Our favorite city among all the others! Location is Great & they have a private parking space for guests. We walked all around on our two nights stay here. This apartment is close to everywhere so its really convenient! Our room has a little balcony which is totally unexpected (nice!!). We also have a full small kitchen area with stools and things we can use. No stove but it has a microwave and a fridge. The tv has Netflix as well! Beds are comfortable & room is big enough and cosy. Check in and out super breeze, just a pincode for all doors.

Natallia Belarus

Beds very comfy! Easy instructions, perfect for a quick place to shower and sleep.

Katharine United States of America

The place was super easy to get in and out of, everything was a key pad so we didn’t have to worry about arriving early. The room was like a small studio apartment and was SUPER close to shops and food. Best location of anywhere I stayed in Iceland. I absolutely loved it.

Sara United States of America

Check in was a breeze using a code. The apartment was a good size for an overnight. We loved the location in the heart of the city.

Elizabeth United States of America

We did not see any staff and there is a self check in. The room was quite small but we knew that when we booked. The building has been renovated recently and presents well.

Michael Canada

There was no staff on site. You only use keypad for access to building and room. Very good location. Breakfast was not offered. Room was small, but clean. Offered Netfix! I feel we received a good value for what we spent
