We enjoyed our stay at this apartment. The location is perfect close a block and a half from the main shopping street with a grocery store, shops and restaurants. The parking was easy for two nights we needed to park our rental. The blackout curtains worked great, shower was good with a personal shower option and the kitchen stocked adequately. We received the check in email 2 days before check in and the check in was easy. Only issues were the stairs down to the front door had no railing and for two older people we took them slow, especially with luggage. The only other minor issue is we wished a bath mat would have been provided.

I stayed here several nights. At first I stay at the first floor room. It has bad air convection. The shower curtain is stinky. And then I’m allowed to move to the room at the second floor. There is no toilet paper in the room. I called the host, he said he will ask the room service to put the toilet paper but I never receive. The door lock is a bit weird. I was locked out of my room and have to call the host to let him reset my room lock. No matter which floor I stay, the soundproof is really bad. I can hear people walk by my door or make noise in the upstairs room, which made me nervous throughout the whole time I stay in the room. It was a very bad impression to stay there.

This was a lovely place to stay! It is so close to so many of the sights of Reykjavik. It has a fridge, stove, oven, large closet and private bathroom. All of these made my stay cost effective and lovely! The room was clean and well organized when I arrived. You also have access to on site laundry, which after a rainy day exploring the peninsula, I was happy to have!

Convenient location in a quiet neighborhood. Very close to the shopping areas. Nice little balcony outside the bedroom door. The apartment was properly equipped and arranged in a manner to make it open and roomy. We certainly enjoyed our stay there.

King bed is actually two doubles pushed together. Apartment was clean and easy to access. Checkin time is 3pm and wont accommodate earlier, bathtub and shower kind of strange, but nice. Overall would stay again except walls are thin so bring headphones/earplugs.

Terrible! Avoid!
Very upsetting and frustrating stay at this hotel. I booked this trip for my husband birthday. Unfortunately we did not sleep properly. I booked this accommodation for a 4 night stay. On the 1st night, we were being woken up by the people upstairs about 1am. They stayed up till 4am and we thought that that is over. But then we hear them snored. We then have to wake up at 7am for our day trip. We hoped that it was just one night but then it happened again. On the 2nd night, the people came back earlier and again woke us up at 1am. After an hour, it went quiet. Then their friend came and knock on the door. After several knocks, he walked outside the building and had a pee on the pavement. Then he made a phone call and we can hear the phone upstairs vibrating. At this time, I phone Hotel.com that I wish to cancel the rest of the 2 nights but was told that they will contact the owner. I then booked another hotel straight away because we couldn't stand another 2 nights not sleep. Fast forward 1 week, the owner reject our cancellation and we did not get our money back. Neither did Hotel.com compensate us. I think the accommodation is not fit for letting people stay because the floors were so thin that we can hear the snoring and mobile vibrating. Absolutely crazy! I think hotel.com need to take responsibility that this apartment is not suitable on their website.

Be very careful of the bedding arrangement.
The bedding configuration was deceptive and misleading. The description on the booking says 2 twin beds whereas in fact it's only one twin bed. For four adults, this is totally inadequate. Management where pathetic and wouldn't take responsibility of their incompetence when they reluctantly phoned back. I would never recommend this group to anyone. Seek clarification on the actual bedding configuration.

The benefit of this property is it proximity to transportation, food and some walkable historic sites. We were in the top floor apt with carpets. Carpet smelled. Bathroom needed some TLC especially toilet. Refrigerator smelled. I had to clean it; maybe it was closed and unplugged before we got there. I emailed property manager on our day #1 about some concerns, I am yet to receive a repl and my 7 days stay has long ended.. USA phone could not make calls in Iceland.

Our Stay at this place...
The apartment was centrally located in the heart of Reykjavík but was on a quite street so noise was not a factor. Ideal location made for an easy walk to restaurants, boutique shops and museums. Facility was clean and bed was comfortable. The manager of the place was efficient and prompt in her communication whenever we reached out to her if not too friendly.

This property is close to good restaurants and shops. Parking on the street was actually easy to find and check in and check out were super easy too. Bed in the bedroom is comfortable. The sofa had some stains. The big problem was the smell in the kitchen and bathroom. Very strong garlic and funky smell that was overwhelming to the point that the person sleeping on the sofa bed had a hard time sleeping. If this apartment was cleaned up, it would be nice.
