple "continental" style but worthwhile before a long day or touring!!

TERRIBLE STAY
Our stay was the most terrible stay we had. We have to pick up the key from one building then we have to walk in the cold to look for the building. There were no towels in the room. We went back again to get towels. Property is very dirty. Neighborhood is sketchy and very expensive for the terrible placw. Hotels.com should took this off from your list. They are misleading and lied. It says free self parking then it says ISK 1500 FOR PARKING , we found no free parking. We found parking at church nearby but we have to walk very far in the cold. There was pubic hair in the sink and the bathroom light will turn off itself.

Clean and comfortable room. Self check in was easy. It would have been nice to have access to milk to make tea and coffee in the evening. Bread at breakfast was delicious. Close to city centre shops and restaurants.

Great place for a good nights sleep
These are simple and slightly small accommodations, but for the price it was well worth it. Clean and comfortable, with a good breakfast and laundry service for 15 euros. This is not a hotel, and the price reflects that. If you want a private bathroom and have their amenities like an elevator, look elsewhere. But if you want a clean and comfortable bed at a good price, this is a great place.

Excellent Location, Excellent Service
The service was excellent. Chris was amazing, he catered to my every need including helping me with booking excursions. The location of this place is excellent, right in the middle of town. I was able to walk most places and the bus stop is very close as well. What seperates this property from good to excellent was that the bed wasn't the most comfortable, it made my back ache. My room was right near the street so you could hear everything outside the window. In addition, I never seen anyone come clean or empty the trash in the shared bathroom during my stay. Overall decent experience and I would stay here again.
