Lets start with the bad, the bad is we stayed at 401 and there is no elevator so I had to carry our luggage all the way up to 4th floor. When we got to the room, took a shower and drain clogged right away which means they did not clean the drain down below properly. They were very attentive and very good at communicating so they took care and sent someone right away but unfortunately we could not let them in because we were so tired from our flight. The pros is everything is walkable here. If you take tours, the main bus stops are walkable. Shops and restaurants all over. They also provided kitchen items and toileties and was very generous amount which we like. They also respond very quickly even days before our check in. Overall, I would recommend this for the service and value.

Ok room
After staying in a camper for 6 days we were excited to have our own bathroom and bed. The place was clean but the electricity was not on when we got there. Also the bathroom shower gets water all over the bathroom it doesn’t quite drain correctly. The bed was also two twins pushed together not the queen we thought it was. The parking was also deceiving because it said free parking but that’s only with certain units. We had to park about a 10 min walk for the free parking. The location was fantastic and the staff did respond quickly to any questions.

The hotel was fine. We unfortunately had the top floor. Best views but tricky humping your luggage up the winding stairs. Never saw anyone working there. Check in and out was easy. Thankfully through emails we were able to get our room 2 hours earlier. Free parking is pretty much not happening unless you get lucky or rent the 4 person room. If you can get by without a car it will be less stressful in the city.There is a nail spa on the ground floor of this building. Had a great massage there!!

Good apartment in a good location
Great location on the main restaurant and shopping street in Reykjavik. Close to the action without being disturbed by it. The studio apartment was very clean and well equipped.

The location was excellent for exploring downtown Reykjavik, the apartment was cosy, clean and modern. The kitchen was well stocked and was perfect for our trip. The shower was always piping hot, and the bed was super comfy. Would definitely stay here again.

The staff are on-hand via email. They informed us of bad weather conditions to keep us safe during our stay, and had provided a booklet of good places to buy groceries, where to eat etc. The apartment is clean and presentable. A well-stocked kitchen with all the utensils you need to cook. Warm beds, seating area, TV with Netflix for the evenings, hot shower. Very good location in one of the main shopping areas but not overly noisy. Would recommend to others.
