Location was superb - just a 5mins walk to the main shopping street in Reykjavik. Room was spacious, had a huge TV with all the main streaming apps installed. Shared bathroom was really clean too. Complimentary smoothie was a plus!

Lovely home with great amenities and a very kind, accommodating host that will tell you all the good places to go! It is a little outside the city centre, but that means it is very quite. The bus drops off right next to it, so it's accessible.

Simple self check-in and check-out and exceptional room facilities. The breakfast was in a different building, but the instructions and address were perfectly explained in an email. The room was very spacious and was perfectly situated in the centre of the city, with great views and a large kitchen facility.

The guesthouse is very strategically close both to the city centre and the bus terminal (from which the buses to the airport depart directly, with no need to book for the drop off/ pick up service), but at the same is in a quiet and very green residential area. The room is small (but it was clear from the pictures posted, so no surprises there) but very clean and comfortable. Thorey was a great host and ready to help when I called her before arriving, and left very specific instructions for us regarding our stay. Lovely dog too!
