I loved the mirrors on the hallway walls, they made it look very spacious and bright, especially in combination withe the glass wall separating the kitchen on the 2nd floor. The location is very close to downtown Reykjavik and the BSI station, and even has a private parking lot (which I didn't need this time but it would've been very useful if I had a car).
