Clean good location
This a great and affordable place to stay in Reykjavik. The place was very clean and comfortable, and in a perfect location. However, I do think it is somewhat unethical to fail mention that guests are staying beneath an apartment building, and residents will regularly walk through unannounced to do their laundry. It made for an unsettling experience, which we eventually eased into once we got our heads around the situation. For this reason it is worth noting there is not a lot of privacy and it is a bit noisy in the evenings. We only stayed two nights which was fine. I don’t think I could stay a week here though.

This was not the apartment and the title is misleading. This is an En-suite BASEMENT ROOM. Shared not so clean hallway and tiny kitchenet. It's lucky that Reykjavik is a fairly safe place, but had I known this is not a self containt apartment- I would not have stayed here. On the positive side the room was clean and it is in a very good location.

The location is excellent. The host is wonderful. The place should need to be painted and renovated. There is no complimentary parking.

It’s in a perfect location for staying in downtown Reykjavik. Everything you need is within walking distance. A bonus was that we were able to find a free parking spot by the church. The only negative was how shockingly warm it was in the room. When we arrived the windows were open and we had to leave them open the entire time.

Not what we expected
Sadly, although the manager was communicative and friendly, the apartment is not what is appears in the picture. It is a basement room in a house with many people. Noisy and very small. No amenities besides small bathroom. It was very sad. We had to spend our own extra money to stay at a hotel due to the policy of no refunds. Please change this policy to be more friendly!!

It was not clear that it was in the basement or that there was a shred hallway with others that wanted to do laundry.

The room is in the basement, with the entrance from a back garden. Rhebfront door to the property does not lock, so anybody can come inside. The garden is really untidy with loads of old and rusty things. There is also a laundry room which is used by other dwellers all day long, including during the night - extremely loud! The location is excellent tho 👌.

great location
This is a basement apartment in an older home, shared with the owner and other renters. The facilities are rustic, small, but adequate. It is a good value.

The property is on one of the main streets in the city and not far from the water. It is small like described. The check in process is very simple and I had no issues. I found the place to be clean. I would stay again

Was exactly what I needed for a few days, as I was delayed getting back to the US. It was a very small place in the basement of an apartment building. It was very clean. other tenants in the apartment would come down and use the laundry, so I kept my door closed. The kitchen is not connected to the room, but outside in the hallway, which was not a big deal. It was very noisy my first night there, very late, after midnight, there was a man in the apt above me yelling or just maybe talking very loud, banging things. But like I said for the price, you couldn't beat it. It was close to everything, and in a safe area.

As far as the cleanliness, the property was very tidy, but there was an unfortunate, and strong, cigarette smell the entire time.

Beschreibung entsprach Nicht dem Objekt
Wir haben für zwei Nächte gebucht. Rauchen war nicht erlaubt, für uns mit einer der Gründe, weshalb wir gebucht haben. In der Wohnung wurde jedoch definitiv geraucht. Der Vermieter zeigte sich sehr uneinsichtig, für uns war es ein NoGo. Die zweite Nacht haben wir abgebrochen, da zusätzlich die Lautstärke der oben Etage untragbar war. Offenbar gab es einen Streit. Wir haben dann die restlichen vier Stunden im Auto geschlafen. Außerdem war die Wohnung im Keller durch die ständig jemand gelaufen ist, um in den Waschkeller zu gelange Insgesamt sehr enttäuschend.

Great location
Stayed here for 5 nights while exploring nearby sights. This tiny basement apartment is in a great and convenient location in the city center. It is on a street that I would call the Bourbon Street of Reykjavik, although a lot quieter, lower-key, and civilized. Was delightfully surprised how bustling the nightlife was, especially coming from the constant BS that is going on in the States with half the population not wanting to get vaccinated. How sad. Ended up going out one night while staying in this accommodation and enjoyed people-watching the locals. Only slept and showered in this apartment, which is all we needed. Iceland’s best bakery steps nearby. Good for the unreasonable Iceland accommodation prices.
