The guesthouse was lovely. The room was spacious and the location perfect-walkable to shops, restaurants and museums. Our host was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely return.
Deborah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice little place
It was very nice to have our own room and bathroom away from the main house. It made it so we could come and go as we pleased which was very important for us to see the Northern lights. There is daily housekeeping so we never had to worry about things getting very dirty. Would definitely go back here if I come back to Iceland.
Alyssa, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would stay here again! Super clean, quiet, peaceful. Slept like a baby. Right near the main downtown area and near a beautiful park if you like to go for walks or exercise.
Angelica, 3-night trip

Our room was nice and clean with a convenient in room bathroom with a great shower. The location is perfect for walking to all the major restaurant and shopping areas.

Nice stay!
The host was very kind and helped us find our room upon arrival. Cleaning service was very nice and asked everyday of we needed anything and always gave us new towels, more soap, etc. The room had heating, which was good since we were there in winter :) It was a reasonable price in Reykjavik for a room. No breakfast, normal sized hotel room containing a queen sized bed, a small desk and chair, water boiler and tea bags + creamer, sugar, etc. The house itself seemed quite large and looked a bit like a white fortress on the outside :) Our room was for two people and was reached from the side of the house. The floors got dirty after a few days of staying there, with us moving in and out everyday xD Otherwise it was a cozy stay! P.S. It is normal that the warm water smells sulphuric in Iceland.

Cozy room in convenient location
Great location, close to bus terminal and downtown (there is a bit of a slope in the surrounding neighborhood if that is a concern for anyone), and also in a quiet neighborhood. There is a little bit of wear and tear from previous travelers, which is completely understandable. Overall, very comfortable and would definitely come back. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time in Reykjavik and our host at this property was so communicative! Great location very close to the main town and church but out enough that it was easy to find parking. Lots of food options less than 10 minutes away!
