y la relación calidad - precio
- Tatiana (9/5): - Nice apartments in the city center. They have everything you need for preparing food, and a supermarket open until 22:00 is just nearby. The host is very friendly. You can also leave your luggage before check-in or after check-out. The mattresses were too soft for our liking, and the floor could have been a bit cleaner. There was no shampoo provided.

- Victor (10/5): -
- Wai Yin (9/5):  - 位於市中心,鄰近不同車站,便於參加一日團及往返機場;附近亦有便利店、超市、精品店及食肆,生活機能方便。 最初入住檢查時,上一手使用微波爐及廚具後沒有清潔徹底,導致需自行清理,衛生觀感上較差。若轉交下一批住客使用時有檢查清楚,這個問題應該發現及避免。
另外,住宿點沒有升降機,若住較高樓層需提着行李走樓梯。
- Massimiliano (8/5): - Appartamento piccolo ma dotato di tutto il necessario in posizione centrale, comodo il self check in. Letto non particolarmente comodo si affondava.

- ThisOldBroadAbroad (10/5): Just lovely - The beds so comfy! A clean place had everything I needed. Everything was fabulous I could have used a mat in the shower it got very slippery w/o anything to hold onto especially getting out but made do. I would still stay again.

- Alvaro (8/5): -
- Angelo (10/5): -
- Martina (9/5): Ottimo - Ottima struttura a due minuti a piedi dal centro.
Letto comodo, netflix è dotata di tutto il necessario. Sarebbe necessaria una macchinetta del caffè con capsule (ad oggi c’è solo quella del caffè americano)

- _Ania_ (9/5): Godne polecenia! - Znakomita lokalizacja, bardzo komfortowe mieszkanie, ciepło, cicho, czysto. Świetne miejsce na zwiedzanie Rejkiaviku i okolic.
- Belinda (6/5): - Location Bed was not great. A lot of stairs to drag bags up
- Olivia (6/5): Lovely flat but unfortunately felt unsafe due to next door neighbours - Was a really clean and tidy flat, and (in theory) in a great location - very close to the heart of Reykjavík and lots of parking nearby. The location - next to a homeless shelter/ something similar. Mostly had no issues but one resident did come across the street and throw stuff at our car when we came back from a northern lights trip. Wouldn’t recommend staying here as a group of female travellers.
- Vasyl (10/5): Продумано всі деталі -
- Megan Vivian (10/5): Best spot in the city!!! - They were so helpful and kind! They were able to easily fix a mistake I made in booking in just a few minutes. It was a wonderful appt, right in the middle of everything. Nothing! Love it all!
- Ondřej (8/5): - Nice location (very close to Hallgrimkirkja church)
Washing machine and dryer on ground floor
Private kitchen and fridge in the studio Shower was leaking water on the ground a little bit
- Katie (10/5): 还不错,只是天气不好没看到北极光。 - 卫生、干净、地理位置很满意,唯一遗憾的是没有洗头膏,只有一种洗澡的液体香皂。没有停车位,不过附近有公用停车场,需付费。 加洗头精吧。
- Iris (9/5): Super fijn! - Mooie studio, je kunt er koken, wat fijn is! Fijne badkamer en prima bedden. Mooie locatie dichtbij het centrum. Er is een wasmachine wat erg fijn is! Ook leuk dat er al wat olie, kruiden etc stond. Fijne prijs/kwaliteit verhouding en je kunt dichtbij parkeren! De enige kleine minpuntjes, de douche stonk soms naar stilstaand water door een open doucheafvoetputje en er was geen echte goede ventilatie. De ramen konden wel open dus dat was hiermee op te lossen

- Mizuki (10/5): -
- Sandra (7/5): -
- Lenny (10/5): - De locatie was top. Dichtbij het centrum en de busstop voor alle activiteiten.
- Shira (10/5): מושלם. - מרכזי, נוח, נקי, מיטה נוחה, מטבח מאובזר. היה ממש טוב הזרם במקלחת לא מאוד חזק. בתור מישהי עם שיער ארוך זה לא היה מאוד נוח. חוץ מזה היה מושלם.
- N (6/5): Overpriced for the size of room - The room was located right in the heart of city. Very well located. However, the room and bathroom were too small. Even bathroom amenities werent enough. Highly priced. I am sure we could have found a better room at the same price someplace else. Not worth it Size of room and bathroom and minimal amenities.
- Viking (10/5): - Nära till allt, gott om restauranger och sevärdheter.
- Lorenzo (8/5): -
- Joshua (10/5): - Clean comfortable and well laid out room in a good oocation
- Charlene (8/5): - Loved staying at Alfred's studios - 15 minute walk to the 14 bus stop for the flybus and tours; and 2 blocks from all the shops and restaurants.
My tall husband was very happy with the bed lengths, there was everything we needed to cook breakfast.
One thing to note - no elevator and the stairs are steep, somewhat narrow and winding so try to get a lower floor room if you bring luggage.
- Lorie (9/5): Location worked for our purposes. Easy check in and out. - Location and check-in instructions
- Anton (6/5): - Good location overall, we were able to park nearby. We had a miscommunication on the twin/double bed expectation, and the manager went above and beyond to get our beds redone very late in the evening, was very polite as well. The room was much smaller than we expected from the pictures, although everything was as on the pictures, it felt crammed. The ventilation was barely enough, not able to open the windows fully. Noise from the street.
- B737NGDriver (6/5): Good location - Excellent and timely communication with the host allowed for a quick and easy online check-in and key code entry. Great location - just a short walk to the main downtown strip Laugavegur. Great little kitchenette has everything you'd need if you're planning on doing your own catering - there are also washers/dryers available. The host left excellent travel/local information on the main table in the suite. Comfortable bed. Parking is a challenge. Be sure to have to Parka app in use to make life easier. The staircase up to the front door and then up to the 3rd and 4th floor is tiny and steep - not good for those with mobility issues and large luggage. There is no elevator. The tiny bathroom puts the "C" in "WC". The neighbourhood, being full of other apartments and next door to a hostel, can be active and noisy in the evening.
- Lesley Maria (10/5): - Wonderful little apartment in super location close to everything 🤗 we even walked the easy 20 minutes from the main bus station, and bus stop 14 for the airport bus was only 5 mins away. Laundry room was very useful too 👍 AND we had two pillows each!! 😂 would absolutely choose again next time we're in Reykjavik x Very very minor but hard not to make the floor really wet with only a shower curtain
- Elena (8/5): -
- reyniringi (1/5): - Very outdated and frankly I am not sure it meets Icelandic health codes and regulation.
- Gong (10/5): -
- Jane (10/5): Sweet little Iceland apt- love it! - The place is very comfortable, safe and well cared for. It is exceptionally clean. The staff is super kind and thoughtful. You get a little kitchenette and a balcony. It was close to the bus stop #14 so it was an easy bus transfer from the airport. Which is important because Taxis are way too expensive!!!
Right in town not far from the cool church and the main town fun stuff. Also close the water. Beds were very comfortable. We would stay here for sure next time. It’s like your own little Iceland Apt.
- Lynnea (9/5): -
- Bjørn (7/5): - Super beliggenher, nær sentral gågate, bakeri, dagligvarehandel, nær havet, nær busser. Sovesofa var ikke behagelig. koketopp var veldig treg å varme opp.
- Richard (9/5): Good apartment in an excellent location. - Room was in an excellent location in the heart of Reykjavik. Easy walk to restaurants, musuems and shopping. It was also hand to have access to a washing machine Room was a bit on the small side but it met our needs.
- Si (9/5): -
- Elizabeth (8/5): -

- Andreea.elf (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (10/5): - Really enjoyed our stay at Alfred's Studios. A short walk to the bay, lots of dining options around, and with two teenagers it was great to have more than a hotel room. The communication with the staff was excellent.

- Nicolle (10/5): - Great communication. I loved the room. I got, kitchen was wonderful. TV worked well, fairly quiet, I had the top floor, which was great! Easy to get in with the code, I really enjoyed this place.
- James (8/5): - Great location
- Wayne Noel (8/5): - apartment is in a nice area close to the main part of the city.
The access to the busing system was very easy and convenient. We will definitely stay there again and finally the weather was also excellent.
- Rán (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robert (9/5): We would definitely stay here again. - Very clean, conveniently located within a few blocks of most attractions we were interested in. Difficult to get luggage up and down narrow stairway. Definitely not accessible to anyone with any mobility issues.
- Kathleen (9/5): Great studio in downtown area - This studio was clean and convenient. The room was large and comfortable with everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. It was quiet and close to bus stops and attractions in the downtown area. The owner communicated information quickly and accurately and was very responsive to our needs. Everything was good

- Prameel (7/5): Good -
- Kristin (10/5): Location, views of ocean, & comfortable - Homie. Alfred was easy to reach and super kind.
- Georg (5/5): Misleading information on parking - Both building and rooms are nice and clean, bed was comfy The description states that "free parking is available on the street", which we feel is rather misleading. For starters, in the area around the apartment one has to pay for parking, and even then there's barely any spots available. A guide received by the host states one could park further away from the center, where parking is free, and just walk here, but as a tourist I have no idea if e.g. I can just park in an unmarked spot or before a house, so this isn't exactly a good option. Also, luggage.
It boils down to this: we were *specifically* looking for a place with parking because we didn't want to have to deal with any of this, and we had a flight to catch. Because of the misleading information we had to waste time and had trouble with our schedule, so sadly the rating has to reflect this.
