Guest Reviews
- Jacqueline (5/5): Once we got access to the property it was fairly satisfactory. - Well located, spacious, warm, good blackout curtains. Problem with access initially, but the operator did their best to solve the problem and gave us late checkout which was appreciated.
No soap in the dispenser for the shower, oven tray dirty. Kitchen could do with a bit of an update. Very little hanging space/hangers for clothes.
- Kacey (10/5): An amazing stay!!! - Cozy and comfortable!!! Had everything we needed and is at a very quiet yet convenient zone, close to cheap supermarket Bonus. Luggage storage is also extremely convenient, and we’re able to retrieve towels from laundry when needed. Felt unsafe due to lack of a door lock from the inside. Anyone could’ve entered the apartment with a passcode. The electric stove was also confusing to operate so we didn’t use it our entire stay.
- Vincent (9/5): - Très bien situé, en plein centre ville, facilité pour se garer dans un parking P3 (gratuit le WE) Voisin du dessus bruyant
- Bennie (8/5): -
- Alice (10/5): Meraviglioso, lo consiglio! - Tutto perfetto! Posizione comoda, appartamento pulitissimo, spazioso, accogliente!
- alexandre (9/5): Excellent séjour. logement à conseiller - La situation
Le calme
La propreté
Rapport qualité prix Rien
- Raymaekers (7/5): Très bien situé mais pas adapté PMR - Emplacement idéal près de l’église et rue commerçante. Bel appartement. Très bonne literie Lors de ma réservation il est indiqué appartement au rez de chaussée, alors qu’en réalité il était au 2eme étage sans ascenseur ( je suis une personne à mobilité réduite, donc c’est hyper important)
Il est également dit cuisine avec ustensiles bien équipées, mais il n’y avait pas vraiment de quoi faire son repas
Les codes d’accès à l’appartement ne fonctionnaient pas, il a fallu appeler le propriétaire ( qui n’est pas sur place, boîte à codes)
- jose antonio (6/5): - Cerca del centro, zona comercial y de tiendas En el mensaje no nos llegaron los códigos para las habitaciones. En una primera llamada no nos atendió el propietario. Tardamos en contactar. No tiene parking a pesar de que en la reserva ponía que había. Lavavajillas por recoger y con los botones de los programas rotos (apartamento 2). Pocos enseres de cocina.
- Fabrizio (7/5): - Posizione ottima! Arredamento datato... direi da cambiare. Illuminazione insufficiente. Le ludelka cucinano guaste e le altre molto deboli.
- Jody (9/5): - Nice apartment and great location
- Rachel (9/5): Cute place to stay in Reykjavik - Great location and a really well designed flat. It has everything we needed and s lovely outlook onto some colourful houses. Self check in was easy. Found free parking in a residential street the other side of the big church. The shower curtain was a bit too short which meant that some water escaped onto the bathroom floor.
- Dona Englezaki (10/5): -
- LUCA (8/5): - La posizione vicina al centro e possibilità di parcheggio gratuito nelle vicinanze del piazzale della chiesa. La stanza aveva poche luci funzionanti e l'interruttore della ventola del bagno era guasta.
- Sigurdsson (10/5): -
- Harshit (7/5): Overall it was a good stay and liked the place. - Property was good and was very central to most of the places. The staff was rude.
- Andreas (10/5): -
- LUCA (10/5): - Posizione ottima e possibilità anche se non vicinissima di parcheggiare l'auto in zona libera
- Jason (10/5): I know I will be back!! - It made us feel like we had our own home here in Iceland.!!!! Nothing
- Man Ching (10/5): Great location, great vibe, would totally come back again! - The instructions from the host was really clear. Got in easily. None. I like everything about this apartment.
- Elizabeth (9/5): A great flat in central Reykjavik - The location is fab, easy walking distance to both the port and Rainbow Street, also the Bonus supermarket, a great place to buy all your food supplies. The flat itself is a nice size, we booked the ground floor apartment, which had a studio space with an extra large double bed, sofa, tv with Netflix, YouTube etc, coffee table, clothes rail, and then a second kitchen area with a small dining table , cooker, kettle, sink, crockery…the bathroom leads off the kitchen area and has a shower and sink. The temperature of the flat was beautiful, perfectly warm throughout. The flat was spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable - it has a nice firm mattress, was great for my back after lots of walking. Towels and toiletries all provided. All in all it was set up for a very comfortable stay, oh and also there is a washer dryer with detergent included in a little communal room adjacent to the flat. We thought it was great value for money overall, and generally had an enjoyable stay, however, just a couple of minor improvements could be added to make it even better… There was no saucepan in the kitchen and we discovered this after doing a fairly big supermarket shop…there is no microwave, and there is no draining board to stack dishes after you have washed them. The flat could probably do with just a few more utensils in the kitchen. The kitchen drawers are tricky to open as they are positioned tightly between the wall and the oven.
Also, the lighting is quite low in the living room and kitchen…there are spotlights overhead and reading lamps next to the bed, however, maybe a larger lamp or 2 would make the place brighter during the evenings. These are all small things, but just felt the need to raise them. Overall, a great place to stay in central Reykjavik, and would recommend and also stay here again.

- ayoung (10/5): -
- Jacob (8/5): - Location in the center. We heard noises from the neighbors. Lack of sufficient dinnerware.
- Lucia (8/5): -
- Akop (1/5): - Location Dirty. Not enough towels.
- Aga Dubiel (9/5): -
- ALESSANDRO (9/5): -
- Elena (9/5): Il proprietario è stato molto molto gentile e disponibile 24/7 - La vicinanza al centro era il top Un po’ di sporcizia
- YUJIN (4/5): -
- Tihana (10/5): - Everything was perfect! If I had to point out to just one small detail - the hair dryer was blowing only cold air.
- Karl (6/5): Preis Leistungsverhältnis stimmt - Zentrale Lage - Duschmittel war leer
- Apartment ist sehr hellhörig
- Eingangstür klemmt
- Siobhan (10/5): - Great location, comfortable and had all the amenities you needed. Shower could have been more powerful and the temperature of the water wasn't hot enough. Would prefer to have a shower mat for when stepping out of the shower as the floor was very slippy.
- Shane (1/5): Uncomfy - Good location. Dirty bed and bathroom.
- Davina (9/5): Really recommend. - Really brilliant apartment in a great location. Perfect for visiting Reykjavík.
Close to bus stop 12, bars and shops. Nothing
- Hsiao Chun (8/5): -
- Beate (5/5): Wegen der zugesagten Badewanne waren wir enttäuscht. - Super zentrale, aber ruhige Lage. Die versprochene Badewanne war nicht nutzbar, weil der Ablauf nicht verschliessbar war. Der Stopper hat gefehlt. Der Gastgeber hat zwar auf die email sofort reagiert, es ist aber nichts passiert.
- Martina (10/5): -
- Heather (10/5): - Great location close to everything
- Matias (9/5): Excelent choice for a couple of days in Reikjavik - The location was perfect, close to everything you may want to visit in the city center.
As the buidling itself is not on the front of the property, it is very quiet. Though we were only staying for one night, the apartment had everything you may need for a couple of days without problem. Nothing was wrong.
- Alon (10/5): היה מדהים, מומלץ מאוד@ - מקום נקי, נעים, מיקום מעולה, מארחים מדהימים, חוויה מעולה
- Fernando (2/5): Mala atención -
- Joey (9/5): -
- Herbert (10/5): -
- Jaime (9/5): -
- Deborah (8/5): -
- Roman (3/5): - Die Lage, die Wohnung war sehr groß. Im Bad stinkt es, das Fenster musste 24/7 offen bleiben.
Das Bad war dreckig, Haare lagen rum, die Scheibe der Duschwand und der Spiegel dreckig. Der Duschvorhang vergilbt.
Es ist laut und sehr hellhörig im Haus
Es heißt zwar nicht Raucher Wohnung, allerdings hat das ganze Treppenhaus nach Zigaretten gerochen und die Wohnung ebenfalls.
Für das Geld würde ich lieber wo anders hingehen.
Hatten Probleme mit dem Zimmer und ein anderes erhalten, vielen Dank dafür und die nette Mitarbeiterin am Telefon. Der Manager persönlich war weniger freundlich und sichtlich genervt. Hat uns abgesprochen, dass es nach raucht stinken würde - dabei hat er selbst geraucht...
- Odin (8/5): -
- Daniel (8/5): - Fantastic location and very good facilities. A few things like flickering light bulbs, and exposed wires, but we spent most of the time out and about, so hardly noticed it.
- Yannick (8/5): Très bien - Emplacement très bien/ lit rien confortable Check out trop tôt
- Neil (9/5): Loved it, will return. - Good location, very cosy and warm, good bathroom. Close to all the main areas of Reykjavik. Bus stops nearby and a Bonus supermarket/food shop about a 3 minute walk away. I could hear the neighbours below me quite loud when they arrived. I didn't realise the room was empty until it wasn't any more.
- Helen (4/5): zu teuer für das was geboten wird - Zentrale Lage direkt im Stadtzentrum Zimmer Nr. 2: Geschirrspüler war nicht ausgeräumt. Kühlschranktür war nicht korrekt montiert und liess sich nur schwer öffnen. Fenster im Wohnbereich lässt sich nicht schliessen, kalte Luft strömt dadurch konstant ein, genau dort wo das Sofa steht. Wir mussten den ganzen Wohnbereich umgestalten (Sofa und Esstisch verschieben). Das WLAN war sehr langsam. Die Zimmertür lässt sich nur mit Gewalt schliessen (und damit verbunden nur mit viel Lärm).
- Nataliia (1/5): НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ !!!! Не прибирають апартаменти - Це було жахливо . Я не рекомендую нікому цих апартаментів. Брудно . Не прибрано . Ми заселилися в дуже брудні апартаменти , які ніхто не прибрав після попередніх людей . Ми відкрили двері в апартаменти і були в шоці:
В квартирі все розкидано, брудна постіль , рушники на підлозі , сміття на кухні, чуже волосся і використані засоби гігієни в ванній кімнаті - все це залишилось після попереднього заселення і клінінгу там не було .
Ми приїхали близко першої ночі , відповідно ніхто не відповів на наш дзвінок .
Це було жахливо бридко там спати , розуміючи що хтось вже на тому спав. Ми не могли помитись , оскільки не мали чистих рушників.
Ми надіслали власникам фото і відео підтвердження проте нам відповіли лише в обід та вибачились . Мовляв, що забули прибрати апартаменти вчора . Пообіцяли нам компенсувати вартість проживання , досить довгий час йшли на контакт. Але минуло вже більше місяця , а кошти так і не повернули . Власник перестав виходити на звʼязок .
Я дуже довгий час не писала відгук, думаючи , що власники дійсно шкодують і хочуть компенсувати нам всі незручності . Але , нажаль , це не так.
Тому щиро не рекомендую цих апартаментів .
Фото додаю, відео нажаль тут не має змоги додати , але повірте, що за всю мою історію подорожей , це найгірше що зі мною трапилось . Це дуже гидко було

- Malaurie (8/5): Très bon séjour, appartement bien équipés et propre - Accès grâce a des codes, très pratique
Cuisine simple et efficace

- Seraphina (8/5): - Location was great
- De Giambattista (8/5): -
- Bellu (3/5): - Carino come appartamento Pulizia scarsa,frigo sporco,freddo,quando siamo arrivati c erano tutte e due le finestre aperte,è come se ci fosse stato qualcuno prima del nostro arrivo,il letto era sgualcito,peccato perché la posizione era buona e anche carino come appartamento
- Shirley (7/5): - The location was great and it was nice and quiet. The front door handle fell off and some of the lights didn’t work.
- roberto (9/5): buen departamento, buena ubicacion, falta un poco de mantenimiento en la cocina - buena ubicacion y confortable necesitan mantenimiento los muebles de la cocina
- Siyuan (2/5): 不推荐 - wifi是坏的,无法使用。淋浴也是坏的。有问题联系工作人员一晚上都没回复。
- Natalia (8/5): -
- Victor (7/5): Recomendo! - Localização é boa! Bem equipado, tem tudo que precisa para passar vários dias! Chuveiro ótimo, espaçoso, amplo! Não ter a localização no google maps, e achamos a iluminação muito pouca! Todas luzes são amareladas, e é muito escuro internamente.
- Orsolya (6/5): - Jó elhelyezkedés, kaptunk kávét.
Kóddal nyílt az ajtó, így nem kellett kulcsot, kártyát vinni magunkkal. Hideg volt a lakásban, melegvíz sem volt megfelelő.
Elég sötét volt a lakás.
Érkezéskor használt zoknit és törölközőt találtunk.
Zuhanyzófüggöny elég csúnya volt, làtszottak a penészesedés jelei és a tusolófej váltófeje le volt törve, így a víz csak a felső tusolófejből tudott jönni.
- AntonioVisone (8/5): - La posizione Ingresso con divano letto,un po' troppo stretti
- Ebbe Kaad (9/5): - Lejligheden ligger meget centralt i forhold til at komme rundt i Reykjavik Vi havde fået at vide, at man kunne opbevare bagage i et aflåst vaskerum, men der var ingen lås påp vaskerummet.
- Roldan (8/5): -
- Vivien (9/5): Toller Aufenthalt in einer gemütlichen Ferienwohnung, sehr zentral und für Island gutes Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis. - Das Appartement lag zentral, wir konnten super zu Fuß in die umliegende Innenstadt und zu den wichtigsten Busstops gehen.
Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, warm und gemütlich. Die kleine Küchenzeile hatte alles, was wir benötigten. Wir haben uns wunderbar wohlgefühlt. Sogar die Nordlichter konnten wir vom Balkon aus sehen.
Wir können diese Ferienwohnung sehr empfehlen und würden dort wieder buchen.
Der Check In und Check Out erfolgte problemlos und unkompliziert.
- Priscilla (3/5): Not worth the location - Location was good, but that is the only positive review. The bathroom was dirty, the shower curtain was old and moldy. There was a "pantry" in the kitchen with 2 dirty socks just thrown in there. In the bathroom closet, there were 2 dirty towels. Seems like they didn't clean the restroom at all. I only used a glass cup to drink water but I had to wash it before because just in general the kitchen and restroom area were dirty.
- Polina (6/5): Good location, not so good service - At Genius lvl3 it's the first time ever I'm going to leave a negative review, but having to turn the place upside down in search of toilet paper upon checking in is a new one to me. Never in my life have I been greeted with an empty toilet paper holder upon check-in. The shower was dirty, the switch between overhead and handheld was broken off and there was someone's hair on the sofa. Cherry on top was a knock on the door few minutes before the checkout curfew saying that we need to hurry up.

- Ting -yu (8/5): -
- Janne (7/5): Fin, men lidt mørk lejlighed med god plads og det der skal være. For få håndklæder. - Fint overnatingssted centralt beliggende i Reykjavik. Rimeligt med plads og fine køkkenfaciliteter.
Super med mulighed for at vaske i vaskehuset lige uden for lejligheden.
Roligt område. God seng. Lejligheden var ret mørk, da den lå en halv etage under stueplan. Der manglede håndklæder - der var kun 2 badehåndklæder og 2 alm. og vi var 2 personer der i 5 dage. Fandt selv håndklæder i tørretumbleren i vaskehuset som vi tog og satte så selv en vask over med de håndklæder vi havde brugt 😊
- Yee Ki (7/5): - 近購物街,教堂,巴士站,附近就有超市,位置方便但很寧靜 訂了露台房,但錯給了地下的房間,燈光有點偏暗。
- Vladimir Zak (9/5): nice place for a few days in Reykiavik - good place for a fwe nights in Reykiavik, for a couple. We stayed 2 nights. Always found a parking on the street - and you have to start PARKA each day in the morning unless you want to be fined :-)
Room is not big - but comon, this is the capital :-) - it is not small though. And tyou have small living room as a bonus. Shower was OK though dated. nothing really. not fancy, simple - yet not too expensive either.
- Noelia (7/5): Excelente ubicación, con fallas de mantenimiento y limpieza. - Muy buena ubicación, y departamento amplio y bastante completo. Con lo necesario para cocinar y descansar confortablemente. Varias fallas de mantenimiento y limpieza. El departamento tiene auto ingreso y estás por tu cuenta, no hay ningún tipo de asistencia. Les escribimos para informar que no había agua caliente y nunca nos respondieron. Una pena por qué el departamento en general está muy bien.
- Gustavo (7/5): Boa localização, mas precisa de reparos - O apartamento é muito bem localizado e limpo O chuveiro. As vezes a água vinha quente e depois esfriava, a calefação poderia ser mais forte, pouca iluminação na cozinha, inclusive com lâmpadas queimadas durante a estadia e o estacionamento da igreja é gratuito e próximo, porém difícil de conseguir lugar
- Santiago (9/5): Apartamento céntrico y equipado - Es muy céntrico, bien equipado, con vistas, iluminado y amplio. Tienen detalles de bienvenida y además puedes lavar y secar la ropa. Lo recomiendo. El anuncio indica parking y no es correcto. Lo hay de pago en la calle o gratis unas calles más arriba.
- Amanda (6/5): Location central. and it was clean/ - The main room was fine, but we also needed the pull out bed and there was no additional bedding for the pull out bed. Thankfully, there were 2 duvets and I was able to use a blanket, otherwise it would have been lying straight on the mattress. Locations was good. not too far from the main area.
- NAOAKI (7/5): -
- Díaz López (5/5): Te ofrecen lo justo - Hola, los apartamentos son grandes y están muy céntricos, en la calle de atrás tienes la famosa calle Laugavegur, y a 5 min está la iglesia La Hallgrímskirkja , está en una zona muy tranquila sin ruidos de la calle, en limpieza están con un 5 pelado Los apartamento en la limpieza y estado deja bastante que desear, el horno no fuimos capaces de utilizarlo por lo sucio que estaba, en el baño la llave de la luz estaba rota, jabón en la ducha a media estancia nos quedamos sin jabón, están muy justitos para el dineral que vale la estancia.
- Constance (8/5): - Location and set up. Couldn’t get in early. Had to drag luggage around. Laundry room as advertised doesn’t have a door knob much less a lock.
- GCImbaro (8/5): - Posizione ottima, appartamento pulito e confortevole Non c'era uno spazio chiuso per il deposito bagagli
- Alfredo (6/5): -
- Shane (9/5): -
- Tiziana (7/5): Piacevole nel complesso - La comodità è la grandezza dell’alloggio La vista sui bidoni della spazzatura
- Michael (8/5): Schöne Unterkunft in zentraler Lage - Sehr zentrale Lage! Man kann alles zu Fuß erkunden.
Die Unterkunft ist zudem gemütlich. Die Küchenausstattung ist einwandfrei für einen kurzen Aufenthalt. Das Bad ist renovierungsbedürftig!
- Olga (9/5): Great place right in the center! - Very detailed instructions with codes to the doors were provided in the email sent several days in advance. Apartment had plenty of kitchenware, pots and pans, silverware. Beds were comfortable, location is super! there is laundry (washer/drier) on premises available to the guests for free. Tiny issues, nothing crucial: the toilet flush buttons cover was not affixed properly and was falling off frequently. The shower exhaust was missing the cover completely. There were only 4 mugs and since our group is big on tea drinking we would appreciate one more set of big mugs.
- Anna (8/5): -
- Badalamenti Salvatore (6/5): -
- Paul (9/5): - Le proprio répond rapidement. Très bien situé.
- Yi Lai (7/5): -
- Roger (6/5): Very poor value for money - Door and window broken - no security
- Yuli (4/5): Disappointed, and no recommend. - Location is good, Check in and Check out are easy. Quick response. Feel a bit uncomfortable communication at beginning about untrue information, second is the clean work, looks like no clean only change the sheets and towel.
- Rachel (7/5): - Prime location. Comfortable bed. Great kitchen. Paying for street parking. Bathroom floor was dirty.
